Who can see you online in Mississippi
Telehealth rules are tied to your location during the session. If you're in Mississippi, the therapist has to hold a Mississippi license, or practice there under an interstate compact such as PSYPACT for psychologists.
Four license types come up on profiles in Mississippi: 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.
People near the edge of Mississippi often look at therapists in Alabama, Arkansas, or Louisiana too. That works for in-person visits across the border, but for video sessions from home the therapist still needs a Mississippi license.

Yes, as long as the therapist is licensed in Mississippi; then where they're based doesn't matter. About 14% of the therapists listed in Mississippi offer online sessions, against 6% nationwide, usually by video. For common concerns such as anxiety and depression, video generally works about as well as meeting in person.
