Regarding the issue of psychological counseling fees, many people cannot understand and support it well. When they see the "charge", they give up psychological counseling and would rather be crushed in their own spiritual prison and continue to endure the pain.

We buy clothes, eat, buy houses and cars, which will bring a sense of satisfaction, security and happiness. Psychological consultation is spiritual consumption. If consultation can bring us a good mentality, a healthy body, mind and soul, and more satisfaction, security, and happiness, then the value it brings us is far more than a beautiful piece of clothing, an expensive bed or even a luxurious RV .

Many people already have beautiful and high-end clothes, spacious houses, luxury cars and even villas, but they still can't get happy, still wandering in painful entanglement, still tortured by relationships, greed, and illness.

With the help of psychological counseling, we can have a new understanding of ourselves, and most of our confusion can also be found. We are fortunate to meet a good psychological counselor and can "live a brand new self"!

▲Consultation room real scene

One time without paying psychological counseling. It is unlikely that the person seeking help will pay attention to the assistance of the psychological counselor, and may not really want to make efforts to change his current psychological condition. Freud believes that psychological counseling (treatment) that is not charged is of no benefit to the client's healing.

Therefore, the charge for psychological counseling is through the appropriate financial contribution of the helper, so that he or she values ​​and cherishes the consultation process. It is a manifestation of respecting himself and respecting the hard work of the consultant.

The client's financial efforts are necessary to attach importance to the inspiration brought by the exchanges between the two parties, make themselves continuously progress, and ultimately achieve satisfactory results.

01 Consultation fee itself has certain psychological treatment and adverse personality correction effects

The psychological counseling process requires the cooperation of both parties and work together.

In free psychological counseling, Clients often lack the motivation to explore and change themselves, always hopes to wait for the counselor to solve their problems.

The concept of waiting for help from others but inaction, not paying but wanting to gain is itself a pathological concept, which is not conducive to the recovery of visitors;

This charges become a tool to measure whether a client is willing to change his intention. Some consultants charge very expensive individual consultation fees. The strong willingness to change visitors is itself a good motivation - is towards personality integration and health; at the same time, the charging service is also a behavioral norm for the client's medical treatment behavior.

consults according to the content agreed with the consultant within the agreed time, which itself has a positive effect on enhancing the consultant's self-awareness, responsibility, self-control ability, etc.

021 charges, which is also a necessary means to keep the consultant and the client clear of his identity

1 charges, which means that the responsibilities and obligations of the consultant are clarified, and the rights and responsibilities of the client are clarified.

psychological counseling is often more casual, and the relationship between the responsibilities and obligations of the counselor and the client seems ambiguous, or becomes a rights relationship or an unnecessary sense of guilt, which affects the counseling relationship.

In order to establish a standardized and good consulting relationship, the consultant charges a certain consultation fee to form a service contract relationship with the client .

The client demonstrates sincerity and trust through payment. In order to save time, he will actively cooperate with medical treatment on time, while the consultant assumes obligations and responsibilities; both parties can devote themselves wholeheartedly to ensure the effectiveness of the consultation.

03 Psychological counselor is a professional

Psychological counseling is the process of a counselor helping clients solve psychological problems. The labor and time paid by the psychological counselor should be reasonably rewarded, which is a normal professional labor income.

Only when the psychological counselor's actual labor receives corresponding returns can the psychological counselor devote himself to the psychological counseling career without survival pressure.

In order to continuously improve your professional level, maintain a good consultation and treatment status, and better serve your visitors, you must participate in business learning and exchanges throughout your life, and receive supervision from senior colleagues (foreign psychoanalytical teachers often have to have a continuous self-experience for 7 or 8 years, at least one hour a week) , and these learning processes are also paid, and they are expensive.

Therefore, psychological counseling and treatment are an expensive profession. Without charging appropriate fees, it is impossible to maintain the normal and healthy development of psychological counseling and treatment.

Therefore, professional psychological counseling services must be charged. Free psychological counseling may gain a good reputation of being enthusiastic and helpful, but in fact it often loses arbitrary and deviates from the norm. Non-charge psychological counseling is often more casual and unprofessional.

The negative impact is that because there is no charge during consultation, the client often treats the consultant as the object of venting bad emotions and self-expression, and talks endlessly but goes off the topic, and comes whenever he wants, and leaves when he wants, and the problem remains the same. As for the consultant, because there is no charge, it is difficult for him to maintain a sense of responsibility and enthusiasm for helping others. He may even feel that his work has been dispensable with others' emotional trash can, and he suffers great setbacks.

Practice has proved that this so-called obligatory consultation is difficult to truly help visitors. Therefore, professional psychological counseling should be mainly paid services, and the fees will not be too low.

The cost of a psychological counseling or treatment is not more expensive than some people who go to a restaurant for a meal.

A course of psychological counseling costs will not be more expensive than a month's medical expenses for any chronic internal medicine disease.

Psychological counseling and treatment must have a fee equivalent to its value, because this is a valuable and meaningful work in itself. Psychological counselors and therapists pay extremely intense mental labor, which will also make the visitors or the entire society pay attention to it and take it seriously.

It will bring people a brand new inner feelings and inner world, and will even affect people's life.

Professional psychological counseling, the fees are often based on one course of treatment. Because the formation of psychological disorders in is often the result of accumulation over the years, disease comes like a mountain, and goes like a thread to draw. The removal of psychological disorders cannot be effective in one or two consultations. To see the effect of consultation, at least two courses of psychological treatment is often required.

The founder of professional psychoanalytic psychotherapy Freud often treats psychological disorders for one, two years or even longer. Most people with psychological problems always hope to have immediate methods or "magic medicine". can solve all problems at once, which is impossible and unrealistic. The current popular short-term psychotherapy is about 1 to 2 months, once or twice a week.
