The Emotional Side of Money
Money is rarely just about numbers.
Financial therapy explores the emotional and behavioral patterns behind your financial life. It looks at how past experiences, beliefs, and relationships shape the way you earn, spend, save, invest, and make decisions.
Instead of focusing only on income or budgeting, we work with the stress, avoidance, conflict, or pressure that often sit underneath money.

What Financial Therapy Is Not
Investment, legal, or tax advice
Telling you what you “should” do with money
A quick fix for financial stress
For dire financial situations such as bankruptcy, eviction, financial abuse, and foreclosure
A treatment for serious mental health concerns including clients in crisis
Financial therapy is a structured, emotionally focused and goal-oriented work around correcting the negative patterns and narratives shaping your financial life and relationship with money.
Who Financial Therapy Is For
Financial therapy may be a good fit if:
You or your partner experience anxiety, avoidance, or guilt around money.
Financial conflict is impacting your relationships.
You are successful on paper but still feel financially unsettled.
You are starting to notice unhealthy financial patterns and want to change them.
You want to approach money with more intention and less stress.
You have realistic expectations and don’t expect overnight results.
You’re ready and committed to do the work necessary in order to achieve your goals.
What This Work Looks Like
In our sessions, we slow down the automatic reactions around money and explore what is driving them.
We may explore:
Early money experiences and family patterns
Financial roles within your relationship
Fear of losing money, scarcity, hoarding money, spending, or pressure to succeed
Avoidance, overcontrol, shame, or conflict cycles
Your values around money
The emotional impact of major financial transitions
Internal beliefs and narratives about money
Current financial behaviors, habits, and patterns
Navigating challenging and emotionally charged financial events such as pre-nuptial agreements, inheritances, and wealth transitions.
The goal is not perfection. It is discovery, intentional decision making, improving relationships, reducing conflict, achieving your goals, and long term change.
Stop Repeating the Same Money Patterns
The way you relate to money shapes your relationships, your stress levels, and your future. You don’t have to keep repeating the same patterns.
