Finances.

This year-long program offers a sliding scale based on your relative financial standing. In an effort to reflect disparity in economic condition and access to wealth, the following payment system is designed for those with more wealth to help cover the costs of those with less access to wealth and resources. We trust your discernment of your current financial situation and how you fit into the global economic context.

As you decide what amount to pay, please consider your present-day financial situation governed by income, but also the following factors: historical discrimination faced by your peoples; your access to income and financial wealth, both current and anticipated (retirement, savings, investments, expectation of an inheritance; how easily could you earn more income compared to other people in your community, country, and world); people counting on your financial livelihood including dependents and community members; the socio-economic conditions of your locale (relative to other places in your country and in the world); your relationship to food & resource scarcity.

This payment structure is inspired and informed by the justice-oriented models put forth by Worts & Cunning Apothecary, Dr. Bayo Akomolafe, and Corporeal Writing.

For participants interested in individual clinical consultation, sessions are available monthly for $175/month or bimonthly for $300/month.

Please note:

Therapists do not need to be fully licensed to participate, however, the KTC Embodied Private Practice Cohort is a consulting relationship and not clinical supervision. Services do not count towards licensure and unlicensed therapists will need to have a clinical supervisor in the state in which they are practicing.

You can contact KTC with questions about the Embodied Private Practice Cohort via the contact page - please select EPPC from the dropdown menu. Applications will be read on a rolling basis with a focus on maintaining an intimate, generative environment.
