Advisory Services
Â
Strategic partnership for leaders navigating complexity in behavioral health, policy, and higher education.
How It Works
This is not project-based consulting. You’re not buying deliverables—you’re buying access to thinking, judgment, and experience.
We work together on an ongoing basis. You bring the hard questions—program design, leadership transitions, policy navigation, stakeholder engagement, strategic decisions. I bring three decades of experience and a perspective you won’t get from inside your organization.
What advisory looks like: - Regular calls (frequency based on your needs) - Asynchronous access between calls (email, voice memo) - A sounding board for decisions before you make them - An outside perspective when you’re too close to see clearly - Connections to my network when introductions would help.

Hourly Engagements
For discrete questions or one-time consultations, I offer limited hourly availability.
$500/hour (2-hour minimum)
This works for: - Second opinions on specific decisions - One-time accreditation or program questions - Brief strategic input without ongoing commitment
Hourly engagements are limited. If you need ongoing support, an advisory tier is more effective and economical.
