What is a financial therapist?

A Financial Therapist is a professional who helps individuals and families navigate the emotional, psychological, and behavioral aspects of money. They combine principles of financial planning with mental health support to address issues like financial stress, money-related conflicts, or unhealthy financial behaviors. These professionals may have backgrounds in financial advising, psychology, or therapy and use counseling techniques to improve clients' financial well-being. Financial Therapists help clients develop healthier relationships with money and make more informed financial decisions.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of a financial therapist?

Financial Therapists typically spend their days meeting with clients to address the emotional and behavioral aspects of money management, helping them understand and modify financial habits, and developing practical strategies for financial health. They work closely with individuals and families, often using therapeutic techniques combined with financial analysis. Collaboration with financial planners, mental health professionals, and other advisors is also common to ensure comprehensive client support. Documentation, continuing education, and staying updated on best practices are important ongoing responsibilities. This dynamic role requires both one-on-one client work and multidisciplinary teamwork.

How do you become a financial therapist?

To become a financial therapist, individuals typically need a background in finance, psychology, counseling, or social work, along with specialized training in financial therapy. Certification programs, such as those offered by the Financial Therapy Association, can enhance credentials, and strong interpersonal skills are essential for working effectively with clients. Some roles may require a master's degree or higher in a related field.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a financial therapist?

To thrive as a Financial Therapist, you need expertise in both financial planning and mental health counseling, often supported by credentials such as Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and relevant mental health licensure or Financial Therapy Association certification. Familiarity with tools like budgeting software, financial analysis platforms, and client management systems is essential. Excellent listening skills, empathy, and cross-disciplinary communication abilities help build trust and navigate sensitive conversations. These qualifications are crucial for effectively guiding clients through the emotional and practical challenges of financial decision-making.

Mental Health & Financial Wellness Therapist - Lmsw

Honest Hour LLC

Jersey City, NJ โ€ข Remote

$60/hr

Full-time

Re-posted 13 days ago


Job description

Remote — New York licensure required; additional compensation for dual NY/NJ licensure

This role requires active licensure and residency in New York. Candidates who are not currently NY-based will not be considered for this position.

Employment type: W-2, Full-Time

Compensation: Starting at $40/hr (clinical) | $20/hr (admin & community engagement)

Most therapy practices treat financial stress as background noise. At Honest Hour, we treat it as clinical material.

We're hiring a full-time Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) to join our financial therapy track — a dedicated pathway for clinicians who believe that money, identity, and emotional well-being are deeply connected and want to build a practice that reflects that.

This isn't a financial coaching role. You'll carry a full general therapy caseload while developing a specialization in the intersection of mental health and financial wellness — with direct mentorship from a Certified Financial Social Worker and up to $700 in training support in your first year to pursue your CFSW credential.

If you've already taken coursework in financial therapy, or you're simply drawn to this work and ready to grow into it, we want to hear from you.

WHO WE SERVE

Honest Hour provides virtual therapy for adults across New York and New Jersey who are ready to do the deeper work — emotionally, relationally, and financially.

Clients are often:

  • First-generation professionals navigating money guilt, burnout, or identity conflict

  • BIPOC individuals unlearning scarcity mindsets while building wealth and stability

  • High-achieving caregivers and helpers who carry financial stress alongside emotional weight

  • Millennials and Gen Xers managing anxiety, career transitions, and complicated money narratives

  • Adults who want honest, culturally grounded support that connects their emotional lives to their financial ones

We practice therapy that is practical, compassionate, and real — helping clients heal emotional wounds, rewrite money stories, and build lives that actually feel good to live.

WHAT MAKES THIS TRACK DIFFERENT

  • Direct mentorship from a Certified Financial Social Worker with years of clinical experience at the intersection of mental health and money

  • Up to $700 in financial therapy training support in year 1 — enough to cover the full cost of CFSW certification

  • $100 annual CEU stipend in subsequent years

  • A growing pipeline of financially-focused referrals as the specialization develops

  • A practice that already centers money as a clinical theme — you won't be building from scratch

DAY TO DAY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Maintain a full caseload of 25 sessions/week (full-time) (adult individuals)

  • Deliver a minimum of 12 evening hours per week (5–9 PM, Monday–Friday)

  • Document session notes in SimplePractice within your practice's required turnaround window

  • Participate in structured group supervision toward LMSW licensure

  • Integrate financial wellness themes into general caseload while building specialization under CFSW mentorship

  • Engage in ongoing professional development (CEU stipend, financial therapy training)

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

  • $40/hr clinical rate

  • $20/hr administrative rate (team meetings, community engagement, documentation support)

  • Additional compensation for dual NY/NJ licensure

  • Up to $700 financial therapy training stipend in year 1 (CFSW certification)

  • $100 annual CEU stipend after year 1

  • Supervision included — individual and group, with financial therapy mentorship

  • Full administrative support: billing, scheduling, and claims management

  • Flexible weekday scheduling with structure and autonomy

  • Collaborative, values-driven team environment

SCHEDULE: This is a full-time, weekday role. Clinicians build their own schedules with flexibility, with consistent availability required, including a minimum of 12 evening hours (5–9 PM, Monday–Friday). Full-time clinicians maintain 25 sessions/week.

Compensation:

$40 - $60 hourly

  • Ability to work independently in a remote environment

  • This role requires active licensure and residency in New York. Candidates who are not currently NY-based will not be considered for this position.

PREFERRED

  • Demonstrated interest in financial therapy — including coursework, a certificate program, self-directed study, or clinical experience at the intersection of mental health and money

  • Post-master's training in evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, EFT, Gottman, IFS, ERP, or similar modalities

  • Bilingual (Spanish preferred)

  • Experience or genuine interest in BIPOC mental health, caregiver stress, or high-stress communities

YOU'LL THRIVE AT HONEST HOUR IF YOU'RE

  • Passionate about the intersection of emotional well-being and financial health

  • Growth-oriented and excited to develop within a structured supervision and professional growth pathway

  • Organized and dependable, with consistent weekday availability

  • Team-minded, open to feedback, and invested in community care

  • Tech-savvy and comfortable with SimplePractice or similar EHR platforms
