Psychotherapist occupation money in the 2012 FEC cycle

$613,942 in itemized individual contributions is the FEC.gov join between the occupation PSYCHOTHERAPIST and the 2012 presidential election cycle. That cell covers 1,055 receipts from 399 donors. The occupation’s all-cycle total is $13.8 million ($13,834,530), so 2012 is 4.4% of the labeled roll. Psychologist and counselor are neighboring strings with their own occupation-cycle cells. This page is the occupation-and-cycle match, not a state therapy-license roster, an APA membership roll, or a clinic payroll.

Key figures

  • Psychotherapist × 2012: $613,942.
  • 1,055 receipts from 399 donors.
  • 4.4% of the $13,834,530 PSYCHOTHERAPIST total.
  • Filer-entered occupation; mental-health association PAC filings are a different table.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by occupation and cycle.

Psychotherapist as occupation, 2012 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation PSYCHOTHERAPIST and election cycle 2012. Matching rows sum to $613,942, 1,055 contributions, and 399 donors. Drop either key and the number changes. Therapist, psychologist, counselor, and clinical social worker are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into a state therapy-license roster, an APA membership roll, or a clinic payroll. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet except as the remainder on the occupation hub.

Parent hubs: Psychotherapist donations at /occupations/psychotherapist/ and the 2012 election cycle at /election-cycles/2012/. All occupations at /occupations/ lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties at /ties/ keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $613,942 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Psychotherapist in 2012 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $613,942. License class, modality, and private versus agency practice is unpublished for Psychotherapist in 2012. The occupation page and the 2012 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees. Nearly four hundred donor keys and more than a thousand lines is a broad talk-therapy title cell inside a large all-cycle roll.

PSYCHOTHERAPIST, not psychologist or counselor

$13.8 million ($13,834,530) belongs to the exact string PSYCHOTHERAPIST across harvested cycles. It is not a state therapy-license roster, an APA membership roll, or a clinic payroll. People who wrote nearby wording — therapist, psychologist, counselor, and clinical social worker — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2012 slice is 4.4% of that title bucket ($613,942 of $13,834,530). Share of PSYCHOTHERAPIST is not share of all 2012 receipts. The remainder, $13,220,588, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $613,942. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $13,834,530. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Psychotherapist donations and the live 2012 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $613,942.

399 psychotherapist donors and 1,055 receipts in 2012

399 donors and 1,055 receipts — about 2.6 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $582; mean per donor about $1,539. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. Nearly four hundred donor keys and more than a thousand lines is a broad talk-therapy title cell inside a large all-cycle roll. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 1,055 is a line count, not 399 one-time gifts. License class, modality, and private versus agency practice is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by PSYCHOTHERAPIST. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $613,942. The occupation’s all-cycle book is much larger than this 2012 chapter. Do not treat a single-digit share as a decline story.

Talk-therapy title versus association PACs

Cite $613,942 as Psychotherapist in 2012. Cite $13,834,530 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add mental-health association PAC filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $613,942 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 4.4%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode PSYCHOTHERAPIST into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a presidential-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset. USAspending.gov awards are a different ledger. This page does not claim that 2012 donations funded contracts or grants.

How to cite Psychotherapist money in 2012

A clean footnote names occupation PSYCHOTHERAPIST, election cycle 2012, $613,942 in itemized individual contributions, 1,055 receipts, and 399 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $582 per line and $1,539 per donor in the cell. If the live Psychotherapist donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 1,055 as unique workers in the trade named by PSYCHOTHERAPIST.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Psychotherapist donations rolls every cycle into one PSYCHOTHERAPIST running total. The 2012 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2012 total. Only the Psychotherapist × 2012 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 1,055 receipts and $613,942. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.

Occupation hub, 2012 hub, and sibling therapy keys

The occupation hub still holds $13,220,588 outside 2012. Most of the $13,834,530 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. The occupation’s all-cycle book is much larger than this 2012 chapter. Do not treat a single-digit share as a decline story. Gifts per donor in 2012 average about 2.6. That ratio is 1,055 divided by 399, not a measure of turnout. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
