Helping Forge New Financial Paths
Aaron Filipski {Contributing Writer
or many women involved in a divorce
or who are recently widowed, the chal-
lenge of navigating new financial land-
scapes can add undue stress and anxiety to an
already unpleasant circumstance.
Rebecca Abel, of the Integrated Financial
Solutions Group — a franchise of Ameriprise
Financial — understands this dynamic.
As a Certified Financial Planner for more
than 15 years, Abel has crafted much of her
practice around the unique needs of clients
going through life transitions and holds the
specialist designation of Certified Divorce
Financial Analyst — setting her apart from
many in her field.
Most importantly though, she offers
her clients unparalleled compassion and
understanding while helping them restructure
their finances.
"I take a holistic, high-touch approach
with my clients," Abel said. "I give them the
tools necessary to make financial decisions
with confidence. Women are asked to make
important financial decisions with serious
short- and long-term consequences during
F
emotionally challenging times. I take them
by the hand and present them with clear,
understandable options!'
Abel graduated from the University of
Michigan with a degree in psychology. Late
in her academic career she also discovered
her interest in and aptitude for financial
management. The two disciplines influence
her hybrid approach to advising.
And it's not only compassionate; it's
also effective. Abel earned a 95 percent
satisfaction rating among clients, has been
named a 5-Star Wealth Manager by Hour
magazine, and was selected as "Best Financial
Planner" by readers of the Jewish News.
In 2012 she founded the nonprofit
Women's Divorce Resource Center — an
organization with the mission of empowering
and educating women contemplating or
going through the divorce process by offering
educational opportunities and resources
through workshops related to the legal,
financial and emotional aspects of divorce.
Abel sits on the board of the Michigan
Inter-Professional Association on Marriage,
e ecca Abe ,
Divorce and the Family, is a member of the
Association of Divorce Financial Planners, the
Institute of Divorce Financial Analysts, and is
a lifetime member of Hadassah. In 2010 she
founded the Jewish Women's Professional
Network.
In every case, Abel has proven herself
to be a capable,
compassionate,
professional, dedicated
to the financial well-
being of her clients.
