For Mental Health Professionals
Trauma & Money
Work with money as a survival issue.
A trauma informed, somatic and psychologically grounded training for therapists, delivered with the Procovo Institute.
19–21 November 2027 · 3-day live course
Why trauma informed matters
Money is never just money.
It holds safety, survival and belonging.
And it carries our history.
When clients are dysregulated, distressed or at capacity, standard approaches to money can miss the mark. This training helps you recognise the nervous-system imprint of trauma on financial decisions — and respond with skill, integrity and care.
What you'll be able to do
Clinical confidence with money.
Recognise
Identify trauma responses presenting as financial behaviour — freeze, fight, fawn and collapse.
Regulate
Sequence regulation first, before any practical money work begins.
Understand
Work with intergenerational financial patterns and money as a survival issue.
Intervene
Apply evidence-based interventions that rebuild client financial resilience.
Refer
Hold the line between therapeutic work and regulated financial advice, with clear language for referring on.
Sustain
Protect your own wellbeing with vicarious-trauma and burnout awareness.
The syllabus
Four modules, built around real practice.
Foundations of Financial Wellbeing
The psychology of money, financial behaviours, and the trauma informed approach.
Money, Trauma & the Nervous System
How financial stress and trauma show up in clients, and how to work with them safely.
Assessment & Conversation Tools
Practical frameworks and tools — including the Money Mental Health Cards — for client conversations.
Applied Practice
Case studies, supervised practice, and integrating financial wellbeing into your professional work.

More about JaneQuestions
Before you enrol
- I'm not a financial professional — is this for me?
- Yes. The training is designed for therapeutic professionals. No financial background is needed and nothing asks you to give financial advice.
- Will this push me outside my scope of practice?
- No. The course is explicit about scope and gives you language for referring on to an adviser or financial counsellor.
- Is it accredited for my registration?
- It's professional training rather than an accredited CPD or CEU activity in every jurisdiction. Check your association's rules before claiming.
- How somatic is the material?
- The core model treats financial behaviour as a nervous system state and puts regulation before practical money work.
