What I bring
Programme and service design
The delivery model, the participant journey, and the structures that keep people safe and held.
Operations and delivery
The digital infrastructure a service runs on, built from scratch and directed end to end.
Impact strategy and measurement
Clinically validated measurement, built into a real evaluation framework.
Sustainability and reach
Programmes designed to last, so good work survives beyond its first round of funding.
Where I work best
I work at two points: when something doesn't exist yet, or when something exists but isn't working optimally. I design the model, build the infrastructure, and stay to see it work, iterating against real data as it runs.
Much of my work begins with someone in one of these situations:
The funder
You've secured capital for a mental health initiative but lack a specialist to execute the build.
The clinician
You're a clinician with a model that works, but no way to make it run without you.
The impact gap
You've promised to deliver impact but can't prove what you've achieved.
The drop-off
You have a programme live and you're losing people, or aren't getting the results you'd like, and can't work out why.
The funding cliff
You've built something that works, but it risks losing the funding that keeps it alive.

The Renu Collective
My own co-founded venture: a remote year long eating disorder recovery programme I built and ran end to end, from the delivery model to the measurement.
Across a small pilot cohort, every completer moved below clinical threshold on validated self-report measures, and participants signed off work at enrolment were back in full-time roles within six months.
As Chief Operating Officer, I'm building the operating system for a humanitarian mental health organisation delivering remotely across the UK, US and Australia.
I'm responsible for the impact framework and the digital infrastructure that delivers it: intake and risk triage, multi-jurisdictional governance, practitioner credentialing, scheduling and delivery, and longitudinal outcome measurement.

Attachment Rewired
My own venture: an evidence-based programme guiding people from anxious, avoidant or disorganised patterns towards earned secure attachment.
Its trauma-informed approach works with the body as much as the mind, pairing intensive one-to-one somatic work (Emotional Freedom Techniques) with mixed group therapy that becomes a live lab for noticing and adapting real relational patterns.

Foundations of Therapeutic Music
With Dr Mendel Kaelen, I am the operational partner behind his educational programmes: building the systems, infrastructure and learning experience that have turned his research and teaching into a growing ecosystem of training, from foundational courses to continuing practice.
His flagship programme, Foundations of Therapeutic Music, holds an average rating of 4.9 / 5.
Work with me
If you have a concept and no route to delivery, I'd love to hear from you.
Availability
I take on two engagements at a time, two or three days a week each. I have availability opening up from November 2026.
