Understanding the Weight of Money


You can bring your money struggles into the therapy room. And you should. Money carries everything: your family's survival stories, your parents' fears, and the pressure to make it look easy when it's not.


Maybe you were raised to never talk about what's in the bank. Perhaps you learned to hide financial stress behind a "strong" face. You might have been taught to just keep working and figure it out alone. But what if I told you that your relationship with money didn't start with you?


It began generations ago, shaped by lack, survival, and whatever it took to make it through. This history shows up in various ways. You might feel a wave of panic when you check your account. Guilt may wash over you when you spend on yourself. You could find yourself in fights that seem never-ending.


The Impact of Generational Patterns


These generational patterns can be heavy. They affect not just your financial decisions but also your emotional well-being. The pressure to carry it all without help can be overwhelming.


In therapy, we create a safe space to break these cycles. It’s not just about addressing family wounds; it’s about healing financial ones too. We explore emotional pain and the burdens that come with it.


You're allowed to voice your feelings. You can say:


  • "I'm terrible with money."

  • "I'm afraid for my future."

  • "We always fight about money."

  • "I feel guilty for wanting more."

  • "I wasn't taught any of this."


And then? We untangle it. Together.


Embracing Vulnerability in Therapy


Vulnerability is a strength. It takes courage to admit your struggles. In our sessions, you don’t need to keep pretending you’ve got it all together. Money wounds are real, and they’re absolutely welcome in my therapy space.


When we acknowledge these feelings, we can start to heal. It’s a journey, and every step counts. You might feel hesitant at first, but remember, you are not alone. Many share similar experiences.


The Path to Financial Empowerment


Let’s talk about empowerment. Therapy is not just about addressing pain; it’s about finding strength. Together, we can work towards understanding your financial history. We can explore how it shapes your current reality.


Imagine feeling confident when you check your bank account. Picture yourself making financial decisions without guilt. This is possible. It starts with understanding your money story.


Your healing includes your money story. It’s a vital part of who you are. By embracing this aspect, you can break free from generational patterns and financial stress.


Taking the First Step


Are you ready to take the first step? It can feel daunting, but remember, every journey begins with a single step. You deserve to explore your relationship with money in a safe, supportive environment.
