i wonder how long have you been going to this therapist? i know i almost had to quit therapy too because of financial reasons, but i told me T that i would have to quit therapy because of that and he told me to talk to the secretary, and it old him that she didn't seem to be too concerned (she seemed kind of mean when i mentioned the price was a bit high before), so he talked ot her for me!!! btu i admit, i may be in a better situation because i go to the sliding scale Grad students in psychology at a local university, so i am lucky in that aspect i suppose. but i know my T said that i shouldn't have to quit therapy because of financial reasons. if your current T doesn't see what financial strain you are under (which in turn creates more stress and even MORE need for therapy, IMO) then is there any practice/office in your area that has a sliding scale? you could check that out. i know not all areas have those though. the place where i was going to ahve to move, i was checking into therapists in that area, and i didn't find any with a sliding scale, but i hope that you do find someone who can take you on that basis.
good luck!!!!*inimitable
