Self-report living with ABI (e.g., traumatic brain injury, stroke, non-traumatic brain injury, or brain injury due to other mechanisms) and chronic/ongoing ABI related symptoms or changes. 3. Self-report to be at least 6 months since the last or only ABI incident (to ensure not in acute stage of brain injury recovery). 4. Currently living in Winnipeg, Manitoba (i.e., the city where the in-person intervention sessions will take place). 5. Can participate sessions that are up to 1-hour in length. 6. Can identify 3 financial-related goals they want to address during the study/financial coaching program over the next 3-4 months. 7. Are interested in wanting to address their financial-related goals with a trained Occupational Therapist. 8. Able to attend in-person sessions at various Winnipeg locations that are convenient for them and if transportation cost support is provided (e.g., parking costs, bus tickets, taxi costs). The exclusion criteria for ABI-survivor participants are: 1. Are not able to participate in in-person sessions that are at least 45 minutes long. 2. Are not able to communicate in English (verbal \& written) 3. Unable to complete informed consent and capacity check questions for this study (see informed consent forms). As the investigators are only looking to recruit up to five (n=5) ABI-survivor participants for this study, during screening the investigators will use maximum variation sampling (a specific form of purposive sampling) to guide inclusion if more than five ABI-survivors express interest in this study and are eligible to participate. During screening, the investigators will ask people about self-identified gender in an open-ended question that the investigators then categorize (i.e., man, woman, non-binary) and age (i.e., 18-30 years old, 31-60 years old, greater than 60 years old). Age and gender have been noted to have an influence on financial capability and financial well-being. Close-Other Support Persons The inclusion criteria for the Close-Other Support Person are: 1. Be identified by the ABI-survivor participant as someone they would like to have involved in this intervention. 2. Be 18 years or older. 3.

Be willing and able to participate in at least 3 sessions in-person financial coaching intervention sessions with the ABI-survivor participant (with times and locations to be scheduled convenient to support-person, the ABI-survivor participant, and OT interventionist) The exclusion criteria for the Close-Other Support Person are: 1. Are not able to participate in in-person sessions that are at least 45 minutes long. 2. Are not able to communicate in English (verbal \& written) 3. Unable to complete informed consent and capacity check questions for this study (see informed consent forms). 4. The ABI-participant does not provide consent for this person to be a part of their intervention.
