‘Interpreting your profile' tests
Today's lifestyles cause lots of stress, because of the growing expectations of the community in general therefore knowing what type of person you are; ‘interpreting your profile' tests will be made available. Advice will be given on matters such as how to have good relationships considering the type of person you are.
Signs of a beginning depression are often not recognized by the person him/herself or by the surroundings. Tests on how to recognize this will also be available including advice on what to do about your feelings. Timely recognition of mental problems can, in the long run avoid serious problems.
We hope to be able to make it a fun day for you, the tests are a fun way to get to know yourself and self help tools are a great asset to help you function well.
