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

When It Is Used

Use it when therapy planning needs to account for the client’s own view of resources, vulnerabilities, values, history, or traits.

Sensitive Information

Clients should be able to skip, leave vague, or mark factors unclear without forced disclosure.

Important Limitation

The tool does not infer personality traits, vulnerabilities, resources, or risk conclusions without user input.

Does the tool classify personal factors automatically?

No. Supportive, disruptive, mixed, or unclear roles come from the client or practitioner input, not system inference.

Can a client leave an entry vague?

Yes. The experience should avoid forcing disclosure beyond what the client chooses to provide.

Are fixed personal-factor categories included?

No. The product specification does not define fixed categories or personality measures.

What gets saved?

The Driftwood / Personal Factors Map tool is saved. Fictional demo entries and notes are not saved as real client data by default.
