Financial Wellness Coaching Takes Hold

April 15, 2009 by RickBryan 

A couple of months ago my friend Lora Sasiela was explaining some aspects of modern psychology and psychiatry and Sigmund Freud’s theories; much of which went over my head, but fascinating nonetheless. Lora is a licensed psychotherapist, and much of her work in the last ten years has been helping people understand the psychological causes of overeating and related health and well-being issues. Recently, Lora and others have discovered that many of the psychological issues behind overeating are the same or similar to the reasons why people spend beyond their means, and are otherwise unable to achieve financial health and well-being. Over eating and over spending are different reactions to the same psychological roadblocks.

Lora and others practicing in this field have demonstrated that the same counseling techniques which help people overcome eating issues can be transferred to help people with financial management issues. Lora’s work has nothing to do with life insurance or annuities or mutual funds, but financial planners know that an awareness of budgeting and the emotional aspects of saving and investing are more important than effective yields on investments. Here’s Lora’s press release from her Financial Wellness Coaching website. I think it’s a great and non-competitive seminar to refer your clients to, and I’ll be there as an added bonus!
