A map inward. A return to self. A poetic reflection of the healing path meant for you.
Take this healing archetype quiz to discover the psychological and spiritual patterns that guide your unique path toward growth and transformation.
These archetypes represent some of the versions of yourself you may encounter along the healing path.
The quiz is a highly subjective take on human experience. Call it “phenomenological” if you want to be fancy or think of it as a virtual mood ring if that’s more your style.
Feel free to take the quiz as many times as you like. None of these character types are permanent or binding, but you might just meet your shadow.
Meet your healing archetype.

A healing archetype is a symbolic blueprint of your patterns, responses, and longings that guides how you grow, relate, and heal. This quiz maps your archetype to a therapy approach that aligns with your strengths and supports your challenges.
This quiz is designed for anyone curious about therapy, healing, or personal growth. It’s a self-assessment tool meant to demystify therapy jargon and help you find a therapy style that fits—while sparking some honest self-reflection along the way.
Your responses and results are completely private and confidential. No email signup or personal information is required. The only data collected is the timestamp.
