Oh man, exactly! The public insurance (here it’s oregon health plan) The amount of bullshit you have to go through for 1/3 of the reimbursement you’d get from a private insurance or a cash pay makes it so there are less and less providers who are willing to jump through the hoops. I once got a group note kicked back from insurance because “no group starts exactly on time”. The group was at 5:00, person was there before hand… Group of 12 people. Another time I marked all as attending at 5:01, but nope. That got all kicked back because there was “no way everyone showed up at the same time”. So I tried explaining to my supervisor how absurd it was because I can only bill for the group time 5-6 pm, so would every client have to show up late, and not all leave at 6:00 pm as well?

So in 2021 I said fuck it, I need a year off.
I clenched my jaw so hard reading that asinine situation that I felt my ears pop. Just unreal.
Maybe “peak therapy” means they’ve created peak conditions for everyone to need therapy. That would make sense.
Therapists needing therapy from trying to provide therapy to others. The circle of therapy🎵🎵
