I believe that all clients deserve space to be seen and supported to reach their goals, and I work hard to meet clients where they are at. That being said, my ideal client is the person who struggles with anxiety, depression, and/or ADHD (and maybe working on/ maintaining sobriety) who just needs some extra support and guidance to manage the symptoms of those illnesses, as well as all of the emotions of recovery and re-entry (structure, support, etc.). These clients are the ones who often benefit most from stabilization, goal-oriented treatment, and support with emotional regulation and/or building healthy routines.

They want clarity, emotional steadiness, and meaningful change, but not quick fixes.
