Telehealth, or Tele-Mental-Health, is no longer the way of the future; it is the way of the present. Practices that may fall under the umbrella of telehealth include conducting therapy via teleconferencing (such as Skype), Virtual Reality type therapy (i.e., Second Life), emailing with clients, conducting therapy exclusively via the phone and much more. In the rapidly and excitingly evolving field of Telehealth there seem to be more questions than answers. Therapy via Skype is easy and convenient, however is it HIPAA-compliant? Can I treat a client via telehealth who just went to college in another state, where I am not licensed?
