Licensed Therapist

Uh huh. And how does that make you feel?

Tuition: $6,400 or 24 easy payments of $289.

A 16-week clinical program preparing cats for private-practice talk therapy. Students develop the core therapist skills: nodding, asking 'and why do you think that is,' and charging $280 per session.

Licensure is granted by Whiskerworks, which is sufficient for any client who doesn't look too closely.

What You'll Learn

  • Maintain eye contact for 50 minutes without blinking
  • Repeat what the client just said, but slower
  • Offer interpretations that are both accurate and useless
  • Bill insurance under CPT code 90834 with a straight face
  • End a session precisely 3 minutes early every time
  • Decline to become their friend

Program Syllabus

Week 1
The Consulting Room

One chair. One stool. One plant. One clock the client cannot see.

Week 2
Active Listening

The upright-ear position. The slow blink. The pause.

Week 3
Reflective Statements

'So what I'm hearing is...' — for anything, forever.

Week 4
Modalities

CBT, DBT, ACT, and 'I Just Purr At Them' (JIPAT).

Week 5
Note-Taking

SOAP notes. Also physical SOAP, which we sell to you separately.

Week 6
Transference

The client wants to pet you. You allow it, briefly.

Week 7
Insurance Billing

The hardest part of the job.

Week 8
Capstone: One Full Session

Fifty minutes. Three silences. One uneaten tissue.
