The Self-Assessment Kiosk
The Self-Assessment Kiosk is a way to learn more about your mental and physical health. By completing the full bundle of surveys you will be provided with a supportive reflection of how you are doing both physically and emotionally. Often this is a helpful way to gain information and perspective at the beginning, and throughout the process of therapy.

How self-compassionate are you?
The self-compassion  survey provides you with a check-up on how kind you tend to be towards yourself, things you can try to soften your own hard edges, as well as some self-compassion guided meditations and exercises.
