Psychology, business, and design under one roof
I'm a clinical psychologist (PhD), and over the past twenty years I've built a thriving group practice from the ground up. Doing that taught me something clinical training never covers: the business of psychology. I learned, often the hard way, how to turn a practice into a real, sustainable business, the marketing, pricing, systems, hiring, and steady growth that actually keep the doors open and the calendar full. That experience of building a successful practice is the heart of what I now help other practice owners and small business owners do.
Alongside my clinical work, I've always had an entrepreneurial streak. Over the years I've built and supported multiple small businesses, from karate dojos to therapy and coaching practices, helping others turn their ideas into sustainable, thriving ventures. With an MBA and hands-on experience at every stage of business development, I understand what it takes to move from vision to execution.
I also bring a strong creative and technical foundation in web design and digital strategy. I've built websites, developed marketing systems, and guided new entrepreneurs through branding, content creation, and client acquisition. My work bridges the gap between psychology and business, helping people not only design meaningful lives but also build ventures that reflect their purpose and values.
My work brings together psychological insight, big-business strategy, and a grounded belief that any business can grow with the right plan. Whether you're getting unstuck, sharpening your direction, or building the website that finally gets you found, we'll work clearly and practically, and I'll stay in it with you until it's done.
