Understanding PSYPACT: Interstate Practice of Telepsychology

The Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT) is an interstate compact that allows licensed psychologists to practice telepsychology across state lines. This authorization enables psychologists who hold PSYPACT Authority for Interjurisdictional Practice of Telepsychology (APIT) credentials to provide services to clients in participating states without obtaining individual licenses in each state.

What This Means for You:

  • Legal Authorization: Our psychologists are legally authorized to provide telepsychology services in all PSYPACT member states

  • Professional Standards: All services meet the licensing requirements and professional standards of your state

  • Convenience: You can access expert psychological services regardless of your location within our service area

  • Quality Assurance: PSYPACT requires psychologists to maintain active licenses and meet continuing education requirements

How Telehealth Psychological Evaluations Work

Our telehealth evaluations are conducted via HIPAA-compliant video conferencing platforms and maintain the same professional rigor as traditional in-person assessments. The evaluation process includes:

  1. Initial Consultation: Review of your case and evaluation needs

  2. Clinical Interviews: Comprehensive interviews conducted via secure video conferencing

  3. Psychological Testing: Validated assessment instruments administered remotely

  4. Records Review: Analysis of relevant medical, legal, and educational documentation

  5. Collateral Interviews: Interviews with relevant parties as appropriate to your case

  6. Comprehensive Report: Detailed written report meeting legal and professional standards

All evaluations are supervised by Dr. Lisa Long, a licensed forensic psychologist with over 10 years of specialized experience in immigration, forensic, and clinical psychological assessments.
