Coaching and Counselling

We never know what the future holds, and sometimes, unfortunately, that means unexpected expenses come up.

From medical expenses, to the rising cost of groceries, budgeting can be stressful.

If you need help to determine your financial health or if you want advice about how to start paying down debt, a financial assessment will help you look at your income, assets, expenses and debt to determine your financial situation. From there, our counsellors will work with you to develop spending plans that make sense for you and your family.

Financial Literacy and Empowerment

Financial terminology can often be complicated and confusing. The purpose of Financial Literacy is to strip away the jargon in order to educate and provide information on how to make better financial decisions.

Thunder Bay Counselling offers unbiased information and consumer education on a wide array of topics related to personal money management to help you make the right financial decisions. Our Literacy Education programs are offered in one-on-one and group sessions to meet diverse needs.
