$100 per session maybe, go once a quarter

That's around the rate in my town anyway.

They're colluding to inflate the price.

Yeah it's Canada, therapy is 100$/h and prostitutes are $200/h. Do you live in some hellhole where therapy is $400 and prostitutes are $10?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I don't think work volume and conditions are comparable.

I know I want therapy to be affordable and prostitutes that are not living on the cusp of death

Get a cat.

Vent to the cat.

Therapists are professionally supposed to keep themselves distanced from the emotional state of the subject, but that comes naturally for cats because they couldn't care less about your feelings.

On the other hand, if you want some empathysing with what you're feeling, get a dog (ideally mid-sized or larger) instead.
