Expanding Care with Teletherapy

Alma: Expanding Care with Teletherapy

Alma, a digital health company, surveyed over 200 therapists and found that nearly 9 in 10 of its therapists want to be able to provide care across the country if their license enabled them to provide care nationwide. The survey also found 67 percent of therapists have already pursued or are considering pursuing licenses in one or more additional states. Of these therapists, about half wanted to maintain relationships with current clients that moved or have moved across state lines. In the last year, 70 percent of therapists had to stop working with a client because they moved, even if they were solely seeing the client virtually.
