ONLINE THERAPY BY STATE
Online Therapy for Virginia Residents
Virginia patients may use online therapy to access psychotherapy with a psychologist when telepsychology is legally available and clinically appropriate.
How online therapy works
Appointments are held by secure video. Patients should be in a private location, use a reliable internet connection, and confirm where they are physically located when needed.
Therapy services available
Therapy may address anxiety, depression, ADHD-related coping, emotional regulation, stress, trauma-related concerns, relationships, and life transitions. Psychological evaluations are separate services and may require a different process.
PSYPACT and telepsychology
Because many patients move between work, school, and home settings, location must be confirmed so care follows applicable rules. PSYPACT participation and authorization requirements can change, so availability is confirmed before services begin and as needed during care.
What to expect from your first appointment
The first appointment focuses on fit, current concerns, history, goals, privacy needs, and whether online therapy is an appropriate level of care.
