The Therapist Self-Care Audit is a guided reflection tool designed to help mental health professionals assess their overall wellbeing and sustainability in practice. By rating key areas—emotional, physical, professional, relational, and spiritual—you can quickly identify which domains of self-care are thriving and which may need more attention. Use your results to set meaningful goals, enhance your resilience, and ensure you’re showing up as your best self for the clients you serve.
