Tool guide

Learn more about this tool

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Balanced Capture

The assessment keeps problem effects and preferred-story material visible together so the record does not become deficit-only.

Partial Assessment

Partial records are valid. Missing areas are shown as incomplete without being treated as clinical failure.

History

Repeated assessments can be compared over time while preserving the structure of the original record.

Does the demo include the exact six-part assessment prompts?

No. The source record references a six-part tool but does not supply the exact prompts, so the demo does not invent them.

Does Double-Storied Assessment produce a diagnosis?

No. It organizes entered material into a balanced assessment record without diagnostic conclusions or scoring.

Can the client help complete it?

Yes. Completion mode can be collaborative in-session or practitioner-only entry.

What is saved from the demo?

The tool, completion mode, and any valid supplied section configuration are saved. Fictional assessment content is not saved as real client data.
