Great Article Joye. I look forward to the rest of the series.

Do you have information available on why some jurisdictions, California as an example, developed laws that restricted their residence to only receive therapy services from that state's licensed practitioners? Was it from an era when there was little reason to have considered distant service options (i.e. technology assisted services)? What is best for the client (i.e. continuity of services) if they moved to a restricted state?

Thanks for tackling this subject.

Another valuable resource for people interested in adding online therapy to their private practice is the Online Therapy Institute. http://www.onlinetherapyinstitute.com founded by two former presidents of the International Society for Mental Health Online.
