Collaborative Entry
Client contribution can be used for lived-context and identity-related information the person chooses to share, with the option to skip sensitive items.
Important Limits
The tool does not provide standardized ratings, severity scores, diagnostic labels, fixed identity categories, or automatic intervention recommendations.
Does the profile force identity labels?
No. Identity-related information is optional and should reflect what the person chooses to share.
Is this a diagnostic instrument?
No. It is a formulation and mapping tool for assessment interpretation and intervention planning.
Can clients contribute information?
Yes. A collaborative contribution view may gather high-level lived-context information, while the practitioner controls the final formulation.
