PSYPACT (Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact), an interstate agreement among participating states and US territories, allows licensed psychologists with PSYPACT authorization to deliver telepsychology services across state lines without needing a separate license in each state.
Modern living often requires relocation across state borders, which previously hindered continuity of care. PSYPACT was developed to address this. This innovative compact expands access to care by reducing regulatory barriers while preserving ethical standards and public safety. Furthermore, it makes consistent therapy more accessible for those who frequently travel or relocate.
Currently, 43 states and territories are included in PSYPACT, with more in the process of joining. The official PSYPACT interactive map provides clear information about participating states and territories.
A PSYPACT-authorized psychologist can continue to provide care so long as you are in any of the participating states or territories.
Therapy can continue without interruption if both you and your psychologist are currently in PSYPACT states or territories.
The official PSYPACT lookup tool provides clear information on whether your psychologist is properly authorized.
All PSYPACT sessions are held via secure telehealth platforms. Furthermore, HIPAA compliance is fully maintained, ensuring all patient information is securely stored and handled.
