About Me

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, clinical leader, and consultant specializing in helping organizations build and strengthen behavioral health services that are both clinically sound and operationally sustainable. I partner with behavioral health organizations to build ethical, sustainable, and clinically strong programs, especially in the areas of eating disorders and complex care. I am also passionate about remaining a clinician and supervisor. For more information about my counseling services and approach, please view Counseling Services.

​

My work is rooted in the belief that high-quality care doesn’t happen by accident. It requires thoughtful systems, strong leadership, and a clear commitment to ethical, client-centered practice. ​Over the course of my career, I’ve held leadership roles supporting multi-state behavioral health programs, where I’ve been responsible for program development, clinical oversight, and team leadership across complex and evolving care environments. I’ve worked at the intersection of clinical excellence and operational execution, helping organizations navigate growth, maintain quality, and support their teams effectively.

My Approach to Consulting

I partner with organizations as a thoughtful collaborator and strategic advisor. My goal is not just to offer recommendations, but to help teams think clearly, make informed decisions, and move forward with confidence.

My consulting work is grounded in:

• Clinical integrity – ensuring care models align with best practices

• Operational awareness – understanding the realities of running and scaling programs

• Collaboration – working alongside teams rather than dictating solutions

• Sustainability – building systems that support both clients and clinicians over time

I’m particularly skilled at helping organizations navigate complex or ambiguous challenges, where there isn’t a single clear answer and thoughtful decision-making is required. I also pride myself on supportin strong team culture and employee retention.
