摘要
In this descriptive study, the authors reviewed the licensing boards for marriage and family therapists, professional counselors, psychologists, and social workers to determine the legal and ethical practice of online psychotherapy and counseling in the United States. Analyses revealed no differences between professions on whether they permitted online counseling and psychotherapy at the state level. Finally, a number of states directly addressed online clinical practice, many did not address this practice, and no state boards prohibited online counseling and psychotherapy.
