Free Mental Health Self Assessment
This free self-assessment is designed to help you identify common symptoms related to anxiety, depression, and stress. It is not a diagnosis but may help you decide whether speaking with a licensed therapist could be helpful.
How This Mental Health Check Works
This short questionnaire asks about common mental health experiences such as:
Is This a Diagnosis?
No. This self-assessment is a screening tool, not a medical diagnosis. Only a licensed mental health professional can provide a formal evaluation. If your results indicate elevated symptoms, we may recommend scheduling an appointment with one of our licensed therapists in Massachusetts. A full evaluation will involve a clinical interview and, if appropriate, a personalized treatment plan.
Who Should Take This Assessment?
This screening may be helpful if you are:
- Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally stuck
- Experiencing persistent sadness or anxiety
- Having difficulty sleeping
- Noticing changes in focus or motivation
- Unsure whether therapy is right for you
The assessment is also useful for those who simply want a baseline check on their mental health — similar to checking blood pressure for physical health.
It is completely free, anonymous in use (though we ask for contact information to return results and resources), and available at any time.
Your Privacy
Your information, such as your name, email, and phone is kept confidential and used only to help connect you with appropriate mental health resource.
Understanding Your Results & Next Steps
After completing the questionnaire, you will receive one of three general result categories: minimal, mild-to-moderate, or moderate-to-severe symptoms. These categories are based on standardized, validated screening tools such as the PHQ-9 for depression and GAD-7 for anxiety.
Minimal symptoms
Your responses suggest low levels of distress. You may benefit from self-care strategies, regular check-ins, or preventive resources.
Mild-to-moderate symptoms
This range often indicates that talk therapy, support groups, or lifestyle adjustments could be helpful. We can help you explore low-cost options.
Moderate-to-severe symptoms
Your responses suggest significant emotional distress. We strongly recommend speaking with a licensed mental health professional within the next two weeks.
Your Right to a Good Faith Estimate for Follow-Up Care
If you decide to schedule therapy based on your screening results, federal law (the No Surprises Act) protects you from unexpected medical bills. As a patient who is uninsured or choosing not to use insurance, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of all expected charges before your first appointment.
This estimate will include the cost per therapy session, the anticipated number of sessions over a 12-month period, and any additional fees (e.g., for assessments or reports). If you receive a final bill that is at least $400 more than the estimate, you have the right to dispute the charge. Keep a copy of your Good Faith Estimate for your records.
