Looking for a financial coach in Carmarthenshire? You don't need to meet in person.
Delphina's 1-1 financial coaching works over video call, from £99 a session, with a free 15 minute call to start. Your real numbers stay on screen in front of both of you, so you get the same focused, practical support as an in-person coach — without the local rates, and without leaving home.
Financial coaching is different from financial advice. A coach doesn't tell you what to do with your money, they help you understand your financial situation, build a plan you believe in, and stay on track. In Carmarthenshire, Delphina's financial coaches work with people who want to take control of their retirement planning but don't need or can't justify the cost of regulated financial advice. Coaching sessions focus on your specific situation, your goals, and the practical steps to get there.
"I finally looked at my pension statement and had no idea if £80,000 was good or bad for my age. Delphina showed me where I stood. I was on track. I nearly cried with relief." — Sarah M., Surrey
Frequently asked questions
What does a financial coach do?
A financial coach helps you understand your situation, set goals, build a plan you believe in, and stay accountable to it. Sessions are practical: your numbers, your options, your next steps. Unlike a regulated adviser, a coach doesn't recommend specific products; they build your ability to decide well yourself.
How much does a financial coach cost in the UK?
Delphina's 1-1 financial coaching starts at £99 per session, with no percentage-of-assets fees. Compare that with £150+ per hour for regulated advice or 0.5-1% of your assets every year for an ongoing adviser relationship. Delphina starts with a free 15 minute call, so you can judge the fit before spending anything.
Do I need a financial coach or a financial adviser?
Ask what's actually blocking you. If it's clarity, habits, or confidence ("am I on track?", "what should I prioritise?"), a coach solves that affordably. If it's a specific regulated decision (which pension to transfer, which product to buy), you need an FCA-authorised adviser. Many people use a coach first, and advice only at the decision point.
Is financial coaching regulated?
No. Financial coaching sits outside FCA regulation because coaches don't make personal recommendations about specific financial products. That's a feature and a limitation: it keeps coaching affordable and education-focused, but it means a coach should always tell you when a decision crosses into regulated territory, and Delphina's coaches do.
Can I get a financial coach in Carmarthenshire without meeting in person?
Yes. Delphina's 1-1 coaching is delivered over video call, so you don't need a coach based in Carmarthenshire. Your real numbers stay on screen in front of both of you, and each session builds on the last. Sessions start at £99, with a free 15 minute call first.
