The clinician, the operator, and the dealmaker are the same person.

Edisa has spent more than fifteen years inside behavioral health, in sequence: as a licensed mental health counselor, as a multi-site operator carrying full P&L responsibility across outpatient psychiatry, therapy, substance use, and ABA, and as the integration lead who took acquired practices from close to steady state through a private equity recapitalization and a strategic exit.

She built the standardized integration playbook a national outpatient platform went on to use for every subsequent acquisition, cutting integration timelines from six months to ninety days, and she held provider retention through consecutive changes of ownership — the failure point most behavioral health roll-ups miss. She also holds an executive role at a healthcare technology platform, which keeps her in the billing, workflow, and adoption data behind behavioral health operations, and she serves as a board director and operating advisor to private equity and venture investors.

Aluria was built on that side of the deal. We work with a small number of clients at any given time. The work is too consequential to scale through volume.
