Online therapy and therapist licenses in Colorado

What decides who can see you online is the license. A therapist licensed in Colorado can work with you by video wherever you are in the state; one licensed only elsewhere generally can't, however close their office is.

The license type shapes what a therapist focuses on. Psychologists can run formal assessments, LMFTs are trained for relationships, and LPCs and LCSWs cover most everyday concerns. If you're thinking about medication, a psychiatrist or your doctor is the one to ask.

People near the edge of Colorado often look at therapists in Arizona, Kansas, or Nebraska too. That works for in-person visits across the border, but for video sessions from home the therapist still needs a Colorado license.
