Clinical & Creative Operations for Therapists, Agencies & Community Centers

Clinical work means I can see clients, facilitate groups, provide assessments, and support your clinical offerings. I'm an ACSW working toward licensure.

Creative operations means I handle the behind-the-scenes work that keeps a practice or organization running, and thriving. That includes building systems, creating programs and workshops, developing content and marketing, doing community outreach, and providing strategic support. I'm not just executing tasks. I'm thinking with you and building alongside you.

This is for therapists, group practices, agencies, and community centers who are building something rooted in care, not just profit. You're overwhelmed doing everything alone. You need someone who can handle multiple areas (clinical, operations, creative, strategic), and you value collaboration over just delegating tasks.

No. I work with anyone building community-centered mental health or wellness services. That could be a solo therapist, a group practice, an agency, a community center, or an organization creating programs for healing and support. As I work towards licensure, I am open to anything that allows me to accrue hours towards becoming a licensed clinician.

It depends on the scope of work, whether I'm doing clinical work, operations, or both, and what your budget allows. I need fair compensation for what I'm bringing to the table, and I'm open to hybrid structures (like hourly clinical work plus a retainer for consulting/operations, or hourly). We'll discuss this during the consultation to make sure it works for both of us.

Yes, and if you can't provide clinical supervision, I'm open to having an external supervisor as long as I can still see clients through your practice or organization. We'll talk through what that looks like during our consultation.

If you're an LCSW, you'd provide clinical supervision (typically 1-2 hours per week, depending on state requirements). If you’re not an LCSW, I can still receive a limited amount of hours from you. If you're not able to supervise, I can arrange external supervision and we'll figure out how that works logistically and financially. I have a mentor that I work with who is always available to supervise me if an agency is willing to sign an agreement allowing me to receive outside supervision.

That depends on what you need. This could be part-time, full-time, or project-based. We'll figure out what makes sense based on your goals and my availability.

That's okay. Alignment matters more than anything. If we go through the consultation and realize we're not the right fit, there's no hard feelings. I'd rather both of us find the right collaboration than force something that doesn't feel good. I am looking for stability, something I can ground it and give my best foot forward in. Anything that is misaligned can cause future disruptions, I’d rather us both know upfront so we can invest properly.

You'll know from the consultation, and so will I. We'll talk about your mission, your values, your energy, and what you're building. I'll share mine. If it feels right, we'll both feel it. If it doesn't, we'll both know that too.

I'm not just executing tasks like a VA, and I'm not just telling you what to do like a consultant. I'm doing both, and I'm doing clinical work too. I'm in it with you, building alongside you, bringing strategy and execution. Plus, I bring a creative and relational lens to everything I do. This isn't explicitly transactional, it's intentional and collaborative.

I'm based in California and work virtually, but I'm open to in-person collaboration depending on location and what the role requires.

Yes. Even if you're not ready to bring someone on right now, you can still fill out the form or send me a message. Sometimes just having a conversation helps clarify what you actually need. I am good at that too!

I provide comprehensive support. That means I'm willing to do a lot, clinical work, operations, creative strategy, program development, and yes, even some of the day-to-day tasks that keep things running.

What I do:

• See clients and provide clinical support

• Build systems and workflows (intake, scheduling, documentation)

• Manage professional calendars and scheduling

• Create content (captions, posts, newsletters, website copy)

• Design workshops, programs, and community offerings

• Reach out to potential clients and community partners (this is part of building and scaling your business)

• Provide strategic direction and planning

• Handle operational tasks that support the bigger picture

What I won't do:

• Work that treats me like I'm "just an assistant" and doesn't value my expertise

• Tasks that are purely busy work with no strategic purpose

• Anything that strips my agency or reduces me to someone who just takes orders

I have a master's degree. I'm an ACSW. I'm a strategist and a builder. I'm willing to do the work that needs to be done, including operational and administrative work, but I need to be respected for what I'm bringing to the table. If you see this role as "hiring an assistant," we're not aligned. If you see this as bringing on a professional collaborator who's willing to support you comprehensively, then we should talk.

No. And I'm going to be honest about that upfront.

I can help you build the systems, create the content, design the programs, and provide the strategic support you need. But your business grows because of your presence, your energy, and your commitment too.

I can't make people want to work with you. I can't replace you showing up authentically. I can't do the relationship-building that only you can do.

What I can do is take the things off your plate that are draining you, help you think strategically, and create the infrastructure that lets you actually focus on the parts of your business that require your unique presence.

We're building together. That means we both have to show up.

I'm willing to do most of what supports the work we're building together, as long as it's part of a comprehensive role where I'm valued as a professional.

That includes:

• Managing your professional calendar and scheduling

• Reaching out to potential clients or community partners

• Creating content and marketing materials

• Building intake systems and operational workflows

• Designing and facilitating workshops or groups

• Handling day-to-day operations that keep the practice running

What I'm not willing to do:

• Be treated like I'm "just an assistant" when I have a master's degree and years of professional experience

• Work in an environment where my agency is stripped and I'm just taking orders

• Tasks that are purely busy work with no connection to building something meaningful

I'm here to provide comprehensive support. That means I'll do the "small" things and the "big" things, but all of it needs to be in service of building something we both believe in, and all of it needs to be done in an environment where I'm respected.

Expect someone who's all in, and that may look different to both of us.

I'm not just here to do the "fun" parts. I'm here to help you build, and that includes the operational work, the outreach, the systems, the day-to-day stuff that keeps things running.

But I'm not here to be your assistant. I'm here to be your collaborator. That means I bring strategic thinking, creativity, initiative, and professionalism, even when I'm doing scheduling or reaching out to clients.

You can expect me to:

• Think critically and bring ideas

• Execute without needing to be micromanaged

• Handle a wide range of tasks (clinical, creative, operational)

• Care about what we're building

What I need from you:

• Respect for my expertise and agency

• Trust that I can think and problem-solve

• Collaboration, not just delegation

• Fair compensation for the comprehensive support I'm providing

Together, we build something sustainable.
