014 - Eric Strom, Licensed Counselor and Attorney - Strom Consulting
Manage episode 124520672 series 112145
We are just back from the 2016 Psychotherapy Networker Symposium in DC and it
was a blast. We talked with hundreds of therapists who are interested in doing
online counseling – but they have A LOT of concerns and questions. And they
should! There is much to consider. So I thought we should bring in a legal expert to
answer some of the questions that I got over and over again at the Symposium. So
why not get an attorney who is ALSO a counselor?! I found him: his name is Eric
Strom and he is a former Navy man who is in active private practice now and also an
attorney – providing “Legal Services to Mental Health Professionals”. Today – we
answer all the questions that are holding us back – online counseling across state
lines and in another state where the therapist is not licensed. Counseling
internationally. How do you check what each state says? HIPAA and how it applies
to skype, facetime, etc – and what changes may actually be coming to those
platforms. Ethics. Law. Clinical concerns – we talked about it all. This may be one
of the most valuable podcasts we have ever done and goes and in hand with our
great interview with Roy Huggins. And – you get to learn about his new project –
Counsel Chat. Hope you enjoy!
