Couples Therapy - Money, Relationships & Generational Patterns
Most couples fighting about money aren't really fighting about money. They're fighting about safety, worth, control, and survival patterns that were handed down long before they ever met each other.
You don’t have to be in crisis to start. Plenty of couples come in before the damage is done, wanting to build shared goals, understand each other’s money story, and get ahead of the patterns before they take hold.
A financial advisor manages your investments. A financial planner manages your budget. Neither is trained for what’s driving the fight between you two. I am, along with the practical, money side.
What we work on
-
Financial Conflict
Getting underneath the arguments to what's actually driving them.

One of you saves for safety. One of you spends for relief. Neither is wrong, but it keeps causing the same fight.

Financial Infidelity
Rebuilding trust after money secrets, hidden debt, or financial deception.
-
Money & Intimacy
The physical and emotional distance that shows up after a hard conversation about the bank account.

-
Generational Money Patterns
Identifying what each person learned about money growing up, and how those lessons are playing out between you now.
