Discovering Your Strengths
💬 Why Do We Use Assessments in Therapy?
Sometimes, understanding what’s going on inside us can feel like solving a puzzle. Assessments can give us some of the missing pieces.
In therapy, we don’t just focus on problems—we focus on your potential. Assessments help us learn about:
- How your brain works 🧠
- What you’re naturally good at 🌱
- How you feel and why 💬
- What helps you thrive 🌟
They’re not tests to “pass or fail.” They’re tools to help us:
- Understand your experiences better
- Build goals that make sense for YOU
- Celebrate your unique identity
- Create coping strategies that work with your strengths—not against them
