Hi! I help folks who are new to YNAB, have ADHD, and/or have variable income feel confident managing their money in a nonjudgmental and shame-free environment. Together we'll get your budget set up, bring greater awareness to your money flow, and create a more peaceful relationship with your finances.
My Background
I've been an avid YNAB user for many years, have always loved math and numbers, and jumped at the opportunity to become a Certified YNAB Coach in 2022. I also have my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specializing in disordered eating, and work as an Intuitive Eating Counselor in addition to YNAB coaching. I'm thrilled to be able to combine my love of YNAB with my love of counseling to support people logistically as well as emotionally on their financial journey. *YNAB coaching is not therapy, but emotions are welcome here*
Why Work with Me
As your YNAB coach, I’ll help you set up your YNAB budget, teach you the ins and outs of the software, coach you through different mindset shifts, and help you find clarity and confidence in your spending decisions. Your budget is a reflection of your life, your needs, and your priorities. We’ll tailor our work together to answer the questions you have and skip over what you already know. Not only am I here to support your numbers, I’m here to support your mental well-being as well! Dealing with finances can be an emotional ride!
Why I Coach
YNAB changed my life. Sounds cliche, but it did! I have ADHD and this is the first finance software that clicked with my brain. That said, YNAB can feel complex and dense if you're not a numbers person or feel overwhelmed by your finances. I'm here to help you over the hump. If you've tried different budgeting softwares, feel like numbers aren't your thing, or have ADHD and feel like other financial advice doesn’t work for you, I’m passionate about helping YNAB feel accessible to you!
