Additional Information
I am Elizabeth Snyder. I am a financial planner and investment manager. I transitioned to financial planning after 20 years as a mental health therapist. I saw a need for creating a non-judgmental and non-threatening place where individuals can get their financial questions answered and create a plan. I enjoy working with women who have recently gone through a transition: widowhood, divorce, death or other life transition. I often encounter my clients in the midst of a transition - mixed with loss or sudden money and possibly bigger financial responsibilities than they have ever had before. Ideally, I start working with people before a big transition, however sometimes it takes a big change to take the step and reach out for assistance. This can be a vulnerable time for individuals and I am protective of those I work with as a fee-only and fiduciary planner. I help you put all the financial pieces together into a cohesive strategy that matches you, your family, and your values. I help you organize, strategize, simplify. I partner with you to assist you in making the choices you want.
I am a mother of two children plus a dog and I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. I love to get outside and enjoy our beautiful region and I enjoy working hard and playing hard.
