Where Clinical Depth
Meets Strategic Execution

I built YARMCO because I kept seeing the same gap — organizations doing meaningful work in behavioral health, nonprofits, and healthcare that were leaving real growth on the table. My MSW in Management and Policy gives me macro-level fluency in how these systems actually operate. My MBA and Lean Six Sigma background give me the tools to build what replaces the gap.

About

Built at the Intersection of People and Performance

YARMCO is an independent consulting practice built on a combination that is genuinely rare — an MSW focused on Management and Policy, paired with MBA-level business strategy and over a decade of hands-on execution across healthcare, nonprofits, higher education, and government.

On the MSW background: With an MSW focused on Management and Policy, I bring a macro-level understanding of healthcare, human services, and community-based systems. My background helps me bridge operational strategy with real-world patient and provider needs — especially when building referral pathways, improving workflows, and strengthening partnerships across organizations.

This foundation creates credibility that resonates across clinical staff, administrative leadership, and executive stakeholders simultaneously — genuine sector fluency built from the inside, not a framework applied from the outside.

What Clients Say About Working with YARMCO

"
What stood out immediately was that we were always working directly with the principal. No handoffs, no junior staff trying to figure out our business. The strategy was specific to us and it actually got executed.
J
Clinical Director
Behavioral Health Group Practice, New York City
"
The MSW background made a real difference. We had tried consultants who did not understand how clinicians think or how referral relationships work. YARMCO came in speaking our language from day one.

The AI workflow automation alone saved us dozens of hours a month. What really moved the needle was the referral partnership strategy. We saw a real, sustained increase in patient intake over the first quarter.

Right Fit

YARMCO Works Best
When the Stakes Are Real

Not every organization is the right fit. Being direct about that upfront saves time and leads to better outcomes when we do work together.

Great Fit

You are likely a great fit if...

  • You lead a behavioral health, nonprofit, or mission-driven organization and need senior strategic support without a full-time executive hire
  • You want someone who operates credibly at the intersection of clinical systems and business execution
  • You are ready to implement — not just strategize — and want a partner who executes alongside you
  • You are scaling a referral-driven business and need proven business development systems
  • You run a small or medium business that has outgrown its current systems and needs senior strategy without a full-time hire
  • You value direct communication and measurable outcomes over polished presentations
Not the Right Match

This may not be the right fit if...

  • You are looking for a large firm with rotating staff and a team of analysts
  • You want a strategy deck delivered with no accountability for what happens after
  • You are seeking a transactional one-off project with no interest in ongoing partnership
  • Your industry is outside behavioral health, nonprofits, higher education, or government
Most organizations have the right intentions but the wrong execution infrastructure. That is the gap YARMCO closes.

Ask a Question ↗
The primary focus is behavioral health and psychiatric practices, nonprofit social service organizations, higher education programs, government-adjacent agencies, and small to medium businesses. The common thread is that every client operates at the intersection of mission-driven purpose and the need for business performance.
Project-based engagements typically run six to sixteen weeks depending on scope. Retainer engagements start with a three-month minimum. A typical retainer includes weekly or biweekly strategy calls, business development pipeline management, implementation work, and monthly reporting.
Every engagement is custom-scoped. Publishing a rate card would either undervalue complex engagements or make simple ones appear inaccessible. YARMCO is priced as a boutique senior consulting practice. A discovery call produces a specific proposal within 48 hours.
Three primary differences. First, every engagement is led by the principal — not associates with the principal visible only in kickoff calls. Second, YARMCO does not produce strategy documents and walk away. Third, the MSW in Management and Policy provides genuine sector-specific credibility that generic business consulting firms cannot replicate.
Both, but the emphasis is on implementation. YARMCO builds the CRM systems, writes the outreach scripts, deploys the workflows, manages referral relationships, and tracks the metrics. The end state is a functioning system that continues working after the engagement concludes.
Following a discovery call and proposal agreement, most engagements start within one to two weeks. YARMCO maintains a limited client roster intentionally — this enables the senior attention and responsiveness that clients value.
Yes. While based in New York, YARMCO serves clients nationally. The E Care MSO engagement spanned Houston, New York, and Indiana simultaneously. Most work is conducted remotely with periodic in-person sessions for high-stakes moments when needed.
The MSW focus in Management and Policy provides a macro-level understanding of how healthcare, human services, and community-based systems actually operate — from funding structures and regulatory environments to provider dynamics and patient experience. This allows business development and operational strategy to be built with real-world insight into what clinical staff will adopt and what referral partners actually respond to.
