Paying a skilled therapist with a master's degree $15 an hour is robbery. And they're probably taking folks on as contractors, which means no insurance. That $30 - $50 for a session is a race to the bottom.

How is the market failing to set the appropriate price? A therapist should be able to charge whatever they want, up to the point they can't find anyone willing to pay it.

Maybe the university which gave them the master's degree was the one committing robbery here.
