Even in therapy? Even for therapists?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollow the Money addresses a critical gap in therapeutic practice- the reluctance to explore money in clients' lives. Therapists, social workers, and coaches often avoid money conversations, leaving an essential area of identity and relational dynamics unexplored. Traditional training programs rarely provide frameworks or tools for discussing money, resulting in missed opportunities for insight and change.\u003cbr\u003eJudith Stern Peck and Betsy Witten offer a practical, accessible approach to integrating money into therapy. Drawing from experiential workshops, they guide professionals through exercises that build comfort and skill in addressing financial issues. Central to their method is the money-focused genogram, which reveals multigenerational patterns shaping clients' beliefs and behaviors around money   patterns often transmitted invisibly across generations.\u003cbr\u003eThe book combines theory with practice, presenting strategies and principles that help uncover clients' internal money narratives and their impact on emotions, relationships, and decision-making. Through real-life examples from workshop participants, Peck and Witten illustrate common themes such as gendered money associations, class identity, and parenting challenges. These stories demonstrate how understanding money dynamics can lead to profound personal and relational change.\u003cbr\u003eFollow the Money provides therapists and other professionals with a new framework and practical tools to explore financial issues confidently. By \"following the money thread,\" practitioners can help clients achieve greater self-awareness, agency, and healthier behaviors around money   transforming an often-avoided topic into a powerful avenue for growth.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46655892881566,"sku":"UBD-9781538183519","price":59.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781538183519.jpg?v=1774836544","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781538183519","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
