Create richer lives for yourself and your clients
Financial counseling is a rapidly growing field, and as a pioneer in this area, Karen McCall has helped blaze the trail. Early on, she recognized the need for a practical, realistic path to financial stability. Only by dealing with all levels of a person’s relationship to money—the practical, spiritual, and emotional—can we create long-lasting benefits in their lives.

Each year, Karen takes a number of dedicated people through the process to become proficient with the MoneyMinder® system and the skills she has learned in thousands of client scenarios, in her more than 20 years of financial counseling experience. How might you benefit from this same training?

You’ll feel the joy and fulfillment that comes from helping people. You will help them in direct and measurable ways. You will empower them to get out of crippling debt, to earn to their fullest potential, and to overcome the need to spend as a path to happiness.

You’ll also open the doors to potential new income for yourself—either complementing your existing client practice, or developing a new business in financial counseling. The demand for this process that Karen has experienced in her work and workshops across the country is tremendous.

She and experienced Institute faculty will provide you with the specific tools and methods to guide people on this journey toward financial stability and order. You’ll start making money even before your training is complete—with practice clients that are part of the curriculum. Once you are certified, you’ll receive exposure on the Financial Recovery Institute website.

Training personalized to your needs
Training begins, as does all Karen’s work, with a personal interview to assess your own needs and goals. During the interview, we’ll determine the level of training that would work best for you, whether you are expanding an existing practice or launching a new career.

Training begins with individual sessions with faculty over the telephone, or in person, if so desired. The program continues with individual and group work at the pace that is best for you. As you progress through the levels of training, you will develop the awareness to decide what your next steps will be.
Through this training you will:

  • Learn how to recognize the hidden clues to financial dysfunction, and discover how to best help each client through his or her particular money challenges.

  • Develop specific skills and techniques for working with clients who have money issues—whether you are building a practice or enhancing an existing one.

  • Gain hands-on experience with the tools designed to help clients achieve clarity and stabilize their financial lives.

  • Build skills for managing your practice, including time management, rate-setting, and maintaining client records.

  • Learn how to market your business, attracting the right clients and building your professional reputation.

What is the MoneyMinder® system?
Based on the insights Karen McCall has gleaned from her more than 20 years as a practicing financial counselor, the MoneyMinder® system is designed to provide understanding that will lead to true behavior change. It is a system to help clients clarify their financial goals and visualize how money decisions lead toward—or away from—those goals. Using the MoneyMinder® system, you’ll teach your clients how to achieve peace in the midst of the anxiety, stress, and suffering that are caused by fundamental problems with money. You will help them find wholeness and fulfillment—no matter how much money they have.

It’s not just tracking—it’s transformational.

The skills you acquire will make it possible for you to help anyone create a richer life for herself no matter how hidden or entrenched her issues with money. You will fundamentally change the lives of your clients.
