Worried your debt will derail your life?
Tried to get a financial plan together, but failed because you were too overwhelmed?
Doing everything you can to avoid your balance and wind up paying the minimum at the last minute?
Feel like you're the only one?
You are not alone. Most of us are in debt. Most of us just don't talk about it. Most of us are embarrassed, and regret the choices that led to debt, or at least worry how it will hurt our future. Most of us feel like we SHOULD have a financial plan and SHOULD be making progress, but we get stuck trying to get it together because it's so overwhelming, disheartening, and embarrassing.
I know the pain. I'm a clinical psychologist who accrued $220,000 in debt pursuing my dream job. It freaked me out, and sent me spiraling. Until I realized that, wait a minute, I'm a psychologist and these are feelings! And if nothing else, I knew how to deal with feelings.
This book contains my 4-week program written by me, a licensed clinical psychologist, to tackle the problem of debt in a completely new way - as a psychological block as much as a financial one. Have you tried to get your act together and failed? This book is the bridge between you and a successful financial plan, as well as reducing all the negative feelings you have about yourself because of debt. I packed it with empirically supported psychological strategies, and wrote it with an irreverent, compassionate flair, so that this book will be entertaining and really help.
There's also free, bonus content available for those who make a purchase available on reliefindebt.com, including audio files of guided meditation and surveys to track the effectiveness of this program.
Learn ways of controlling your anxiety and getting proactive about your debt. Understand that you aren't alone, and get rid of that shame you're dragging around. Use this struggle as a way of deepening your knowledge about yourself to lead a fuller, more meaningful, and richer life. Get your emotions and stories about yourself under control so you can really, finally get that financial plan in order.
Feel like you're drowning in debt? Learn to breathe underwater.
About the Author: I'm a licensed clinical psychologist (PSY26754) in private practice in San Francisco. I see adults and teenagers struggling with addiction, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and spiritual concerns. I also do couples therapy and group therapy, offer trainings to therapists and organizations, and I'm an adjunct faculty at The Wright Institute.
