Understand How You Express, React, Listen, and Repair
Communication is not just about what you say — it’s about how you say it, what you avoid saying, and how you respond when emotions are involved. Many communication struggles are not caused by a lack of skills, but by emotional patterns, defensiveness, fear of conflict, or learned behaviors from past relationships and family dynamics.
 
This Communication Self-Assessment is designed to help you identify your communication patterns, especially during stress, conflict, or emotionally charged situations. It explores how you express needs, listen to others, manage emotional reactions, handle feedback, avoid or engage in difficult conversations, and approach repair after conflict.
 
The goal of this assessment is self-awareness, not blame. Communication breakdowns often happen automatically, without intention. By identifying these patterns, you can begin to understand how your communication style may be contributing to misunderstandings, emotional distance, or recurring conflict — and what needs to shift for healthier connection.
 
This self-assessment is educational, not diagnostic, and can be used as a starting point for personal reflection, relationship growth, or deeper therapeutic work.
