Wellbeing is a function of physical, mental, emotional, economic, and social factors, among others. At times, an individual’s needs can compete for attention and resources, diminishing some while favoring others. This session introduces a holistic approach to working with clients that blends healthcare and financial education. Join Shawn Young from the Financial Health Institute as he discusses the ways in which financial stress affects overall wellbeing, and shares strategies practitioners can use to help clients manage resources, reduce stress, and improve health. Financial counselors will appreciate the personal finance angle, and learn how and why to work with providers in other fields, agencies, and disciplines. Providers and educators working in fields other than financial counseling will learn about the value of engaging clients in financial health and wellbeing conversations.
This session is part of the OneOp Virtual Conference “Relationships for Readiness.”
