A psych PhD I know once said of their fellow grad students: "most of them could have saved a lot of time and money if they'd just gone to therapy instead."

You know what? I've been in therapy for 20+ years of varying degree, and if I estimate out of pocket cost at $50/2 weeks that's about $26,000. 1 hour a session is 520 hours.

A Ph.D. would cost significantly more time than that and the program cost itself is hard to determine.

In a nut shell - yep.
