Money Healing: The Hidden Psychology of Wealth is a reflective book about how we relate to money — not as an object to control, but as a psychological and relational field that shapes our choices, needs, desires, and sense of self.
As a psychologist and psychotherapist, I repeatedly encountered how money becomes a silent carrier of fear, loyalty, trauma, and unspoken family narratives — often more powerful than rational planning.
Money Healing grew out of years of psychotherapy practice, academic study, and close work with people navigating uncertainty, responsibility, and choice.
This book brings together clinical experience, psychological research, and lived reflection to offer a deeper understanding of money as part of the human emotional world.
It is an invitation to look at money with honesty, depth, and compassion — and to begin healing the inner dynamics that silently govern financial life, because money is never just money. It is memory, emotion, relationship, and meaning.
Core themes explored in the book
This book explores money as a deeply human experience, touching on themes such as:
- money as relationship and contact
- fear, shame, guilt, and control around wealth
- intergenerational and inherited money patterns
- necessity, security, and the illusion of safety
- emotional regulation and financial decision-making
- power, dependence, autonomy, and freedom
- meaning, value, and inner authority
Each theme is approached psychologically, not morally.
Working with the book
Each chapter of this book closes with an invitation.
The book offers reflective questions, experiential exercises, and gentle practices that allow you to stay in contact with the themes explored.
These moments are spaces for awareness, integration, and honest encounter with yourself.
Some readers move through them slowly, journaling or pausing between chapters.
Others return to them at different stages of life.
You may read this book as reflection, or engage with it as a personal process. There is no right way to work with this book — only your own rhythm. Let it accompany you — rather than instruct you.

“An insightful bridge between mindset work and financial well-being”
“This book doesn’t offer formulas for compound interest — and that’s not its aim. Instead, it changes the internal playing field so that those formulas can actually become usable.
If you invest in the inner journey — healing, reframing, aligning — this book can catalyze real shifts in freedom and wealth.”
