Mind over Money
by Brad Klontz and Ted Klontz
Two financial psychologists on money scripts, the unconscious beliefs from childhood that drive money disorders: avoidance, worship, status, vigilance. It includes assessment tools and exercises for rewriting the scripts, and it is the clinical foundation for the financial therapy field.
