Abstract
In this chapter, the authors present three case studies that highlight the complexities of telepsychology practice when practicing across state lines within the regulatory environment at the time this was written. The risk management and regulatory perspectives for each case study are described and contrasted. Readers can evaluate their own situations and gauge the potential risks and benefits. Not surprisingly, all sides will not necessarily agree on an approach, underscoring why practitioners should give careful consideration to how to proceed if they are thinking about engaging in telepsychology across state lines. It should be noted that specific states identified in any of the case examples are used strictly for illustrative purposes, demonstrating the thought process for considering whether to engage in telepsychology across jurisdictional lines.
