It sounds as though a good therapist would be a great help. Do they really charge $300.00 in your area? I think that is very, very high. The only ones who charge that much here are the psychopharmacologists, and they only charge that much for an initial consultation for medication. I live in a large city, and the rates per session range from about $140 to $185 for psychotherapy. I personally go to a psychoanalyst who charges $170. I am biased towards psychoanalysis, and I know most people are biased sort of away from it. For people who are interested, though, you can get treatment from a psychoanalyst-in-training for as little as $10.00 per session if you live near a psychoanalytic training institute. The people who are in training already have doctorates in one of the mental health fields. They are young and inexperienced, but they do have experienced psychoanalysts as supervisors training them and watching their work very carefully.
