In the US, where I am. insurers have been paying less and less over the last 25 years. Psychotherapy and psychoanalysis are treated as if they are the same in terms of payment. Each private insurer is slightly different in what they reimburse; mine, Blue Cross, pays for one session a week for a maximum of 50 sessions a year. Other plans might pay more; many pay less. Even though it's difficult, I find I benefit so much from going frequently that I've been able to work it out financially so far. I feel that what has helped is not insight, but rather the experiences of intimacy, and rupture and repair happening over and over. They seem to work beneath the surface, don't you think?
Thanks for the info on finding a skype therapist!
