Our Process

Gatien Strategic Wealth Management was born out of the desire to find a BETTER way to help clients improve and organize their financial lives into an easy-to-understand format. Our objective is to take all the pieces of your financial plan and put them in place. Each plan is unique. Many of those pieces may not be relevant to you or your plan at this time, but as your life unfolds and your needs evolve, our process, Life In Motion, helps you pursue your financial independence.

This process integrates wealth management with risk and debt management, tax planning, and philanthropy.

CASH MANAGEMENT

LEGACY PLANNING

CHARITABLE GIVING

Many of the families we work with have causes they care deeply about and we love to help facilitate charitable giving

 

VALUE ADDED SERVICES

Schedule a consultation

Do you want to know if you’re on track for a work-optional lifestyle? Our first step is an introductory meeting where we discuss your financial and lifestyle goals and what you expect from the financial planning process. We review what you need to know about us, our practice and our approach to financial planning. From there, we decide if we are a good fit to work together. In our experience, this is the foundation of a solid long-term relationship.
