About Us
Therapists deserve systems that support them—not slow them down.
Admirra was created by Wendy McSparren, a practicing therapist, and John Mihalik, a seasoned software engineer. Together, they saw a simple truth: the tools available to mental health practices weren’t made for how therapy teams actually work.
Spreadsheets. Missed emails. Disconnected systems. Hiring new staff and onboarding clients felt harder than it should. So, they set out to build something better.

Built for Therapy, Not Tech Experts
Wendy and John met in 2012 and were married the following year. Admirra is a reflection of their shared values: purposeful work, practical solutions, and people-first design.
​
They didn’t just want to build a CRM. They wanted to build the right CRM for therapy practices—a system that’s:
​
-
Prebuilt, so you’re not stuck configuring it from scratch
-
Simple, so your team doesn’t need a tech degree to use it
-
Smart, so you always know what’s working and where to focus
"Therapists change lives. They shouldn’t be buried in admin work to do it."
This is the belief that drives every decision we make at Admirra.
Our Mission
To make running a therapy practice simpler, more sustainable, and more human—so you can focus on what truly matters: helping people heal.
