PHQ Depression Assessment

Welcome to the PHQ Depression Assessment, a valuable tool designed to help you understand your mental health status better. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) is a widely used, evidence-based assessment that evaluates the presence and severity of depressive symptoms over the past two weeks. This easy-to-complete questionnaire consists of nine questions that explore various aspects of your emotional well-being. By reflecting on your experiences, you can gain insights into your feelings and identify areas that may require attention. It is important to approach this assessment with honesty, as your responses play a critical role in shaping an understanding of your mental health. While this tool provides important insights and a score that indicates the severity of depressive symptoms, it is not designed to replace professional evaluation or diagnosis. We encourage you to consult with a qualified mental health professional if you have concerns about your mental health or wish to discuss the results further. Take a moment to engage with your feelings, and remember: understanding is the first step toward healing.
