My name is Susan Storm, and in case you’re wondering, I don’t have invisibility powers! I know – it’s not fair. I am a certified MBTI® practitioner, author, and an avid student of all things psychology related. I especially love to study developmental psychology, clinical psychology, and cognitive psychology. I’ve been studying personality and psychology for over ten years, and it is one of the greatest passions of my life. I also do freelance content marketing, copywriting, and blogging for small businesses.
When I’m not working or studying, my other passion is taking care of my five children and seeing their unique gifts and personalities develop. I love spending time with my family, which is why nearly all of my work is done from home. It’s a busy life, but a fulfilling one!
I hope you enjoy your visit here and are able to learn a few things to take with you! Maybe you can teach me something! I’d love to hear from you in the comments. Thanks for visiting!

Hi Susan! I am wondering which MBTI type u belong to. Before you answer this question, I want to make it clear that I am an INTP and as you have already known, we always want unbiased and different angles and viewpoints. I just encounter your blog today and have been following a few posts about INTP and found them very detailed. From your posts, I can see your accumulated experience and they give me some new insights on my own INTP and future possibilities. However, I can still find a few things to disagree (which I am not going to discuss here) or with only little possibility. Therefore, while I keep visiting your blog, I just want to keep in mind from which angle that these articles are written from.
Disclaimer: Please think of this as a nit-picking, not attacking. Also, I am not the INTP with obsession on linguistic and grammatical errors (and I get this a lot from my fellows).
Thanks for reading my comments and considering my question without unnecessary personal emotions.
I think she mentioned a few times that she’s an INFj. For example, she was talking about it in her “Why it’s okay not to know your personality type” (https://www.psychologyjunkie.com/2017/09/29/okay-not-know-personality-type/).
How do you manage to have so much energy and manage your stress so well? INFJs are easily drained, you have an ESTP husband, a child, homeschool your child, had to go to an event with MANY ESTPs and kids, and more.
Just came across your blog on personality types. I am fairly new to the study of personality types. Do you know of any associations devoted to Myers Briggs that I could join? I get the impression networking about Myers Briggs is only done on online blogs like yours and forums such as Personality Cafe. Thanks for your help.
Hi James, one thing that you can do to connect with others who are interested in MBTI is to get into Quora. (www.quora.com)
Quora is nothing but many thousands (millions?) of people doing nothing but asking questions for other people to answer, writing answers to questions, and reading other people’s questions and answers. In terms of social media features, it is kind of like Twitter, in that people can follow you and you can follow others. You can create a profile (although I don’t think you have to), set up a “feed” based on keywords you want Quora to watch out for. Here are some of the things it feeds me questions on:
“INFP (personality type)”, “Extraverts and Extraversion”, “Psychotherapy”, “ENFP (personality type)”, “INFJ (personality type)”.
If you start doing this, you will quicky find hundreds of people in the US (and a lot from around the world too) who are interested in your questions and/or have answers to your questions. You upvote answers you think are good (e.g. well-written, insightful, understands the questioner’s “real questions”, etc. etc.).
There are probably clubs too, to meet and converse in person, but Quora is by far the easiest way to quickly find conversations on stuff you’re interested in and see who the people are.
I meant to say “by far the easiest way I’ve found, so far”. 🙂
Hey Susan, I stumbled upon your articles via Pinterest. I’m greatly impressed! As an INTP you will know that writing a comment is a rare activity for me and a compliment I don’t make often. Keep writing, thinking and publishing! Many thanks.
Thank you so much Dennis! That means a lot to me and definitely made my day! 🙂
Hi there Susan, I just stumbled upon your website a few moments ago, liked what I saw and subscribed. I’m looking forward to exploring and discovering new insights as I’ve only just discovered my Type (INFJ) and I’m a bit overwhelmed by it, to be honest. However, it does make sense of so much, having spent a lifetime judging and excoriating myself for what I perceived as a ‘defective’ or ‘broken’ me and it’s a relief to find some validation – I’m in my double-thirties now! 🙂 I was also wondering if you could recommend any books/materials/blogs/authors who come at this from a Christian perspective?
Greetings from Scotland.
Carol
Hi Carol! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my site! You are definitely not defective, but I do know many INFJs have struggled with feeling this way throughout life. I’m glad you reached out! Actually I do know two INFJ Christians! Marissa Baker (marissabaker.wordpress.com) is a Christian INFJ blogger and Bo Miller from ispeakpeople.com is also a Christian! Thanks again!
Hi Susan! This site…unreal!! I love the Psychology Junkie emails you send. They consistently make my day & teach me so much about myself. In addition to simply providing interesting content, you’ve helped me develop a better understanding of who I am. I cannot thank you enough. Keep it up!
Thank you so much Laura! This makes my day 🙂 I’m so glad you are enjoying the emails and the articles. Let me know if you ever have any topics you’d like me to write about! 🙂
Hi Susan! I just wanted to thank you for your work here!!! I haven’t been around very long, but, so far, the personality descriptions have been very helpful and insightful in crafting characters for the story I am working on (and also personally).
I had tested as an INFJ before, but after reading your articles, I am wondering if I am actually an INFP (your articles on this topic were helpful). Thanks for stirring my creativity and helping me to understand myself and those around me better!
