T gave me a reduced fee a couple of years ago when I had some big insurance confusion, and he told me at the time that I was the only client he had ever done that for. It was super super super uncomfortable for me. We talked about it a lot, and he told me what he needed (for me to come at certain times that aren't busy) and I told him what I needed (to pay less $) and I guess in the end it felt like a good compromise. But then my insurance came through after all, so I ended up not really needing the reduced fee.
In january, because of a change in my insurance, therapy is going to become unaffordable for me. I definitely won't be able to afford more than once a week, if that. The timing is horrible, and part of me is hoping he will offer a reduced fee...and part of me is terrified that he will.
Therapy is important and the money part of it can be really tricky. Let your T do this for you. It's a good thing and you are worth it.
