About Toolbox Quizzes

Simply being aware of some aspects which drive and influence our daily lives is a powerful first step to turning inward with curiosity and care, and which may initiate further ideas/choices.

Quizzes can be conducted with or without a support person, and are useful for individuals to:

  • Build better awareness of how they see themselves.
  • Explore their inner world with curiosity, not judgment.
  • Support emotional wellbeing, creative expression, and personal growth.

And for professionals to:

  • Aid counsellors and psychologists to use these tools at their own discretion.
  • Coach and educate to foster metacognition and reflective learning.
  • Further narrative therapy, dialogical therapy, and cognitive-behavioural approaches.

Quizzes may additionally prove beneficial for user selected third parties (IE in a pre-employment assessment situation, sports coaching, or professional counselling environment).
