Do you know what to ask in order to know if you can have a good fit?

My ideal client is one who's experience in Life has left them with a sense of disconnection. This sense is deep seated, as it has begun to shape their existence in the world; a world that has rapidly moved away from one where vulnerability is practiced to one where isolation feels emotionally safer. This person is challenged to begin healing because the conditions in their life feel unescapable, ongoing; chronic. They struggle feeling purposeful and in creating a HEALTHY sense of self. They've spent more time coping, and providing LIFE to this symptomatic person they've Become and almost no LFE to to ONE they were BORN to be.
