How it works
Three quiet minutes, and a clearer picture
Each check is a short, well-established questionnaire. You answer honestly, see what your score means in plain language, and choose what comes next, on your own or with Sean.
1
Pick a check
Choose the one that fits what you are noticing: worry, low mood, stress, or a general sense of how you are doing.
2
Answer honestly
A few questions, a couple of minutes, entirely on your device. Nothing is stored and no sign-up is needed.
3
See what it means
You get your score and what it does and does not tell you. Keep it to yourself, or bring it to a review with Sean.

The paid step, when you want it
Have Sean review your results with you
A score is a starting point, not the whole story. If you would like to understand what your results mean for you, book a 30-minute Results Review with Sean Lewis, a Canadian Certified Counsellor.
- A plain-language walk-through of your scores, in a private conversation
- Answers to your questions, and honest guidance on what could help
- A short written summary you keep, and a referral onward if that is the right step
The Results Review is a paid appointment. The free checks always stay free.
For employers and unions
Offer these check-ins to your people
Give your members a private, recurring way to check in on how they are doing, on a subscription. It pairs the free checks with an integrated report each person keeps.
Results stay private to each person. You never see an individual's answers or scores.
Private by design
Your answers never leave your device
This is the part most online checks get wrong. Ours are built so there is nothing to leak: the scoring happens in your browser, and we never see what you answered, whether you take a check for free or bring it to a paid review.
- Scored right in your browser, the moment you finish
- No name, no sign-up, no email required to take a check
- Nothing is stored or sent anywhere
- Take any check as many times as you like
Good to know
Questions people ask
Do I have to pay?
No. Every check is free to take and free to score, always. Booking a review with Sean to talk through your results is an optional paid step, and the free checks never sit behind a paywall.
Are these a diagnosis?
No. They are screening tools that measure symptoms; they do not diagnose. A high or low score is a good reason to start a conversation, not a conclusion on its own.
Who sees my answers?
No one. The check runs entirely in your browser, and nothing you answer is sent to us or stored anywhere. If you book a review, you choose what to share in the room.
What if my score is high?
It means these symptoms are worth paying attention to, not that something is wrong with you. Your results page points you toward next steps, and crisis support is always one tap away if you need it now.
Can my employer or anyone else see my results?
Never. Even where an organization offers these checks to its people, results belong to you alone. No employer, union, or third party ever sees an individual's answers or scores.
Who are these for?
Adults 19 and older who want a clearer sense of how they are doing. They are a starting point for reflection, not a substitute for care from a doctor or another qualified professional.
