My T charges whether I come or not. no matter how far in advance I know. It's a fairly common practice for NY Therapists, although not universal. I think it depends a lot on their attitudes toward money and time, etc-- plus maybe how busy they are (and therefore whether they would theoretically have sacrificed income if they don't fill the time).
I wouldn't hold it against a T, because so many Ts do it that it doesn't seem like bad behavior, per se. It's like vacations-- enough NY analysts take super-long vacations that it's hard to hold it against one who does.
