It's important to note that the CBI is not a diagnostic tool and should not be used on its own assess the presence or absence of Burn Out. High scores on the CBI would certainly alert the clinician need to be explored further within the interview process. Similarly, low scores on the CBI should not be a substitue for a comprehensive clinical interview.

Assessments can be a valuable first step toward getting treatment. All too often people stop short of seeking help out of fear their concerns aren't legitimate or severe enough to warrant professional intervention.
