TCI Wealth Advisors is an independent, fee- only, fiduciary providing comprehensive, coordinated and objective wealth management advice to individuals and families. We serve as a trusted advisor, partnering with our clients on their journey toward financial clarity, prosperity and overall well-being. Our mission extends beyond simply helping clients manage their money; we also believe we have the opportunity to help clients develop a more robust understanding of the relationship between their money and their happiness. Our wealth management process helps clients align their primary resources (money, time, energy) with their priorities. We help clients plan for the future while also helping them live a purpose-filled life today.
With five offices and over $3 billion in assets under management, we are large enough to provide sophisticated solutions to complicated problems, yet small enough to have personalized relationships with you and your family. For over 30 years we have been a purpose-driven organization, driven to empower, educate and advise clients as they work towards their personal definition of success.
