How This Quiz Works
This is a couples-therapy recommendation engine — not a diagnostic test. Each answer maps to a set of evidence-based couples therapy approaches that tend to fit that pattern. Your top three matches are the approaches that came up most often across your answers.
Use the result as a starting point. A licensed couples therapist can help you decide which approach is genuinely the best fit for your relationship.
A Quick Note on the Approaches
- EFT focuses on emotional bonds and is especially strong for disconnection and attachment-driven conflict.
- Gottman Method is the most research-backed skills-and-friendship approach, strong on communication and conflict.
- Imago centers childhood-of-origin patterns and uses structured dialogue.
- CBCT applies cognitive-behavioral techniques to specific recurring problems.
- Discernment Counseling is for mixed-agenda couples deciding whether to stay together.
- SFBT is brief, strengths-based, and good for relatively recent problems.
