Depression Screener

Recognize the signs, reclaim your sense of self

Depression is more than sadness—it’s a change in how the mind and body process energy, motivation, and hope. The Pax Healing Depression Screener is a confidential, evidence-based self-assessment designed to help you understand whether your experiences may align with depressive symptoms that deserve professional attention. Awareness is the first step toward healing, and this tool can help you take it with clarity and compassion.
Why take a depression screening
Depression can affect anyone, at any stage of life. Left unrecognized, it can impact relationships, work, and health. By completing this brief assessment, you’ll gain a clearer picture of whether your symptoms might indicate a depressive disorder and what steps you can take next.

You may benefit from screening if you experience:

  • Persistent sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness

     

  • Loss of interest in activities once enjoyed

     

  • Fatigue, low motivation, or trouble concentrating

     

  • Changes in appetite or sleep patterns

     

  • Thoughts of guilt, worthlessness, or self-blame
This screener is not a diagnosis—it’s a starting point to understand your emotional health and consider seeking professional support.
Why take a depression screening
What to expect

The screener takes just a few minutes to complete. You’ll be asked to reflect on how often you’ve experienced specific thoughts, feelings, or behaviors in recent weeks. Your responses are confidential and reviewed only with your permission.

Once finished, you’ll receive feedback and, if needed, recommendations for next steps such as therapy, medication evaluation, or structured outpatient treatment.
