The Practitioner Brief™
Start already oriented.

When your client has completed The Dating Diagnostic™, the Practitioner Brief™ turns their answers into a grounded, session-ready read of their patterns, tensions, and where the work can start, so your first session begins with clarity instead of intake.

Choose Your Access

For coaches, therapists, facilitators, and practitioners. Prepared with the client's consent.

What's inside, at a glance

Four moves the Brief makes for you before the first session.

Pattern map

What repeats across the record

Behaviors and relational themes that show up across responses, each with evidence, possible function, possible cost, and what still needs to be verified with the client.

Tensions

Where the client's words pull in different directions

Framed as growth, context, or competing needs rather than hypocrisy, with specific prompts to clarify in session.

Session guide

Inward, relational, behavioral questions

Pre sorted so you can pick what fits, balanced so the work doesn't locate the entire problem outside the client or inside them.

Guardrails

What the Brief won't tell you

Areas the Diagnostic can't verify, named up front, so nothing gets over read into motive, prediction, or diagnosis.

What you get

Walk into the first session already knowing where to look.

The Practitioner Brief™ is a structured, non-diagnostic briefing built from your client's own Dating Diagnostic™ responses. It gives you supported patterns and working hypotheses, not a diagnosis, so you can enter oriented, cut down on intake repetition, and spend the session on the work that matters.

It opens with an At-a-Glance read (presenting context, stated goal, dominant pattern, and a recommended starting point), then expands into the full picture across fourteen sections, each one pairing what the client reported with the limit that still applies.

This is a briefing to inform your inquiry, built from self-report. It supports your professional judgment. It doesn't replace your assessment, the conversation, or the client's own interpretation of their experience.

An At-a-Glance read · 14 structured sections

Everything you'd want before the first session, in one grounded document.

The brief leads with an At-a-Glance summary so you can orient in a minute, then opens into the detail and the evidence behind each finding.

Tensions & Places to Clarify

Responses that pull in different directions, framed as growth, context, or competing needs, not accusations of hypocrisy.

What's Working

Existing capacity and demonstrated progress to reinforce, separating awareness from change already visible in behavior.

M.I.N.D. Profile™

The client's relational-behavior archetypes and how their life and love patterns appear to interact.

Intimacy Signature™

An attachment-informed read of closeness, reassurance, independence, conflict, and emotional safety. Not a diagnosis.

Internal Experience

Self-trust, emotional conflict, and the client's relationship with their own needs, before focusing on partners.

Reciprocity & Dynamics

How emotional, practical, and decision-making labor may be distributed in the client's relationships.

Needs, Standards & Non-Negotiables

What the client prefers, what they require, what they'll discuss, and what action follows when a standard isn't met.

Language Worth Defining

Important relationship words the client uses without defining, so you and the client mean the same thing.

Initial Working Priorities

Evidence-based starting hypotheses: declared direction, what may interfere, and the fear, desire, and integration arc.

Session Questions

Balanced prompts across internal experience, relational dynamics, and observable behavior, to open the work.

Areas Not to Assume

Guardrails that protect the work from unsupported conclusions the Diagnostic can't verify.

Selected Evidence Trail

How major findings were formed, without a raw-response dump, each paired with the limit that still applies.

Good to know

Questions practitioners ask.

Is the Practitioner Brief™ a diagnosis or clinical assessment?
No. It's a non-diagnostic briefing built from the client's self-reported Dating Diagnostic™ responses. It offers supported patterns and working hypotheses to inform your inquiry. It supports your professional judgment and doesn't replace your assessment or the client's own interpretation.
How do you handle the client's consent and privacy?
With explicit consent. Nothing is prepared or delivered until the client consents to release their responses to you, and names where the brief should go. Their data stays private and is never shared without that consent.
Can I get a brief for a client who already completed The Dating Diagnostic™?
Yes. With your client's consent and payment, we can prepare a Practitioner Brief™ from their completed Dating Diagnostic™. Start with the request form and we'll set it up with you.
How much is it, and who pays?
For a new Diagnostic, choose Practitioner Brief Only or Full Access on this page; Stripe displays the price before you approve payment. The respondent then completes the Diagnostic and confirms consent and the practitioner who may receive the Brief. If your client already completed the Diagnostic, use the request form below so we can confirm the right next step.
How is this different from the Clarity Card™?
The Clarity Card™ is written for the individual, to get clear for themselves. The Practitioner Brief™ is written for you, the practitioner. It goes deeper into the patterns, tensions, and starting points that support the work you do together.
