Choose your screening

Both use widely used, validated questionnaires that clinicians rely on. You can take one or both.

Anxiety screening

GAD-7 · 7 questions · about 2 minutes

For worry that’s hard to switch off, feeling on edge, trouble relaxing, or restlessness that’s been getting in the way.

Depression screening

PHQ-9 · 9 questions · about 3 minutes

For low mood, losing interest in things you used to enjoy, changes in sleep or energy, or feeling down more days than not.

Anxiety screening1 of 7
Over the last 2 weeks, how often have you been bothered by the following?

This is a screening, not a diagnosis. It reflects how the last two weeks have felt, and results can be affected by stress, sleep, health and what’s going on in your life right now. Only a licensed professional can assess what’s behind your symptoms.

Questions

Is this really free?

Yes. The screening and the 15-minute consultation are both free, with no obligation to book therapy.

Do I have to give my name or email?

No. You can take the screening and see your result without sharing any contact details. The consultation form is separate and optional.

Will this tell me if I have anxiety or depression?

No. It’s a screening, not a diagnosis. It shows how strongly you’ve been affected by common symptoms over the last two weeks, which can be a helpful starting point for a conversation with a professional.

What happens in the free consultation?

A licensed therapist will talk through your result, answer your questions and explain options, including whether our practice is a good fit. We’ll reach out by your preferred method to find a time that works.

Do you take insurance?

Coverage depends on your plan. See Insurance and Programs, or ask during your free consultation.
