Wealth isn’t just about money — it’s about values, healing, and legacy.
Why Seek Therapy Around Wealth and Legacy?
Wealth and inheritance often carry more than financial weight. Families may face:
Unresolved conflict about who “deserves” what
Guilt or grief tied to financial gain or loss
Pressure to “break cycles” without tools or support
Power struggles between generations or siblings
Silence about money due to cultural or historical trauma
Fear of repeating patterns of disconnection, secrecy, or scarcity
We provide a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental space to name these dynamics, repair trust, and create shared meaning across generations.
Change can be tough.
Whether your family is preparing for a major inheritance, passing down land or a business, or simply beginning to build generational wealth for the first time, emotions can run high. Conversations about money, legacy, and family history are often tied to unspoken trauma, power dynamics, and generational expectations.
At our practice, we offer family therapy for navigating generational wealth in a way that centers healing, communication, and cultural context — especially for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ families who are building or passing on legacy in systems not built for us.
A Holistic Approach to Family Therapy
-
Our Approach to Legacy & Wealth-Focused Family Therapy
We view wealth not just as assets, but as the values, stories, land, labor, resilience, and healing passed through generations. Our therapists are trained to support nuanced, often emotional conversations around:
Intergenerational Communication: Bridging gaps in values, language, and expectations
Family Roles & Boundaries: Clarifying responsibilities without replicating harm
Financial Transparency: Learning to talk about money without shame or secrecy
Power & Privilege: Naming how racism, colonization, capitalism, and heteropatriarchy impact financial dynamics
Legacy Planning: Creating shared goals for what gets passed down — and what gets healed
-
For Families Creating New Wealth, Not Just Inheriting It
Many BIPOC and LGBTQ+ families are the first generation to build wealth — starting businesses, buying property, or establishing long-term security. That journey can feel isolating, especially when navigating family ties, community expectations, and internalized narratives about money.
We help families:
Build healthy foundations for long-term success
Communicate about giving, investing, or saving
Prepare the next generation with emotional and financial readiness
Heal from survival mode while creating space for abundance
