Who We Serve

Prevention

We aim to work with young people who already see unhealthy patterns in their relationships or in their finances.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) explores automatic cognitions such as, “I am not a nice person if I don’t give them the loan they want.”

Raising awareness around why there are no red flags, but you know something is wrong. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), boundary-work, and assertiveness training focus on developing communication skills necessary for intentional change.

married couples

Whether you are a married woman exploring your relationship with money or a couple, our focus is to help identify and reduce those points of conflict.

Explore how to reduce conflict around money and arrange finances to be unified, transparent, and automatic. Research on how finances are arranged in both financially abusive and healthy relationships may provide patterns and insight. Financial infrastructures lend themselves to either division or unity.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the automatic thoughts behind a behavior, such as the need for separate bank accounts.

Collaboration with other professionals is integrated, as is helping with case management and intentionally taking the necessary next steps whether there is untreated mental health, substance abuse or trauma.

Financial Abuse Recovery

Our goal is to look at how the trauma around money or exposure to chronic coercive control has eroded confidence about decision-making, basic self-care, and financial skills. 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy investigates automatic cognitions and reframes them. In this case, automatic cognitions around money and coercive control might be that you were told you are not good at managing money. We examine what informed those automatic cognitions and work on restructuring them.

Collaboration with other empathic professionals helps to create a positive experience around finances and aims to develop a legal strategy that empowers.
