i dont see anyone getting political, but silly me for reading your first post where you said you "must" ask your T on friday (and not second guessing you) and responding with a serious answer.

i know, right?
i remember when i first started with pdoc he would charge me $180, which was exactly what i would earn over the week (so i made sure to space my sessions out). finally he cottoned on and has been bulk billing me ever since, god bless.
i think most Ts in australia don't actually charge the full $206 (most go around $160?) but there are some therapists who charge even more. therapy here is for the rich, as it seems to be everywhere. but we do get 12 subsidised sessions by medicare, so that helps a lot for people who don't have chronic conditions.
