I help people who want to transform their relationship with money. People who feel guilty they have so much, when others lack. Folks who struggle to believe that they really do have enough money, and feel compelled to continue building wealth. People who make good money but are in a spiral of spending and debt, even compulsively spending. People who feel panic when the market drops. People who feel conflicted about how their partner approaches money. People who avoid thinking or talking about money at all costs.

People who work with me feel feel safe and secure, even when unexpected events or market volatility occur. They feel calm thinking about their wealth. They are ready to use their wealth to live out their values. They feel balance between their spending, saving, and giving. They feel grounded during money talks with the important people in their life.

Let's talk. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation so we can get to know each other and see if we are a fit. Together, we can transform your relationship with money.

I work with individuals and their partner(s) on issues of money. During our work together, we'll seek to understand the beliefs and feelings that your parts carry. With compassion, we'll look to understand how these stories formed and where tension exists. As we bring acceptance, many times we see the tension begin to relax, creating space for relief.
