Questions & Answers

Who do we see in Illinois?

We see children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across Illinois — from Chicago to Urbana-Champaign and every community in between. Because our psychologists practice under PSYPACT® authority, you can meet us by secure video anywhere in the state, including rural areas far from the nearest provider.

Do you work with Illinois college students?

Yes — academic communities are a specialty. We support students and faculty at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and public campuses statewide, as well as private institutions like University of Chicago. We have particular experience with the intense, close-knit culture of private liberal arts colleges such as Wheaton College, Knox College, Lake Forest College and more — and because telehealth follows you, your care continues through breaks, study abroad, and transfers within PSYPACT® states.

How does online therapy work in Illinois?

PSYPACT® is an interstate compact that authorizes our licensed psychologists to practice telepsychology into Illinois, in coordination with the standards of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation — Clinical Psychology. Sessions take place over a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform — the same evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) we deliver online, from wherever you are.

Is online therapy legal in Illinois?

Our psychologists are authorized to deliver telepsychology in Illinois under the PSYPACT® interstate compact, coordinated with the standards of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation — Clinical Psychology. To receive care, you must be physically present in Illinois at the time of each scheduled session.

What about insurance and payment for telehealth in Illinois?

We are out-of-network with most insurance companies, but as a courtesy we can submit claims directly to your insurer if your plan includes out-of-network benefits, and we accept HSA, FSA, and HRA cards. If you have questions about coverage for telehealth sessions delivered into Illinois, call us at (844) 774-7997 and we will help you understand your options before you book.

I live in a rural part of Illinois — can I still see a therapist?

Yes. Because every session takes place over secure video, your physical location in Illinois does not limit your access to care — whether you are in Chicago, Bloomington-Normal, or a small town hours from the nearest in-person provider, you can meet with our licensed clinicians from your home, dorm, or private office.
