The SCID-5-PD is a standardized questionnaire that helps screen for ten different personality disorders, as outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). This screening tool helps determine whether you exhibit traits associated with one or more of the disorders under DSM-5.
While the SCID-5-PD is not a standalone diagnostic instrument and therefore Daniel will not be able to offer you a formal diagnosis, yet it serves as a first step in understanding your personality patterns and behaviors.
This assessment is not available for download but a link will be provided.
Please complete the screening at least 48 hours prior to your meeting and send a quick email, letting your therapist know it has been completed. The therapist needs time to go over the details before meeting with you.
