Understand what makes you, you.

Personality testing uses validated, science-based questionnaires to describe your traits, strengths and patterns — a considered picture that can guide growth, decisions and direction.

When it helps

Reasons people consider personality testing.

Many of us find it hard to describe our own personality. A validated assessment offers language and structure — useful at a crossroads, or simply to understand yourself better.

  • You are going through a life transition — a career change, a new relationship or retirement.
  • You want to understand your strengths and how to use them.
  • You would like objective input to guide career or coaching decisions.
  • You are in therapy and want a clearer picture of your patterns to support the work.
  • You are curious about what makes you unique and want a considered, evidence-based view.

Every assessment starts with a clear question. We agree on what you want to learn before we begin, and make sure the report answers it.

What we measure

A considered picture of your traits.

Validated, evidence-supported questionnaires administered and interpreted by a qualified psychologist — not an online quiz.

Personality traits

Broad, well-researched trait measures such as the NEO PI-R and the Six Factor Personality Questionnaire.

Clinical & interpersonal

Tools such as the Personality Assessment Inventory that inform therapy and self-understanding.

Character strengths

Strengths-based measures such as the VIA Survey that highlight what you do best.

Report & feedback

A clear written report and a conversation that turns results into practical insight.

Personality testing is conducted by a qualified psychologist. Every assessment includes a feedback session where we explain the findings in plain language.

The process

See the full fee schedule
  • No Medicare rebate: personality testing on its own sits outside Medicare, so a Mental Health Care Plan does not apply.
  • As part of therapy: when personality testing forms part of eligible treatment, Medicare rebates may apply to those sessions — ask your GP.
  • Private health: some extras policies contribute towards psychological assessment — check your cover.
Common questions

Things people ask before booking.

How is this different from an online personality quiz?
Online quizzes are for entertainment. Our personality testing uses validated, science-based questionnaires, administered and interpreted by a qualified psychologist, with a written report and a feedback session. You will receive a written quote first.
Do I need a referral for personality testing?
No. You can book personality testing directly. If it forms part of therapy, a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan may allow Medicare rebates on eligible sessions.
Is personality testing covered by Medicare?
Personality testing on its own is not covered by Medicare. When it is part of eligible psychological treatment, rebates may apply to those sessions with a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan. Some private health extras also contribute.
How long does it take?
Most personality assessments involve a short intake, the questionnaires themselves and a feedback session. Many questionnaires can be completed in your own time. We will give you a clear timeline and a written quote before you start.
Who receives my results?
Your report is released only to you, or to people you nominate in writing, apart from narrow legal exceptions your psychologist explains up front.
