Use The Needs Wheel to identify what you need, based on your current feelings.

Even when we know what we feel, we don’t always know what we need to feel better. Not being able to identify what we need can be frustrating, for ourselves as well as the friends, family, and partners who care about us. When you aren’t able to identify your needs on your own, using The Needs Wheel is a great place to start.

How it Works

Step 01

Find your base emotion

Each petal on The Needs Wheel represents a base emotion. Find the base that you feel best represents your current emotional state.

Step 02

Identify your need

Read through the options in the rows above to locate your unmet need. These options include what you might feel is missing or what you’re yearning for. Read through the options, and pick one that resonates with you.

Step 03

Discover a solution

Read through the options in the third row for how to meet the need you’ve chosen. You can use our ideas as a starting point to brainstorm your own.

After identifying your specific emotion, be sure to reflect on it. A couple options for processing this could include journaling about the feeling, talking with a friend, or taking notes to bring to your next therapy session.
