Counsellor’s Corner: Do Personality Tests Work?

Personality tests are everywhere, ranging from the MBTI to the Big Five to other fluffier and fun ones you find on the internet. So what can we learn about ourselves through these tests?

Licensed counsellor Alan Yong joins us on this episode of Counsellor’s Corner to dive into the world of personality tests.
