Depression Self-Assessment Tool

Welcome to the Hera Therapy Depression Self-Assessment

Taking this step to check in with yourself shows incredible courage and self-compassion. This gentle depression self-assessment tool is here to support you in reflecting on your mental well-being over the past two weeks.

Our caring depression screening tool draws from the PHQ-9, a trusted depression assessment instrument that professionals use to lovingly guide people toward understanding their feelings.

For each question in this supportive depression self test, please choose how often you’ve experienced these feelings in the last 14 days – remember, there are no wrong answers:

  • Not at all
  • Several days
  • More than half the days
  • Nearly every day

Your brave honesty with this depression assessment tool can help illuminate your inner world and current emotional landscape. While this self-assessment isn’t a medical diagnosis, it’s a meaningful first step on your journey toward the care, healing, and support you deserve. You matter, and reaching out for help is a sign of strength.
