When I’m at a conference, a party, or on an airplane and I meet someone new, the getting-to-know-you conversation inevitably turns to what I do for a living. My reply, “I’m a Financial Therapist,” usually makes folks pause for a moment, cock their head to the side, and say, “Whoa, I need that - and so does my sister, or brother, my daughter, or mother, or cousin - they need that!” The name alone resonates deeply, but what does it mean? As a Financial Therapist, I support folks in their personal relationship to money. That’s the short and sweet way to put it. Here, in this space, I often share stories about my life and my work, along with real-life tools that you can implement on your own to grow your money relationship - and I’m so honored to share this journey with you. But that’s just a snapshot of what I do. Today, I want to shine a brighter light on what a Financial Therapist is (and isn’t!) and share a bit about how I came to be a Financial Therapist. If you’re wondering about… 🦋Why you might want to explore Financial Therapy 🦋How I became a Financial Therapist 🦋My personal approach to Financial Therapy (and what makes the Art of Money different from traditional Financial Therapy) 🦋How to find the right Financial Therapist 🦋Where to start if you’re thinking of becoming a Financial Therapist It can feel like a lot, but I’ve got you covered.

Oh it was one of those memorable weeks. I loved starting my private Financial Therapy sessions. Our son made a top soccer team in Boulder. He’s so psyched. We’ll be leaving amazing parents and kids in Denver, and that’s sad, but it’s a great opportunity for him. My husband has a new business idea that I love and my mom loves. She’s already sending him emails about it. I’ve started jog/walking again. And I gave blood for the first time and just got a text that it was sent to the hospital for someone who needed a transfusion. Feel free to tell me something good in your world this week. And Happy Friday everyone! May you have some rest, joy and connection this weekend! #selfie #sunset #runwalk #runwalkrun #friday #fridayvibes

Here we go. I opened my private financial therapy sessions last week for the first time in 5 years. I opened 10 slots for the summer and they filled up in two hours. So, I got so excited to work with everyone and quickly realized there was a bigger interest than I anticipated so I opened up more slots and 22 filled up within 24 hours. That was incredible for me. And today they begin on Zoom + video. I’m so excited to be getting back to my private session roots for the summer. If all goes well, I’ll open up another round in the Fall. But for now, you are welcome to enjoy all the free content on my blog + podcast, my book, The Art of Money, or join my year-long community program that is now “on-demand” and offers a great buddy discount. So there are a few solid options at different price points. Thank you all for being a part of my larger community. I’m very grateful to do work that I enjoy so much and love getting to support so many dear humans. #creative #financialtherapy #financialtherapist #somatictherapist #author #creativepreneur #mamapreneur #gratitude #therapistsofinstagram #financialcoach 
When we slow down and trust our body’s wisdom, it will reveal to us what we most need. Book quote from The Art of Money: A Life-Changing Guide to Financial Happiness.

Today was a beautiful day to go on a long and slow walk with a girlfriend. It’s so incredibly lush right now. And I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for summer. #summer #nature #naturewalk #bouldercolorado #naturesbeauty #walking
