Understand what's happening

The Career Health 360 Assessment

A psychologist-led career health review that clarifies what is actually happening — burnout, career distress, job dissatisfaction, or career misalignment — before you make your next high-stakes career move. It is not therapy, a psychological evaluation, or a clinical diagnosis.

The Career Health Assessment is a career health review, not therapy, a psychological evaluation, or a clinical diagnosis. It helps clarify whether your experience is most consistent with burnout, career distress, job dissatisfaction, career misalignment, or a combination of factors — in service of a career decision. It does not diagnose or treat any condition.

Why standard career assessments often aren't enough

Most career assessments examine a single component in isolation — your interests, your preferences, your strengths, your personality, or your skills. Those assessments are designed to answer narrower questions. They typically do not examine whether what you're experiencing reflects burnout, career distress, job dissatisfaction, career misalignment — or how those factors may be interacting.

The Career Health Assessment takes a broader, integrated look at the multiple factors shaping your experience of work — what actually drives high-stakes career decisions: burnout severity, Career Distress Response, and the degree of career misalignment — interpreted by a psychologist rather than an algorithm, and in service of a career decision, not a clinical evaluation.

If you'd like a free first look, the See the Pattern reflection is a private, five-minute self-exploration. It is a starting point, not a diagnosis.

What you receive

A preview of your career health findings

After your assessment, you walk away with a clear, evidence-based picture of what is actually happening — and direction on what to do about it. Here is what that looks like.

Your Career Health Debrief

The 90-Minute Career Health Debrief

A live, one-to-one conversation with Dr. Pérez-Litwin to make sense of the findings together and decide what comes next.

  • A shared understanding of what is actually driving your career distress
  • Whether your experience is burnout, career distress, job dissatisfaction, or career misalignment — and how they interact
  • A clear recommendation on whether to pause, adjust, or move — and in what order
  • An honest read on whether this is the right next step for you at all

Your assessment battery

What gets measured

A structured set of validated instruments completed before we meet, reviewed by Dr. Pérez-Litwin so your session starts with the full picture already in hand.

  • Your root causes, stress triggers, and friction points, mapped
  • The patterns shaping your day-to-day experience at work
  • What is working in your career, so it is protected rather than disrupted
  • Reviewed in full with you during your Career Health Debrief

The goal is not a label. It is clarity — so your next high-stakes decision rests on what is actually true, not on guesswork.

What is included

Two deliverables

Part 1

The Assessment Battery

You complete a comprehensive career health assessment battery — including the Career Distress Inventory, a validated burnout measure, a career identity and alignment review, a workplace environment assessment, a job satisfaction measure, and a wellbeing screening — designed to distinguish burnout, career distress, job dissatisfaction, and career misalignment.

Part 2

The 90-Minute Career Health Debrief

A live, one-to-one deep dive with Dr. Pérez-Litwin to review your findings, validate root causes, and map a clear next step — which may include advisory, organizational boundary redesign, sabbatical planning, or a career transition. You leave the session with clarity and direction, even when no written report is requested.

From findings to next steps

Where your results point you next

A career health review is not an endpoint — it is a starting point. Your findings clarify which path forward actually fits your situation. Here is how the assessment maps to what comes next.

If burnout or career distress is the dominant pattern

Begin Career Advisory

When the findings point to sustained career distress or burnout driving your situation, the next step is structured Career Advisory to regulate, reconnect, and realign your career around the life you intend to live.

Explore Career Advisory

If career misalignment is the core issue

Move into Career Advisory

When misalignment — not exhaustion — is driving the distress, advisory helps you redesign or transition the career structure itself, rather than simply recover from it.

Explore Career Advisory

If you are not yet sure which path fits

Start with the assessment

When the picture is mixed and the right next step is not obvious, the assessment gives you the clarity to choose advisory, a structural change, or a different direction with confidence.

Includes the full assessment battery, your 90-minute Career Health Debrief with Dr. Pérez-Litwin, and recommendations for what comes next.

If continued advisory is recommended
