We are just back from the 2016 Psychotherapy Networker Symposium in DC and it

was a blast. We talked with hundreds of therapists who are interested in doing

online counseling – but they have A LOT of concerns and questions. And they

should! There is much to consider. So I thought we should bring in a legal expert to

answer some of the questions that I got over and over again at the Symposium. So

why not get an attorney who is ALSO a counselor?! I found him: his name is Eric

Strom and he is a former Navy man who is in active private practice now and also an

attorney – providing “Legal Services to Mental Health Professionals”. Today – we

answer all the questions that are holding us back – online counseling across state

lines and in another state where the therapist is not licensed. Counseling

internationally. How do you check what each state says? HIPAA and how it applies

to skype, facetime, etc – and what changes may actually be coming to those

platforms. Ethics. Law. Clinical concerns – we talked about it all. This may be one

of the most valuable podcasts we have ever done and goes and in hand with our

great interview with Roy Huggins. And – you get to learn about his new project –

Counsel Chat. Hope you enjoy!
