Deeper assessments

When the Snapshot isn't enough, three ways to go further.

The free Snapshot names the patterns. These three assessments go underneath them: more questions, a written report, and private time with Dr. Jaffe to work out what the report actually means for you.

Each one is a complete piece of work on its own. Most men who go past the free Snapshot start with the Pattern Decoder.

Educational, self-reflective assessments based on your own answers. Not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for therapy. The included review is a conversation about your report, not a therapy session.

The three assessments

Depth, report, and time with Dr. Jaffe increase at each step. The price reflects the time.

How it works

The same four steps for every assessment. Nothing is booked until you've finished the questions, so the review is about your report, not a blank slate.

All assessments are educational, self-reflective tools based on your own answers. They are not a medical or psychological diagnosis or a treatment recommendation. The included Results Review is a discussion of your report; it is not psychotherapy and does not establish a therapist-client relationship. Reviews are booked after assessment completion, subject to availability, and should be scheduled within 60 days of purchase. Not an emergency service; if you are in crisis, call 988 or 911. See the privacy policy for how your answers are handled.
