Online therapy and therapist licenses in Minnesota

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

Four license types come up on profiles in Minnesota: psychologist, LPC, LCSW and LMFT. Any of them can help with anxiety, depression or stress; for couples or family work an LMFT is trained for exactly that, and for testing or assessment a psychologist.

Commuting to Iowa, North Dakota, or South Dakota? A session taken from work there counts as a session in that state, so ask whether your therapist's license reaches it.
