One-on-one personality typing

Find the type that fits you best.

If online tests keep giving you different results, talking it through usually helps more than taking another one. I interview you, study your answers between calls, then walk you through your best-fit type and the reasoning behind it.

Is this for you?

When a session helps most

A test can only score how you describe yourself. In a conversation, I can ask follow-up questions, hear real examples from your life, and check which functions actually explain them.

A session gives you a well-reasoned best fit. It isn't a diagnosis, and your type doesn't decide what you can or can't do.

  • You've had two or three different results from online tests.
  • You're stuck between two types, like INFP and INFJ or INTJ and INTP.
  • You know your four letters but not why they fit you.
  • You want to understand someone close to you as well as yourself.

How it works

Two calls, with time to think in between

You won't be given a result on the spot. The Typing Session and Pair Session both follow these steps.

  1. Book a time

    Choose your session and a time in the booking form below.

  2. The interview

    I ask how you take in information and make decisions, using everyday examples. There are no right answers to prepare.

  3. My analysis

    Between calls, I review your answers and work out which type fits best.

  4. The follow-up call

    I walk you through the result and the reasoning. Ask questions or push back; your examples are part of the evidence.

  5. Your written breakdown

    A detailed breakdown arrives by email, with 30% off your type's books and guides.

Questions

Before you book

Which session should I choose?

If you're unsure of your type, start with the Typing Session. If you want two people typed and want to understand how they fit together, choose the Pair Session. If you're already confident in your type and want to apply it to your life, choose the Growth Session.

Why are there two calls?

So your result comes from careful analysis rather than a guess made during the interview. I review your answers between calls, then explain the result on the second call. It also allows you to tell me anything i might have missed.

What if I don't agree with my result?

Feel free to say so on the follow-up call! Im happy to change my reasoning and we can work together to figure out the best fit for you.

Do I need to prepare anything?

Nope! Just answer honestly about how you usually think and act, feel free to share as much as you are comfortable with.

How does the 30% discount work?

It's sent with your written breakdown and applies to your type's books and guides for 48 hours.

Why talk it through

A conversation can pick up what a test can't.

Tests are a great place to start. They can only work with how you describe yourself, though, and it's natural to answer as the person you'd like to be on a good day. That's often why results shift from one test to the next.

In a session I can ask follow-up questions, hear real examples from your life, and look at how you actually think and decide. We get to a best fit together, and you'll understand the reasoning behind it.

About me

I'm James. I have a BA in Psychology and I've spent the last seven years studying Jungian typology. I built OnType to explain the 16 types through the cognitive functions, drawing on the people who developed the theory.

The work I draw on

  • Carl Jung
  • John Beebe
  • David Keirsey
  • Dario Nardi
  • Linda Berens

The process

What happens after you book

There's nothing to prepare. We start with a conversation, and I explain the reasoning as we go.

  1. Book a time

    Choose the session and time that work for you. Your confirmation email will have everything you need.

  2. We talk through your type

    For a Typing Session, I'll ask about how you tend to think, make decisions, and approach real situations in your life.

  3. I review what we discussed

    I take time between calls to look over your answers, compare the possibilities, and work toward the type that fits best.

  4. We go through the result

    On the follow-up call, I'll explain the type I arrived at, why it fits, and where the other possibilities fell short.

  5. You get a written breakdown

    Afterward, I'll send you a written explanation of your result so you can come back to it whenever you like.

Choosing a session

Not sure which one to book?

The main difference is what you want to figure out.

Typing Session

If you're unsure of your personality type or want a second opinion, start here. We'll work toward your best-fit type together.

Pair Session

Choose this if two of you want to understand both of your types and how they fit together.

Growth Session

Choose this if you already feel confident in your type and want to use it to think through relationships, work, personal growth, or a specific situation.

More questions

Good to know

Something not covered here? Ask me when you book and I'll happily answer.

Are sessions online or in person?

Everything is online, and you choose the format: video, phone call or live text chat. Pick whichever feels most comfortable. Your booking confirmation email has all the details.

Who is the Pair Session for?

Any two people who want to understand each other better: partners, close friends, or family. I type you both in the first call, look at both types and how they pair between calls, then go through it all with you on the follow-up call. You each get your own written breakdown, plus one for your pairing.

What do we talk about in a Growth Session?

Whatever you'd like help with, seen through your type: relationships, work, personal growth, or a specific situation you're working through. It's one longer call with no typing interview, so it's for people who already feel confident in their type.

What if I'm nervous about being "typed"?

That's completely normal. There are no right or wrong answers, and nothing to prepare. We simply talk about how you tend to think and make decisions, at your pace.
