Hi everyone, I’ll soon be finishing my Master’s degree here in Zurich in Psychology, and before I start my further education, I’m currently trying to research the salary differences between therapists working as employees in clinics or places like WePractice, compared to working self employed. I found out that self employed therapists receive around CHF 154.80 per hour reimbursed by health insurance. Based on that, you can roughly estimate what you could earn as a self employed therapist. Now I’m also considering becoming employed, but I’ve honestly found almost no information about salaries for employed therapists. On Salarium, I found the following figures. Do those numbers seem realistic for an employed therapist, or are they more typical for a self employed therapist? 25% earn less than CHF 6,736 Median salary: CHF 7,499 25% earn more than CHF 8,353 with the following salary profile: • 33 years old • 0 years of experience • 33.6 hours per week Where can I find more information about salaries for therapists in employed positions? And if any of you are therapists yourselves, or know someone who is, roughly how much do you/they earn and what kind of institution do you/they work in? submitted by /u/Vas1r
