What You Get from the Free Assessment

Your Shadow Profile

A personalized breakdown of your dominant shadow patterns — the recurring emotional reactions, relationship dynamics, and self-sabotage loops that show up without your permission.

Emotional Trigger Map

A clear map of the situations, words, and behaviors that set off your strongest reactions — and why those triggers exist beneath the surface.

Integration Starting Point

A practical first step tailored to your specific patterns, not a generic exercise. Built from Carl Jung's analytical psychology and adapted by AI to your responses.

Shadow Work vs Therapy: What's the Difference?

Shadow work is a structured self-reflection practice rooted in Carl Jung's analytical psychology — it is not therapy and not a substitute for professional mental health care. Therapy is a clinical relationship with a licensed professional. ShadowWork is a private self-exploration tool: a free 22-question assessment maps your dominant shadow patterns, then AI-guided sessions help you reflect on them at your own pace. ShadowWork does not diagnose, treat, or replace clinical care. Many people use shadow work alongside therapy; some use it on its own.

Shadow Patterns the Assessment Identifies

  • Projection — qualities you criticize in others that you unconsciously carry yourself.
  • Repetition compulsion — relationship dynamics or conflicts that keep recurring in new situations.
  • Disowned traits — desires, instincts, or strengths you have learned to suppress or deny.
  • Emotional triggers — situations, words, or behaviors that set off disproportionate reactions.
  • Persona conflicts — gaps between the self you present to the world and your inner experience.
