Mental Health Services Across State Lines
Briefly

Telemental health services have surged since COVID-19, allowing clients to work with mental health professionals (MHPs) across state lines. It's crucial for clients to ensure MHPs are licensed in the states they practice, especially as interstate compacts facilitate multi-state practice. While certain services like coaching may not need licensure, many do, particularly for insurance reimbursement. Thus, clients should confirm the necessary certifications and consider technology disruptions to optimize their telehealth experiences.
Ensure your mental health provider is licensed or authorized to practice in the state where you are located.
Plan ahead for possible tech interruptions and emergencies during telehealth sessions.
