About this assessment
This short version of the UCLA Loneliness Scale is used in large health studies. Loneliness is common, and it affects mood and health more than people expect.
Before you start
- How often do you feel…
- There are no right or wrong answers — go with your first instinct.
- Your answers are saved to your account. You decide whether to share them with your therapist.
This is a screening questionnaire, not a diagnosis. If you’re in crisis, get immediate support.
