How TherapyFit works
Most people start therapy with whichever approach their first available therapist uses. TherapyFit uses your answers to match you to the approach most likely to fit your specific patterns — before you start the search.
Answer a short set of questions
The quiz takes about 2–3 minutes. It asks about what feels hard right now, how you respond to stress, what already helps, and how you want therapy to feel. No diagnosis. No personal data collected.
Get matched to therapy approaches
The scoring uses evidence-informed patterns — not a checklist — to surface the approaches most likely to fit. Each result includes a plain-language explanation of why it came up and what to look for in a provider.

Go deeper with the advanced quiz
The standard quiz takes about two minutes. If you want more specificity — particularly around trauma, nervous system patterns, or relationship dynamics — the advanced quiz goes further.
