About Us

Why The Name Trivas?

Trivas is Swedish for “to thrive”.

Our goal at Trivas Financial is to help you thrive, not only in your finances, but in your family, your relationships, and mentally. We know that finances are a high stressor for individuals and families. We believe that if our clients feel confident in their financial plans by hiring professional advisors and offloading their financial planning, they can spend more time doing the things they love.

People who reflect on their values before making a decision of almost any kind, including a financial decision, make better decisions. Values reflection won’t make you smarter, but values reflection will make you more rational.

– Doug Lennick
