Welcome to FCA where you will complete the Psychological component of your assessment process toward Deacon Formation. My name is Tim Heck and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with FCA. It is my hope that through the completion and discussion of several questionnaires by you and your spouse, as well as 90 minutes of your time in a face-to-face interview, I am able to provide a thorough, formal Psychological Assessment Report for each of you which will be sent, with your permission, to the Diocesan Deaconate Office. The ultimate objective is to provide another dimension of the assessment for the Church leadership to effectively discern for your participation and acceptance in Deacon Formation.

If you have any problems while completing these tests, please contact Tim Heck by E-Mail: timothyheck@sbcglobal.net

We need you to complete several online tests. Please click on the links below, one at a time, complete the test, then return to this page to proceed to the next test. All results are confidential and the information will only be viewed by your therapist, who will then incorporate the results into your interview with him in coming weeks and the Final Psychological Assessment Report to the Diocesan Deaconate Office. For the first test, the T-JTA, you and your spouse (if Married), will both take the test. After you complete the test, please have your wife start the process over and take the T-JTA. Please do not compare your responses and complete the test independently.
