Most psychologists usually make about twenty to thirty bucks per patient. Sometimes "other" favors are traded for the psychologist's services. At least this is how business is operated at my psychologist.

It depends how much you make! College Professors at sleepy little unaccredited religous colleges - including psychologists - are often paid less than 20k a year. But they also make money doing consulting work and writing text-books and software. A doctorate level Clinical Psych who gets $500.00 per evaluation, and does 20 such evaluations a week (like for the court, industry, etc...) are making about 500,000 a year before expenses and overhead. Average Clinical Psycholost? Probably 100 - 150k annually. Forensic types, sports psychologists, and consumer psychologists probably make a lot more. But they all can do consulting and publishing. All the Psychologists I know in this town seem to live comfortable lives with nice homes. I know this because I drive by their house when my parents sign me up with a new one.
