About Cathy Christensen

Do you have an ambitious vision to scale or improve your business, but feel you\'re missing crucial elements to make it happen?I work with medical aesthetic practice owners who are facing a critical growth plateau or inefficient admin processes. They know they need to evolve, but they\'re too close to the day-to-day to see the path forward clearly to maximize their impact.My role is to step in as an objective, experienced outsider. I spend time figuring out what\'s really going on from the leader/owner perspective and the team perspective. Then, I develop a clear, prioritized growth roadmap and/or process that shows them exactly how to pivot, and I often help them train their leadership team to make sure the new strategy sticks.The ultimate result is that my clients earn additional revenue, time, and a better culture because their process is untangled or their growth is obtainable. I provide the expertise, framework, and temporary horsepower they need without the permanent overhead.In short, I help medical aesthetic practices successfully move forward faster and with less risk.Credentials and ExperienceI have been an active member of the growth and evolution of the medical aesthetics industry for the past 26 years, most recently as the President and Chief Strategy Officer/Chief Operations Officer of the American Med Spa Association.During my career, I have analyzed, guided, and developed business and educational strategy for the medical aesthetics space. I have built many meaningful connections and partnerships, and guided the growth of one of the most influential and pioneering entities in medical aesthetics. Now, it’s time that I make my knowledge and thought-leadership work for you.At Christensen Consulting, I help scaling medical spa owners assess available opportunities for the present and future of their businesses to ensure their journey continues to fulfill them both financially and personally. Through my insight, knowledge, connections, and financial know-how, I help my clients fully realize the success they desire in a healthy, mindful way.I would love to hear from you!
