Emerging leaders
Physicians and APPs in their first few years of leading others — often clinically excellent, leadership-undertrained, and learning the work as they go.
Coaching for clinician leaders
Reclaiming joy in the practice of leading.
Executive coaching for emerging clinician leaders who want to lead with skill — and established leaders who want to love the work again.
The approach
Leadership is a practice. So is joy.
The clinicians I coach are exceptional at what they do — and many are exhausted by what leading has asked of them. My work is helping you build the daily practice of leadership with clarity, conviction, and humanity. The goal isn't merely to be more effective. It's to find the work meaningful again.
Who I work with
At the start of leadership, and well into it.
Established leaders
Physicians and APPs well into their leadership — division chiefs, medical directors, department leadership, CMOs — who are tired, stuck, or finding their way back to what brought them to leadership to begin with.
