from what you wrote prreviously, i got the distinct impression you were waisting your money anyway. perhaps this isn't such a bad thing. there are plenty of forms of therapy that are free, if you look for them, such as charity work, etc, etc.

Maybe you can work out going just half as often and try to supplement the meetings with reading certain books that they recommend. I know, ideally, you want to go every week...but once every two weeks is probably better than nothing. Do you have anything like we have in the U.S. in terms of "flex credits"? Essentially, those credits are paid by a company and are untaxed. Their use is for medical-related expenses - and if you don't use them, you lose them. My therapy sessions aren't covered under my insurance (well, they may be...but not with where I'm going). I pay out of pocket for the sessions, then every so often my goal is to submit giant claims to have it paid by the flex credits, instead. If you have anything like that where you live, it may be a useful alternative.
I have never heard of anything like this, but I will look into it. Thanks.
