I have a sliding scale payment at a community clinic, so I pay very little ($5 a session, but no opportunity for anything outside of that hour a week, and I see a student). Even that is a lot though. It's not a lot of my income, but it's a good 50 percent of what's left after bills and gas for the car each month... the rest of that extra cash has gone to the art journal workshop I attend once a month for the past 3 months... I have paid more for therapy in the past when I had insurance copays, but i also ran up a hefty bill with a former t that I am still paying off 2 years later (totally worth it at the time, and even now). I don't know what I'd do if I had to pay more right now, probably not go to therapy.
