What we fix
Three problems. One operating bench.
Most consultants pick one lane. We pick the three that decide whether your facility makes it through the next 24 months — and we work them as one connected system.
01 · Growth
Admissions & BD that actually convert
Rebuild the intake funnel from Web/Referrals/Organic → Outreach → Transition → Alumni. CRM that earns its keep. Reps spending time in market, not in spreadsheets.
02 · People
Keep the clinicians you have
Counselor turnover is a margin problem. Employer brand, onboarding, supervision, and the 5 Do's of Behavioral Health Hiring — applied before the next 90-day departure.
03 · Operations
Run the back office like an asset
Workflow, claims, labs, IT, vendor consolidation. Less time navigating systems. More time on patient care. Numbers your board can underwrite.
Operating track record
Not our first regulated market.
18+ years scaling regulated-market platforms — behavioral health, hospital systems, capital markets. A Wall Street brain applied to the operational problems that actually move enterprise value inside a SUD program.
