Financial Therapy in the Wall Street Journal

Maggie Baker’s Interview

I was delighted to be interviewed by personal finance writer Veronica Dagher in this article about the rapidly-growing field of financial therapy. As Ms. Dagher writes in the Wall Street Journal, financial therapists can be “invaluable.” We work with couples to decrease the stress that money issues add to a relationship. We also partner with financial advisors to work with their clients. For example, for an overly anxious client, a financial therapist could create a step-by-step action plan so the client could implement the adviser’s recommendations more easily.
