Financial Therapy for Psychotherapists
Offering Virtual Appointments Only
helping therapists heal their relationship with money
One of my professional missions is to support fellow clinicians in feeling more confident and grounded when it comes to money. Research suggests we carry between 50–200 unconscious money-related beliefs—and without curiosity and reflection, it’s easy to let these beliefs silently shape our financial decisions and patterns.
As therapists, we’re taught the importance of “doing our own work.” But how often does that include exploring your personal relationship with money?
Did your graduate program offer a course titled “Therapist-Self in Relationship to Money, Business, and Client Outcomes”?
If yours was anything like mine, it didn’t.
As part of my own financial psychology training—where I was in the “client” seat—I discovered how deeply my unexamined money beliefs were affecting both my personal finances and the way I ran my business.
It’s not uncommon for mental health professionals to hold negative beliefs about money or wealth. These often lead to avoidant behaviors—in life, in private practice, and even in the therapy room.

One-Time Deep Dive Business Consult
Explore specific financial challenges, setting up a system to run a successful practice, or even weathering the transition between going off of insurance panels and having a fee-only practice and setting an hourly rate.
This focused one-time consultation can be helpful to talk through ideas and to explore money and financial dynamics in your clinical practice.
This session offers an opportunity to take a deep dive into one or two specific areas where you feel stuck or uncertain in your business.
Common topics addressed in these strategy sessions include:
Wanting to raise your fees but feeling blocked.
Exploring whether leaving insurance panels is feasible.
Determining a sustainable hourly rate from a business standpoint.
Navigating financial differences when considering a group practice with a colleague.
Managing concerns about “what are my colleagues going to think” if I don’t accept insurance.

The Individual Financial Therapy Process
We begin with your money story—a personal exploration of your financial upbringing, experiences, and inherited beliefs. You'll identify your dominant money scripts—the unconscious narratives that drive your money behaviors—and begin to understand their origins and impact.
From there, we connect these scripts to your present-day financial choices and habits. Are they helping or hindering you? Together, we’ll reframe outdated beliefs, explore new perspectives, and practice behaviors that align with the life and practice you want.
This is a process of awareness, insight, and application. And you won’t be doing it alone—I provide steady support as you build new, sustainable money habits.
Why It Matters
When you understand your own relationship with money, you gain clinical clarity and confidence. You establish stronger boundaries and show up differently—for yourself, and for your clients. Money becomes a neutral, approachable topic in the therapy room.
Shift your relationship with money. Improve client outcomes. Create meaning from your money story.

““I’d done a lot of thinking about my financial beliefs but wasn’t really able to change anything with just books and regular therapy…I recognized that I needed extra support and help in changing things in my business…I gained a deeper understanding of my money mindset beliefs and the ways the beliefs of my family impacted my own experience.” MJ, Psychotherapist”
