Attitudes of psychiatric residents toward payment of psychotherapy fees. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • A preliminary exploration of psychiatric residents' thinking on the subject of psychotherapy fees revealed a pattern of inconsistencies in attitudes and a divergence between attitudes and practice. The author discusses these findings in the light of theoretical considerations and the effect of such attitudes on clinic administration and patient treatment. He emphasizes education about and discussion of fees as important aspects of residency training.
