A different kind of practice

I work privately with a small number of accomplished people who seek meaning and re-alignment: doctors, founders, lawyers, executives.
‍
Through one-to-one work, writing, podcasting and music, and I help people and projects align with their true selves.

This is a space for people to deeply connect with what they want and identify the unconcious barriers blocking them.

Welcome, I’m Brendan

Years as psychiatrist
2021
Founded Pandion Health

At thirty-four I was offered a path to a two-million-dollar psychiatry career in California. I turned it down. Not on principle. I could see the next thirty years of my life from where I was standing, and I didn't want them. I now work with a small number of people who choose deep alignment.

I'd made it. That turned out to be the problem. Arriving strips away the last excuse you have for not asking what you actually want.
