Therapeutic Assumptions Audit
A structured assessment for counsellors and psychotherapists, designed to identify evidence gaps, clinical assumptions and bias risks that may shape therapeutic work.
What it measures
The audit combines evidence-alignment scoring, risk weighting and CPD mapping across core areas of therapeutic practice.
98 scored items across 10 domains.
This audit is an educational CPD tool. It is not a regulatory judgement, diagnosis, fitness-to-practise assessment or formal evaluation of competence.
Answer clinical belief items
Questions test professional assumptions, clinical reasoning and confidence around contested or commonly misunderstood areas.
Scores are weighted by risk
Missing a low-risk theory item is not scored the same as missing a high-risk assumption about abuse, disability or conversion-practice risk.
Receive CPD priorities
Results show overall evidence alignment, domain-level scores and recommended CPD areas. Useful, not smug. A merciful distinction.
Areas covered
The first version includes these domains. You can add, remove or edit items in lib/questionBank.js.
Built for professional reflection, not public shaming.
Results are worded as CPD priorities and assumption-risk patterns. The aim is to help practitioners see where further learning is needed without turning the exercise into a moral identity test.
Use this as a CPD audit, supervisor discussion tool or paid professional report. Avoid presenting it as a definitive measure of whether someone is “biased”. Humans, tragically, remain more complex than a pie chart.
