Why Tactful Disruption®️?
Change isn't just cosmetic—it's cognitive, emotional, and energetic. At Tactful Disruption, we understand that true transformation occurs beneath the surface. Whether you're confronting personal patterns or organizational inertia, our approach helps you unlearn what no longer serves you and build something grounded, strategic, and soulful. We don't just coach—we architect inner revolutions.
What's the 'Boldly Editing Workplace Italics' Mindset?
In writing, italics are used for emphasis. In life, we often take things for granted without realizing it: assumptions, anxieties, and expectations.
At Tactful Disruption®️, we invite you to examine:
What are you unintentionally emphasizing?
Does it align with who you're becoming?
This mindset is about rewriting your narrative with conscious punctuation and intention. It's not just editing—it's authorship.
Why the Mannequins?
The wooden mannequins represent neutrality, adaptability, and evolution. They are blank enough to carry your story while reminding you of your capacity to mold, shift, and create meaning.
They also allow the focus to remain on your transformation—not the therapist's image. You are the subject; we are the guide..
Is Tactful Disruption® All About Science?
No—and that's intentional.
We blend:
Evidence-based psychology
Spiritual insight
Theory-backed tools
This trifecta allows us to treat the whole person, not just the symptom. Science informs. Spirit animates. Strategy sustains.
What is 'Heal the Ages®️'?
Heal the Ages is our signature transformation program, inspired by Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development. It guides clients through the developmental tasks that are often interrupted by trauma, transitions, or systemic barriers.
Think of it as a structured rewrite of your operating system—chapter by chapter, age by age.
Can I Book a Session?
Absolutely. If you're ready to explore the patterns, pains, or power within you, book a session. We often suggest starting with the Selfies Oracle Deck—a guided, intuitive tool to help surface what you may not yet be able to articulate.
Do You Work with Leaders or Entrepreneurs?
Yes. We support executives, founders, and bold thinkers in two ways:
Mental health coaching to dissolve emotional roadblocks

Your mental state is your business strategy. We make sure it's optimized.
*Clinical Services are limited to CO, ID, IL, and NM. We take most insurances and EAP.

Exclusive content for Heal the Ages®️

Are You Psychic?
Not quite—but intuition plays a significant role in how we work.
Dr. McGrew identifies as a prophetess, someone deeply informed by faith and the sacred power of language. In this space, intention and insight meet impact. Words are spells—and we wield them wisely.
Are You an Artist?
Yes. Creativity fuels our frameworks. From storytelling to visual design, from poetry to oracles, art is a vital part of how we facilitate growth. The Selfies Oracle Deck is one such creation—bridging art, insight, and healing in a format that anyone can use.
What Does 'Nike of Mental Health' Mean?
It's not just a tagline—it's a mission.
Inspired by the Greek goddess of victory, Nike symbolizes triumph, discipline, and transformation. Tactful Disruption®️ aims to be the gold standard for culturally informed, spiritually integrated, and psychologically grounded healing and consulting.
We don't do hype. We do results—with style and soul.
