What is therapy like with you?

Respect is very important to me. I feel it’s important to actively listen and meet my clients where they are in their situation.

How does your financial budgeting service work?

My financial budgeting service can be either therapeutic or non-therapeutic.

It’s therapeutic if money is a constant stressor in a client’s life. Learning how to budget can be incorporated into the treatment plan to support the client in making better financial choices.

The financial budgeting service is non-therapeutic if a client wants assistance in setting a budgeting system. No therapy occurs.

Sometimes, clients have various goals that they want to accomplish and need support in looking at their current situation to reach future goals. I will assess their situation and collectively work with clients to make realistic plans.
