Welcome to a new relationship with money.
Do you envision a brighter, more stable future for yourself but struggle to to get there? Making change isn’t as simple as knowing what to do. Through financial therapy, you can unpack not just what you think about money, but how it makes you feel, and make sure those feelings aren’t holding you back.
What is financial therapy?
Psychotherapy with a trained clinician, focused on challenges you face related to money.
Money is one of the most common sources of stress, conflict, and worry people face, and it permeates most aspects of our lives. Why don’t we talk about it?
Here are some of the areas clients choose to focus on:
- Developing insight into how your family of origin’s relationship with money influences your financial functioning today.
- Moving from wanting to change money habits to actually changing the way you spend, save, or earn.
- Exploring how cultural context, expectations, social class, and marginalization affect the way you operate your finances.
- Learning how to make money decisions that are in line with your values, even when it is hard.
What can financial therapy look like?
Some people benefit from financial therapy structured the same as typical therapy sessions, meeting with a therapist weekly or bi-weekly for 50 minutes.
Some people prefer to set aside longer periods of time to dive into their money needs, meeting for a couple of hours and then deciding if ongoing sessions will be be helpful.
