Lagom pre-empts new money book by 'financial psychotherapist' Vicky Reynal

Lagom – the health and wellbeing imprint at Bonnier Books UK – has pre-empted "financial psychotherapist" Vicky Reynal’s new book, Money on Your Mind.

Senior editor Madiya Altaf acquired UK and Commonwealth rights from Jason Bartholomew at BKS Agency, and the book will be published on 9th May 2024 in hardback, e-book and audiobook.

"In Money on Your Mind, financial psychotherapist Vicky Reynal will dive into different money behaviours such as overspending, underspending, money secrets and self-sabotage to reveal how our past experiences impact our relationship with money," the synopsis says. "It will help readers unpack and understand what is driving their financial behaviours for an improved and healthier relationship with money."

Reynal said: “When we are taught about money it’s so focused on what we should do with it, and with the support of Bonnier Books UK, I wanted to write a book that addresses the all-too-common risk of emotions skewing and sabotaging our actions and behaviours around money. As a financial psychotherapist, I help people identify what unconscious thoughts and feelings could be getting in the way of having the relationship with money they want. I hope Money on your Mind will change the way people think about money and help those who read it improve their financial wellbeing.”

Altaf added: “When I first came across an interview with Vicky, I was intrigued by her job and after speaking to her, I knew she needed to write a book immediately. As the UK’s first financial psychotherapist, she has helped so many people unpack what might be driving their financial habits. Money on Your Mind is a vital read – Vicky’s expert knowledge shines through as she guides and equips the reader with a new lens through which to explore their relationship with money."
