Abstract

Widows represent one of the fastest-growing demographics due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Many widows also lost their family's financial manager because more men hold the role of household financial manager. When their spouse dies, the widow can experience unhealthy attitudes towards finances and financial anxiety. The Changes and Grief Model for Financial Guidance pairs financial therapy techniques and inquiry methods, such as The Work of Byron Katie®, with the grief process and the change cycle. Using this model enables financial practitioners, mental health practitioners, and financial therapists to recognize the stage of grief the widow is experiencing and use the proper financial therapy modalities to support the money-avoidant widow. The model presented will provide the process to deepen client relationships through meaningful communication while compassionately supporting moneyavoidant widows through financial decisions during the difficult initial stages of grief. © 2021.

当金钱无法避免:利用变化和悲伤模型帮助逃避金钱的寡妇(自由贸易协会最佳论文奖)

由于全球COVID-19大流行，丧偶妇女是增长最快的人口之一。许多寡妇也失去了家庭的财务经理，因为越来越多的男性担任家庭财务经理的角色。当他们的配偶去世时，寡妇可能会对财务和财务焦虑产生不健康的态度。财务指导的变化和悲伤模型将财务治疗技术和询问方法(如拜伦·凯蒂的作品)与悲伤过程和变化周期相结合。使用这个模型可以使财务从业者、心理健康从业者和财务治疗师认识到寡妇正在经历的悲伤阶段，并使用适当的财务治疗方式来支持逃避金钱的寡妇。所提出的模型将提供通过有意义的沟通加深客户关系的过程，同时在悲伤的艰难初始阶段通过财务决策同情地支持逃避金钱的寡妇。©2021。版权所有。
