You've been promoted because you were good at your job. Now you're supposed to lead people, hold hard conversations, and make decisions without a playbook. That gap is normal · and it's addressable.
Solution Focused coaching isn't therapy. It's structured conversations that turn "I think I should know this" into a working leadership practice. With someone who has the clinical credentials and the consulting track record to be useful · not a weekend-certified coach.

Addiction treatment and behavioral health work is hard. The work is even harder when the policies are scattered, the leadership pipeline is thin, and the program design doesn't match the people you're serving.
I've been the CEO. I've been the one writing the proposal, training the supervisors, and rebuilding the manual. The consulting I do now is the work I wish I'd had access to as an operator.
See the org path →The Lead In Method
A 30-minute ($50) call where we talk about where you are, what you're trying to change, and whether I'm the right person to help. You'll get a written summary after. No pressure, no scripts.
Individuals: a coaching engagement scoped to your role, your timeline, your budget. Organizations: a project proposal with deliverables, timeline, and fixed fee. Built together, not handed down.
The Leadership Growth Collective ($129/mo) keeps leaders in community with weekly prompts, monthly group calls, and a private Telegram space. Alumni organizations stay in touch through quarterly check-ins.
"I take a no-nonsense approach. You're not getting a motivational poster. You're getting someone with actual expertise · and the education and credentials to back it." · Madeleine McConnell, MS, LPC, CAADC
