Financial Therapy Gets Personal - Addressing Your Hidden Money-Triggers
Friday, October 6 | 9:00 am – 9:50 am | Providence 1
This workshop will assist financial therapists in identifying our most difficult financial biases, money scripts, and traumas, which can be challenging to recognize since they are often buried deep within our psyche. The exercise will help participants gain insight into these hidden behaviors, allowing them to become more aware of their own financial traumas and improve their work with clients. The session will take attendees on a captivating journey through a novel and enhanced technique for accessing these concealed financial beliefs. It is recommended that participants bring along a sum of cash in small bills that they are comfortable losing.
