Where you stand now

About 10 minutesBaseline measure

Three quick measures to close the week. You will take them again in week 4, so you can see what has moved.

Why measure

Change in how close you can let people get is slow and easy to miss. On a bad day it can feel as if nothing has shifted at all.

An honest number now gives you something to compare against later. There are no good or bad answers.

Structured therapies measure at the start and repeat the measure later, partly to see what is working and partly because seeing change in writing helps people keep going.

When someone gets close, how strong is the urge to pull away?
