I am seeking professional help getting overwhelming combined debt with fiance under control along with setting future financial goals. I am willing to pay for this service similar to a personal financial advisor. I do not want portfolio advice at this time which eliminates all financial advisor/analyst that I have seen to this point.

Does anybody know what specifically I should be looking for? Does anybody have someone to recommend in the Houston TX area?

If you are trying to reign in debt, then you may wish to consider meeting with a credit counselor. Many agencies offer a consultation with no fees. You can ask about different options that are available based upon your current situation.

One word of advice: financial problems can put a strain on any relationship. If you do enroll in a plan to consolidate debt, you should probably keep yours and your fiance’s debt separate. If you need to give each other money to balance out your budget, so be it. Keeping these accounts separate can help mitigate the strain on your relationship.

If you would like to meet with a credit counselor, consider meeting with one in person. You may wish to try one of these agencies in the directory below.
