A little note

from me to you:

Finding a financial therapist might seem challenging, but there's good news! More professionals are entering the field, and experts from both financial and therapeutic backgrounds are increasingly cross-training. This means you can find a therapist with financial literacy training or a financial professional equipped to address the emotional aspects of money.

If you're interested in working with me directly, you have the option to hire me for speaking engagements or brand collaborations. While I don't currently offer 1:1 sessions, you can join my interest list to be notified if my business structure changes in the future. Please note that this is not a waitlist.

Keep in mind that not all professionals using the term "financial therapist" are licensed mental healthcare providers. Be sure to research and choose a provider that aligns with your needs (read more about this in my blog post here).

Financial therapy practitioners come from various home disciplines, approaches, and focus areas. As stated above, not all providers listed on the directory are mental health clinicians, many are financial planners or advisors with training or an interest in the psychological side of money. Always do your due diligence before working with a professional and ensuring you are getting the right service to meet your needs.

PERSONAL FINANCE EDUCATION

Invested Development Course

This investing course by Amanda Holden is great for beginners and intermediate investors! While I was doing most things she recommended, I loved how she broke everything down into understandable bite-sized chunks. With lots of puns and metaphors throughout the course, I was able to stay focused (a tough task for an online course). Amanda teaches you the history of investing, why it’s so important to invest, how to open up retirement accounts, and walks you through buying your first index fund, too.

Loan Sense Student Loan Services

Understanding student loans can feel overwhelming. And if you have other financial goals, like saving up for a house, wedding, or car, getting your student loan balance under control is crucial. Loan Sense is NOT a debt consolidation company; instead, they act as student loan concierges. They learn about your financial goals and help you decide how to create a plan to pay them off while meeting other financial goals.

SAVE ON EVERYDAY ITEMS

Rent The Runway 

I LOVE using Rent The Runway for clothing items beyond fancy occasions like weddings and galas. They have so many great options for work clothes, accessories, and it’s a great way to save money on pricey pieces by renting them, and looking up-to-date (hello, WFH life) when I have to hop on a fancy Zoom call, present at a conference, or attend a networking event.

ThredUp 

Another sustainable and affordable option that helps me answer the question of “what the hell do I wear is ThredUp, an online consignment store. ThredUp has helped me do this in a financially- and eco-friendly manner. This works best when you know what brands and sizes you like, my favorite hack to ensure a good purchase is to filter by “new with tags.” Haven’t shopped ThredUp before?

GoogleFi 

Cell phone service for $20 a month does exist. I’ve been a GoogleFi stan for a long time and love their “Flexible” plan that starts at $20 a month, and your monthly cap is $60 per month. In other words?  You only pay for data used and once you hit 6GB of data, you can keep using as much data as you want but your bill is capped at $60. They have two other plans, too, but the most you’ll pay is $70 per month.

Figo Pet Insurance 

When my sweet pup Birdie was diagnosed with Addison’s disease in the summer of 2021, I was so thankful for Figo Pet Insurance. Instead of stressing about how much her [FIVE] E.R. visits and corresponding medicine would cost, I could focus on getting her the best veterinary care possible and snuggling with her. Figo reimbursed me within days of submitting my vet receipts. I could do it easily from the app too.
