CA typology is a framework for understanding broad patterns of personality, attachment, learning, and survival strategies. It is primarily a clinical tool, meant to support prediction, rapport, and moment-to-moment awareness rather than categorization.

Orientation styles reflect learned patterns of attention, regulation, and response. These patterns often develop early and are reinforced over time. Within CA, they are understood as adaptive responses, not fixed traits or diagnoses.

If you’re curious about how your attention tends to orient across thoughts, sensations, and external cues, the Constructed Awareness Scale (CAS) offers a place to begin noticing.

In Constructed Awareness® (CA), no orientation style is inherently healthy or unhealthy. What matters is whether the building blocks available in a given moment are regulating or overwhelming. Awareness helps create choice where habit once dominated.

CA typology does not describe who a person is. It describes how experience is organized in a given moment. Orientation patterns shift across situations and over time. No one expresses only one arrangement, and no style is better or worse.

If you’re curious about how your attention tends to orient across thoughts, sensations, and external cues, the Constructed Awareness Scale (CAS) offers a place to begin noticing.

Constructed Awareness® (CA) understands conscious experience as being built from three elements: thoughts, sensations, and external cues. These building blocks organize how we orient, regulate, and respond moment to moment. CA typology explores how different arrangements shape experience without assigning fixed types or labels.

The Constructed Awareness Scale (CAS) is not meant to assign a type, but to support reflection on orientation patterns in specific contexts. For some, it can offer language for noticing what is regulating and what is less accessible.

In Constructed Awareness®, resourcing is rooted in awareness rather than control. By noticing how experience is constructed in the moment, regulation becomes possible through clarity, tolerance, and choice.

Constructed Awareness® (CA) begins with a simple, powerful noticing.
Where your awareness naturally goes is not random. It reflects how you orient to life, to relationship, and to change.

Some people first notice thoughts.
Some notice sensation.
Some notice what is happening around them in the environment.

None of these are better or worse. They are simply different doorways into presence.

CA helps you recognize your primary orientation, understand how it developed, and learn how to move with it rather than against it. From that understanding, new choices emerge. Not through effort or fixing, but through awareness becoming more spacious, flexible, and kind.

We’re pleased to share that a new peer-reviewed article by Tyler Orr has been published in Counseling and Values.

The paper presents Constructed Awareness® (CA) as an emerging, trauma-informed counseling model, offering a comparative analysis of mindfulness-based approaches and clarifying how awareness itself functions as a mechanism for therapeutic change in CA. The article outlines the model’s theoretical foundations, clinical applications, and implications for trauma-informed practice.

Due to publication restrictions, the full article cannot be shared publicly.
Clinicians, researchers, and students may request access by emailing info@constructedawareness.com

We’re grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the ongoing scholarly conversation around mindfulness, trauma, and clinical care.
