Bartering in Therapy: Part D of Boundaries Series

In this fourth segment of our Boundaries in Psychotherapy Series, Dr. Zur outlines issues relating to bartering in therapy. Some clients are too poor to afford monetary payment, and a bartering arrangement may work very well for them. On the other end of the spectrum, a very rich client may give no value to money - so perhaps their contributing community service as payment for therapy is more appropriate. Bartering comes with its own set of interesting issues, and Dr. Zur delves into them here.
