Co-Founder

Designing the conditions for people to thrive.

Orlando draws on his experience in hospital and clinical systems, psychotherapy, and holistic wellness to design experiences that support personal transformation and create the conditions for people to thrive.

From business to healthcare to human transformation

Understanding the systems around us

I began my career in business, working across sales, marketing, and organizational growth. I learned what it takes to turn an idea into something real: a clear vision, thoughtful strategy, and people working toward a shared purpose.


My work in hospital and clinical systems deepened that understanding. I saw how the way care is organized—the processes, environments, and relationships around it—shapes the experience of the people it serves. Wellness depends on more than an individual practice; it also depends on the systems we build around people.

Understanding the person within them

My path into psychotherapy brought me closer to the inner lives of people navigating pressure, relationships, ambition, and change. It taught me to look beyond performance and consider what helps someone feel connected, supported, and able to grow.


Alongside my clinical work, my exploration of holistic wellness expanded how I think about personal transformation: as something that involves how we think, feel, relate, and experience our lives.

Bringing that perspective to WellHaus

I helped build WellHaus with a belief that wellness can inform every part of an experience, from its purpose and environment to the people involved and the way they come together.


My contribution is to bring an understanding of people and systems into that design process. Whether we are shaping a large scale event, retreat, a workshop, or a program for an organization, I ask: What conditions will help people connect, discover something about themselves, and carry that experience into their lives?

Kaiser Permanente

Integrated Behavioral Health & Psychiatry

Helped pilot and implement an integrated behavioral health program within primary care, collaborating with physicians and clinical leaders across multiple medical sites. Supported and led a team of six behavioral health clinicians and contributed to staff training and group curriculum design. This experience shaped my understanding of how systems and relationships create the conditions for wellbeing.

Scripps Health

Marketing & Business Development

Spent five years working across executive health, healthcare marketing, physician relationships, and business development. Working with senior executives from Fortune 500 and 1000 companies brought together my understanding of organizational priorities, preventive health, and the human experience of care.

Transforma Therapy

Founding Clinician

Founded an integrative practice bringing together psychotherapy, coaching, education, and collaboration with other health professionals. This work deepened my understanding of personal transformation and how meaningful change is supported through relationships, practical tools, and everyday life.

COMMUNITY, EDUCATION & FACILITATION

My background also includes culturally responsive care at La Clínica de La Raza, practitioner education with the Integrative Psychiatry Institute, peer consultation and experiential training with Journey Clinical, and retreat facilitation with The Mission Within.

THE PERSPECTIVE I BRING

At WellHaus, I bring this experience into the design of nonclinical wellness programs and experiences—considering both the individual and the environments, relationships, and systems that help people connect and thrive.

“I believe success can be both ambitious and deeply human.”
