Is psychoanalysis expensive?
Most psychoanalysts have a sliding fee scale, or set aside part of their time for patients who can only afford a lower fee. Many analysts also have a network of colleagues who can help find the right analyst for someone in financial need. For nearly 100 years this commitment to patient needs has made psychoanalytic therapy available and affordable. As Freud once remarked, “nothing is as expensive as illness, or ignorance”.
