Personality Assessments

If you are unsure about how you may benefit from therapy, a therapeutic assessment with collaborative feedback may be the place to start. The process is designed to help you understand yourself and clarify your goals.

Therapeutic Assessment

The process involves meeting together to discuss your history, current situation. Getting to know you personally is invaluable information in learning how to best interpret and share the results and recommendations with you. In this process, we will try to listen to you intently and get to know you as a complex individual. We will also form questions together that you want to be answered. After our meeting, you will complete a personality assessment.

Collaborative Feedback

After we get the results of the assessment, your assessor will write out their thoughts about how to interpret them with what they already know about you. Next, you will meet together to discuss the results. What is important is finding what is useful to help you understand yourself. Lastly, your assessor will write you a letter reviewing the discussion of the results and how to help you use them in your relationships, work, therapy, etc…

Questions People Ask

Everyone has questions they have about themselves, some feel fairly benign while others may feel like they haunt you. Collaborative assessment is a process designed to specifically help you answer questions about yourself. Some examples of questions people ask:

  • How do I feel less depressed?
  • Why am I attracted to people who treat me bad?
  • How can I feel close to people?
  • What are my personality strengths and weaknesses?
  • How do I make the most of therapy?
  • Can you help me identify my feelings?

Personality assessment is a helpful way to get to know yourself better, whether it is used to answer questions, deepen ongoing individual therapy, or gain better insight for your relationships.
