How much will a course of psychoanalysis cost?
The IPA does not set fee levels and psychoanalysts’ fees vary greatly. For those who cannot afford private fees, treatment is available through some institutes at lower cost. Psychoanalysts in training — physicians, psychologists, or social workers who are already experienced therapists — will often adjust their fees to the financial needs of the patient. In addition, because of their commitment to analysis and to community service, many graduate analysts also make an effort to treat patients at reduced rates. top Thanks to the American Psychoanalytic Association (http://www.apsa.org/) for the use of “Facts about APsaA and Psychoanalysis” as a model for the FAQs. ‘How did the IPA begin?’ is adapted from an article by William H. Gillespie.
