Changing PTSD to PTSI

Take the Symptoms Questionnaire Created By Experts
Stella aims to heal the injury instead of just managing the symptoms. Stella's symptom questionnaire combines measures used by the American Psychological Association such as the PCL for PTSD, GAD-7 for Anxiety, PHQ for Depression, to help make sense of what you might be experiencing.
Notably, these standardised assessments are also utilised by mental health practitioners in Australia, ensuring their relevance and applicability. Take the symptoms questionnaire below and then schedule your free introductory consult with one of our care coordinators.
