Original Price:

Masking is exhausting, often invisible, and rarely named directly in clinical work. This assessment gives it a structure. Fifteen Likert-scale items across two scored dimensions — adaptive behavior and authentic self-expression — generate an interpretation of masking patterns with personalized suggestions, a visual heatmap of item responses, and an encrypted result link for secure clinician delivery.
What's inside: 15 rated items across 2 scored dimensions (Adaptive / Authentic) · Arc gauge score display · Tension Compass — visual plot of how the two scores relate · Item-by-item animated response heatmap · Personalized interpretation cards based on score pattern · Tailored next-step suggestions · 5 optional reflection prompts · Encrypted result URL for clinician sharing · Clinician Portal — generate PIN-encrypted client links and decrypt submitted results · Clinician facilitation notes · Full accessibility toolbar
How it works: After purchase you'll download a single file. Open it in any browser. Clients can take the assessment directly, or you can generate a secure link for them to complete independently. Their results are encrypted into a URL — only you, with your PIN, can unlock them. The results include scored gauges, a visual compass, item heatmap, and interpretation. No data stored anywhere. No server. PHI-safe by design.

Moderate Authenticity
Adaptive Score: Moderate Adaptation
You show moderate levels of adapting and masking. This is very common — especially for neurodivergent folks or anyone who's learned that fitting in makes things smoother. It usually reflects real skill at reading social contexts, and it also costs real energy.
Authenticity Score: Moderate
There's solid ground here — some moments and spaces where you can be real. The work may be about noticing what makes those spaces feel safe, so you can intentionally build more of them.
Self-Exploration
The Mask Inventory
Pick one context where you feel you mask the most. Write, draw, or voice-memo what you do differently there — your posture, your words, your energy. Then ask: what am I protecting?
