What Is Financial Therapy?
Financial therapy combines psychology and money skills to change the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that drive our financial lives.
Financial therapy is a field that brings together mental health support and practical financial guidance. Rather than only asking what you should do with money, it explores why you do what you do.
Who is it for?
Anyone whose relationship with money causes stress, conflict, avoidance or shame — and professionals who want to support clients in these areas.
How is it different from financial advice?
A financial adviser focuses on products and plans. Financial therapy focuses on the emotional and behavioural patterns underneath, so plans can actually stick.
