2017 SUMMER INSTITUTE
THE FEE
Instructor: Barbara Stimmel, Ph.D.
The fee is a vexing and constant reality. In every treatment process: Regardless of one’s theoretical and clinical orientation,
regardless of the level of sophistication and experience of the therapist, regardless of the amount, regardless of the financial reality of the patient, and always with the therapist’s attitudes toward earning money for helping others- the fee is a critical and often less appreciated aspect of the treatment relationship. This relationship will be discussed and explored clinically in this workshop. Participants are invited to bring in vignettes and questions that will form the basis of our conversation. Participants will: have a greater appreciation of a centerpiece of the clinical work, have a greater understanding of how to think about the fee, be able to develop a more comprehensive and thoughtful approach to setting the fee – which is in the best interest of both patient and therapist.
