Couples Financial Therapy

What Is Couples Financial Therapy?

All too often there is an absence of communication about money within our most intimate relationships. While discussing finances with your partner or family may feel vulnerable or uncomfortable, the risks of avoiding the discussion are too high.

Opening up a financial dialogue before a crisis, such as unexpected job loss, death of a family member, or medical expenses, will provide a solid foundation and path forward and will transform difficult, emotional money arguments into enjoyable interactions aimed towards uniting and achieving your goals and dreams.

Why Do Couples Seek Financial Therapy?

Many couples seek financial therapy when there is financial conflict or financial infidelity. Couples may also seek financial therapy to learn how to have healthy and productive financial conversations and to address differences in financial beliefs and behaviors.
