Where you are now
Now that we have been working together, let's take a look at how things are going.
The first set of questions are the ones you took when we got started.
The second part is new. It shapes what I recommend we do next.
Please send this back in three days.
First
Same area as before
Pick the area you chose at the start. The statements change with it, so choosing a different one would mean comparing two different things.
Your answers save in this browser as you go, so you can stop and come back. Nothing is sent anywhere until you send it yourself at the end.
Because they save here, they stay in this browser until you clear them. Use this to start over, to leave without finishing, or to wipe your answers from a shared computer when you're done.
Part 1
Psychological flexibility
Check every statement that feels true for you now.
Part 2
What our ongoing work is about
For each, mark how true it feels right now.
Answer quickly. Your first reaction is more useful than a considered one.
Part 3
In your own words
Last step
Send it back
