Summary

In this episode, I sit down with Wendy McSparren, licensed clinical social worker, group practice owner, and co-founder of Admirra, a CRM built specifically for mental health practices. Wendy’s story is one of my favorite kinds, she didn’t wake up one day and decide to build software. She was living inside the chaos of running an insurance-based group practice during the pandemic and simply needed a better way to survive it. When the tools on the market didn’t fit the reality of how therapy practices actually operate, she and her husband (a software engineer) built what they couldn’t find.
