My ideal client still chooses to show up regardless of their ambivalence towards their treatment goals. Even if this person is not entirely set on treatment, recovery, whatever it might be, your next steps can decide whether or not that individual returns. If I'm thinking more specifically about my own experience, I think a lot about the individuals I supported who were actively using substances. They could identify the harmful impacts and want recovery but couldn't get through their initial ambivalence. These types of moments and individuals are so important to me.

Maybe you find yourself at a crossroads where you don't know what direction to go. Perhaps you lost hope and find yourself questioning your own self-worth and purpose in life. You want to be happy, but the storms in your life don't let you take a breath, and you get tired.
