Meet the founder
I've Been There and My Passion is Helping Others to Heal and Improve Their Financial Outlook
Hey hey! I’m Tyana Larise Ingram—Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Financial Social Worker, Certified Financial Education Instructor, and the founder of Financial Healing Circles™. I also serve as Chief Program Officer & Co-Founder of the Financial Social Work Collaborative™, where I support leaders, practitioners, and organizations in integrating healing-centered financial wellness into their work.
With over a decade of experience serving youth, women, and underserved communities, I’ve witnessed firsthand how financial trauma—rooted in scarcity, survival, and systemic inequity—shapes the decisions and wellbeing of the people we serve. My professional journey, combined with my own lived experiences, led me to develop the FREEDOM Framework™, a healing-centered model that addresses the emotional, behavioral, and relational patterns beneath financial struggle.
Today, my work focuses on equipping organizations, community leaders, and practitioners to create trauma-responsive, culturally grounded financial wellness environments where survivors can Heal, Empower, and Prosper. Through Financial Healing Circles™, consulting, and the upcoming Train-the-Trainer Certification, I support teams in transforming how they talk about—and address—money.
I believe financial healing is not just about budgeting; it’s about identity, safety, autonomy, and hope. When we change how communities relate to money, we change futures.
If you’re committed to supporting survivors with compassion, clarity, and healing-centered practice, you’re in the right place. Let’s build something transformational—together.
