About Us

Built on Trust, Guided by Expertise

Since 2008, Clarity Financial Advisors has helped individuals and families navigate complex financial decisions with confidence and clarity.

Our Story

Founded on a Simple Belief

Clarity Financial Advisors was founded in 2008 in Boston by Katherine Harwell with a conviction that the financial advisory industry could do better. Too many firms prioritized products over people, transactions over relationships, and short-term gains over long-term security.

Katherine left her position as Vice President at Goldman Sachs Wealth Management to build something different: a firm where every advisor is a fiduciary, every recommendation is conflict-free, and every client receives the thoughtful attention that complex financial lives demand.

Today, our team of four senior professionals manages over $680 million in assets for families across the Northeast. We have grown deliberately, choosing depth over breadth, because we believe that meaningful financial guidance requires a genuine understanding of the people we serve.
