Individual and Couples Financial Counseling

Ann C. House, MS, AFC ®

The Americian Psychological Association (APA) reported that 72% of Americans are stressed about money. This percentage is even higher in younger adults. As an accredited financial counselor I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples reduce debt and manage shaky finances. I will review your spending, earning, saving, and your financial habits to make proposals on how to create assets and decrease debt. My goal is to teach you how to manage your money effectively and responsibly. Financial management is about creating better behaviors to achieve lifelong successful financial outcomes. Let me help you take control of your financial life.

Client Success

A couple I worked with told me that for the first time in 30 years they don’t fight about money anymore. And a young adult reduced impulsive spending, paid off their car, created an emergency savings, and opened an IRA.
