A personality assessment is an excellent way to gain insight into your unique perspectives, patterns, coping styles, and ways of relating to others. It can be completed at any point during the course of psychotherapy, or offered as a stand-alone service for individuals who are already engaged in psychotherapy.

What is Personality Assessment?

 

A comprehensive personality assessment provides a deep understanding of how you think, feel, and relate to others. Unlike quick online quizzes, a professional assessment integrates clinical expertise and evidence-based tools to offer meaningful insight into your unique personality structure. This process can help clarify patterns that may underlie difficulties in relationships, work, or emotional well-being, and it can guide more effective therapy, personal growth, and life decisions. By understanding the strengths and vulnerabilities that shape your experiences, you can make lasting changes with greater self-awareness and confidence.

How does it work?

​

I use a research-based assessment procedure designed to provide a rich, in-depth understanding of your personality functioning. The process may be conducted over the course of psychotherapy or through a series of clinical interviews in which we explore your life experiences, relationships, emotions, and ways of coping. I use the gathered information, to create a detailed psychological profile that integrates both your areas of strength and those that may contribute to current challenges.

​

Unlike questionnaires that rely only on self-report, the process combines your personal perspective with a clinician’s expert understanding, resulting in a nuanced, individualized portrait of your personality. The findings can clarify patterns that underlie difficulties in mood, self-esteem, or relationships, and can also highlight your personal resources and adaptive capacities.

​

Once your assessment is complete, we review the results together in a feedback session, where you’ll receive a clear, personalized summary of your profile and discuss how these insights can guide treatment, personal growth, or other goals you may have.
