Christopher Baker, Founder and Principal Clinical Advisor

Why I Founded Baker Private Advisory

My experience spans direct clinical practice, executive leadership within behavioral health organizations, and senior leadership in private-client advisory and navigation.

I established Baker Private Advisory to offer a more direct advisory relationship, one in which experienced judgment, personal accountability, and continuity remain central from the first assessment through the decisions that follow.

What I Provide

Independent Assessment

A clear read of the situation and of the recommendations already on the table, with no referral or placement incentive behind it.

Strategic Guidance

A recommended course based on my assessment, which may involve outpatient support, additional clinical care, or more intensive treatment, and the order in which decisions need to be made.

Professional Coordination

Communication with providers, attorneys, trustees, and other advisors, and, when intensive treatment is indicated, identifying and coordinating suitable resources.

Direct Involvement

Family meetings, transitions, and in-person support wherever the client is, led by me from start to finish.

Start with an introductory conversation.

The first call is brief, complimentary, and handled with discretion. It determines whether a focused consultation or an ongoing engagement fits the situation. How engagements work →
