Okay, let’s tackle this. So Ralph Rast is a licensed therapist with 42 years of experience, which is extremely high. His skills and experience are in high demand, especially in California. As a psychotherapist, he can charge higher rates than life coaches, but lower than medical professionals. Considering his extensive experience and the fact that he owns his own practice, I would estimate his hourly rate to be around $150. This is higher than average for a life coach but lower than what a medical doctor or a licensed psychologist would charge. Some therapists with similar experience can charge $200-$300 per hour, but Ralph's background in psychotherapy and his experience as a life coach bring him to the $150 range.
