A Story of Support, Trust, and Progress: Zena and Leah’s Journey at Mysti’s WA

At Mysti’s Adult and Family Services WA, we believe that lasting change happens through relationships. Behind every successful outcome is a dedicated professional, a client willing to do the work, and a system of support built on trust, accountability, and care.

This is the story of Leah and her case manager, Zena.

Meeting Clients Where They Are

When Leah first connected with Mysti’s WA, she was navigating instability and uncertainty. Like many individuals seeking support, her needs extended beyond a single service — she required guidance, advocacy, and consistent follow-through.

Zena, a case manager at Mysti’s WA, worked closely with Leah to understand her goals, challenges, and immediate needs. Through individualized case management services, Zena helped Leah access resources, coordinate care, and develop a plan focused on stability and long-term progress.

Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, Zena met Leah where she was — adjusting support as circumstances changed and ensuring Leah remained at the center of every decision.

The Power of Consistent Case Management

Progress does not happen overnight. Through regular check-ins, care coordination, and advocacy, Zena supported Leah in navigating complex systems while maintaining accountability and momentum.

This relationship-driven approach allowed Leah to:

• Access critical support services

• Build stability step by step

• Strengthen her confidence and independence

Leah’s progress reflects what is possible when case management is both structured and compassionate — focused not only on outcomes, but on the person behind them.

Recognizing the Role of Partnership

Client success is never the result of one person alone. Leah’s journey was supported by a broader network of community partners, service providers, and frontline staff who collaborated to ensure continuity of care.

At Mysti’s WA, we recognize that strong partnerships are essential to delivering effective, whole-person services. Collaboration allows us to connect clients to the right resources at the right time — and to sustain progress over the long term.

Looking Ahead

Leah’s story is a reminder of why this work matters. It represents resilience, dedication, and the impact of showing up consistently — from both clients and staff.

As we enter the New Year, we celebrate Leah’s progress and recognize Zena for her commitment to providing high-quality, person-centered case management.

We remain committed to supporting individuals and families across Washington through services rooted in trust, accountability, and care.

Mysti’s Adult and Family Services WA continues to deliver comprehensive case management and community-based support designed to help people move forward — one relationship at a time.
