FOR ALLIED HEALTH PRACTICE OWNERS

I built, scaled and sold a multi-site practice. Now I partner with owners doing the same.

Advisory with aligned incentives: I work with a small number of practice owners, and where it fits, I invest alongside them.

Who this is for

This is for

Owner-operators past the startup phase. You have clinicians, revenue and demand, and you've hit a ceiling. Growth has stalled, the systems are straining, or the practice still can't run a fortnight without you. You want someone who has actually built one, working alongside you rather than advising from a distance.

This is not for

Anyone after a course, a coach or a silver bullet. If you want frameworks delivered from a stage, there are cheaper options. This is hands-on work, custom to your practice, with a small number of owners at a time, and I say no more often than yes.

THE OFFER

Start with a Practice Review

Every engagement starts with a Practice Review: a structured look at the whole business. Clinician remuneration and workload, capacity, referral flow and marketing spend, fees and funding mix, admin load, and where the practice actually makes and loses money.

You walk away with a written diagnostic: what's working, what's constraining growth, and a prioritised plan for the next twelve months. It's yours whether or not we work together beyond it. Timeframe and fee are fixed and covered on the call. The point of all of it is a practice that works better for everyone in it: an owner who isn't burning out, clinicians who stay, and clients who get consistent care.

Where there's a fit on both sides, the review can extend into an ongoing partnership: regular advisory plus a minority stake or revenue participation. I only do well when you do, which keeps the advice honest.

Background

I founded a psychology practice in Adelaide in 2019 and ran it as owner and clinical psychologist. It grew it to 20 clinicians and the point of needing a third location before I sold it at the end of 2024. I built the remuneration model, the recruitment pipeline and the systems myself, mostly by getting them wrong first and fixing them. I stayed on through the transition to the new owners. Now I work with a small number of practice owners building what I built.

How an engagement runs

1

Start with a discovery call

Everything begins with a short, no-obligation conversation. We talk through your practice and your numbers in rough terms, and work out whether this is worth pursuing. No pitch.

2

The Practice Review

A focused diagnostic of your operations, growth levers and constraints, delivered as a clear written plan for the next twelve months. Fixed fee and timeframe, agreed on the call.

3

Decide the model

Take the plan and run it yourself, or if it fits both sides, we agree an ongoing advisory arrangement with aligned equity or revenue participation. Both are fine outcomes.

If that sounds like your practice, let’s talk.
