If many of our clients suffer from money anxiety during good times, in today's financial climate, they may be in a state of panic--reduced to primitive, irrational survivalist thinking when making financial decisions. In this workshop, you'll learn how to help individuals and couples calm down, examine their fears and anxieties, and move from dysfunctional coping strategies to a more mature, rational, decision-making mode. By exploring common money myths that undermine the ability to make intelligent choices, gender differences about money, polarization patterns in couples that lead to conflict, and money personality styles, you'll learn how to help clients achieve "money harmony," a peaceful coexistence with financial realities. We'll also discuss money dysfunctions--compulsive overspending, hoarding, and money avoidance--and how to overcome them.
