I'm kind of confused by her two fee charges. Therapy is therapy. Someone who has more educational/advanced degrees is perfectly within her right to charge a higher fee than someone with a less advanced degree. But how does she determine what she provides and doesn't provide for the two different fee levels? This sounds really confusing to me. In my area, psychiatrists charge more than a PhD psychologist and the PhD person often charges more than the master level people (LCSW, mental health counselors etc). But I've never heard of anyone charging more for different levels of service with their degrees based on what they provide. If she's talking about charging more for assessment/testing/court report writing etc. I'd get her different fee levels. But if you ask for counseling services as opposed to psychological services, what's the difference . .. with one she does indepth psychological interpretations and analysis and with the other she just supports and makes suggestions???? Sounds very weird to me. I'd suggest asking her specifically what the difference is.
Thanks for this!
