…using a proven therapy-informed approach that helps you talk about money, understand each other, and finally feel like a team.

Most couples try to talk about money… and end up in the same fight.
We guide you into safe, structured conversations that lower defenses, ease tension, and get both voices heard.
No yelling. No shutting down. Just real connection.

Money struggles aren’t just about numbers — they’re about emotions, patterns, and old wounds.
Our process blends therapeutic insight with practical tools so you don’t just “budget,” you actually heal and plan together.
You’ll leave with both clarity and compassion.

Real change doesn’t happen in one talk.
We help you build habits, systems, and shared goals that keep working long after the first breakthrough.
It’s not just about fixing a fight — it’s about building a future you both feel safe and excited about.

You’ve tried brushing it off.
You’ve tried avoiding the subject.
You’ve even tried to “just stick to the budget.”
But the tension is still there.
…that pit in your stomach every time the credit card bill comes.
…the silence after one of you shuts down.
…the arguments that start small and spiral out of control.
And whether you’re the one carrying all the financial stress…
or the one who feels left out of the decisions…
You’re exhausted.
Tired of the same arguments.
Tired of feeling misunderstood.
Tired of wondering if you’ll ever get on the same page.
That’s exactly why we created Healthy Love & Money.
❌ Not another budgeting app.
❌ Not another financial “expert” telling you to cut lattes.
But a proven, therapy-informed framework that helps couples:
✅ Create safe, honest conversations
✅ Understand the emotions driving money fights
✅ Build a plan you both feel good about
…so you can stop fighting about money and start building a future together.
You’re tired of money being the topic that always leads to tension or silence.
You’re open to exploring not just the “numbers,” but the emotions and patterns driving your money struggles.
You’re committed to making changes — even if it means trying a new, therapy-informed approach.
You want a safe, structured way to talk about money that actually works.
You’re ready to invest time in your relationship’s financial health, not just keep hoping it gets better on its own.
You want a quick-fix budgeting hack or magic formula to make problems disappear.
You’re not willing to have honest conversations about money (even if they feel uncomfortable at first).
You’d rather keep repeating the same fights than try something new.
You think the issue is only “about dollars” and not the deeper dynamics of your relationship.
You’re looking for someone else to “do it all for you” instead of showing up together.

If money has become a source of stress, conflict, or silence in your relationship, this work is designed for you.
Couples in their 40s, 50s, and beyond often benefit most because they’re ready to create lasting change.
Not at all.
While it’s powerful when both partners are involved, many clients start individually.
You can begin on your own and invite your partner when they’re ready.
You’ll get guided sessions with a therapy-informed financial expert, tools to help you talk openly about money, and a clear roadmap for building healthier financial habits together.
This isn’t traditional therapy.
It’s a safe, structured space to talk about money without judgment.
We focus on practical steps, shared goals, and better communication—not lying on a couch.
Many couples notice relief after the very first session because they finally feel heard and understood.
Long-term change happens as you keep building new habits and systems together.
That’s exactly why this approach works—it combines the strengths of both worlds.
We address not only the numbers but also the emotions, beliefs, and patterns driving them.
Nope.
Whether you’re financially savvy or avoid opening your bank app, we meet you where you are.
The goal is clarity, not perfection.
