Dan Honsberger, CFP®

With more than 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, I’ve excelled in bridging the gap between the big picture and the details.

I’m both a spreadsheet person and a people person. I get joy from guiding clients through the complexity of their financial lives and finding creative solutions to everyone’s unique situation. I specialize in navigating complex financial situations with clarity and confidence.

When partnering with a client, I invest substantial time to fully understand each client's unique goals and challenges, delivering thoughtful, tailored strategies far beyond a one-size-fits-all approach.

The adage says that “money isn’t everything.” While true, building financial resources is critical to giving ourselves options and choices about what we can and can’t do.

I started Reel Financial Planning to help people take control of their finances and build the life they want to live. I’m passionate about the outdoors, personal growth, and my community — whether it's road-tripping with my wife Kate, son Albert, and our poodle Calvin, walking my neighborhood, volunteering with Cub Scouts, or casting a line with the Fly Fishers of Virginia.

I love being outside, exploring the world, and furthering my skills. Growing as an angler and hunter helps me better understand my place in the world and helps me feel more connected to my place and time. I do my best to apply these lessons to my work.

Like a skilled fishing guide showing you how to read the water, I guide clients through life’s financial crossroads — from tax and investment planning to estate and education funding — with practical, customized strategies that bring clarity and peace of mind.
