I am lucky in that my insurance does cover some of my visit. They cover 75% of their "Usual Customary Rate." Of course their UCR is only $78 which is considerably lower than what my therapist actually charges (he charges $135 an hour), so I pay the difference (roughly $77 a visit). Still I'm glad that they help at all since he's not a network provider and I suppose they could refuse to cover him at all. I'd go to him regardless though as he's been incredibly helpful to me. And I think I value it more because I'm really invested in it.

For group therapy my therapist charges $65 an hour. I'm thinking that's about average in the area where I live (big city).

Interesting thread!
