Telehealth via PSYPACT
Dr. Allen holds an Authorization to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT), which allows her to provide telehealth services to clients in 42 states.
PSYPACT is an agreement between states to honor aspects of a psychologist’s licensure in order to increase access to care for individuals and couples living in locations that are not the same as their provider.
