Psychotherapist political contributions from California

Psychotherapist and California as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation PSYCHOTHERAPIST and donor state CA produce $4,042,593, 63,048 contributions, and 622 donors. The occupation hub is $13,834,530, 179,041 contributions, and 2,239 donors. California’s dollar share is about 29.2%; contribution share about 35.2% (63,048 of 179,041); donor share about 27.8% (622 of 2,239). Six hundred twenty-two California donors are about 27.8% of 2,239 national donors; 63,048 contributions are about 35.2% of 179,041 national rows; dollars are about 29.2% of $13,834,530.

PSYCHOLOGIST, THERAPIST, and LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Psychotherapist total. Do not stack PSYCHOTHERAPIST with PSYCHOLOGIST or THERAPIST into a single California professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

622 California donors produced 63,048 contributions, about 101.4 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 80.0 rows per donor nationally (179,041 contributions from 2,239 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this California cell is about $64, against about $77 nationwide. California’s 63,048 rows from 622 people is a high-repeat slice of a 179,041-row occupation.

PSYCHOTHERAPIST as a clinical-title string

PSYCHOTHERAPIST is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a license, a modality, or a practice address. The $13,834,530 national total is PSYCHOTHERAPIST only. 2,239 donors produced 179,041 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 179,041 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to California (CA). Two thousand two hundred thirty-nine national donors make PSYCHOTHERAPIST a high-frequency occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state CA.

California on the state side

622 California donors produced 63,048 contributions totaling $4,042,593. Donor state CA is the address on the record, not proof of a California license, and not a limit to California candidates. CA is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a California license, and not a map of which campaigns received the $4,042,593.

The California campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CA. This join is only PSYCHOTHERAPIST. The Psychotherapist occupation hub without California still holds about 70.8% of the $13,834,530. California’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to CA. PSYCHOTHERAPIST is only this filter.

What the Psychotherapist join is not

This page does not count licensed clinicians, merge Psychologist dollars, or claim that Psychotherapist-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. PSYCHOTHERAPIST is not PSYCHOLOGIST even when filers meant the same clinic.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. PSYCHOTHERAPIST is not a licensing-board extract. Donor state CA is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. License numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Psychotherapist filter

Subtract the California dollars on this page from the national PSYCHOTHERAPIST occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded PSYCHOTHERAPIST in every other state combined. That remainder ($9,791,937) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 622 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 63,048 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $4,042,593 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the California dollars, or only the PSYCHOTHERAPIST national total, drops a key. Six hundred twenty-two donors producing 63,048 contributions totaling $4,042,593 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.

Related tables

Psychotherapist donations holds the $13,834,530 national occupation total. California campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. PSYCHOLOGIST is a different occupation hub if that string exists.
