MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDER CLICK-TO-VERIFY™
eTherapyInstitute.org's Mental Health Provider "Click-to-Verify" program is the original Mental Health Consumer Assurance Program. The program provides confirmation to consumers that the mental health providers they are considering are licensed, in good standing and insured. Additionally, mental health providers presenting themselves on the Internet, who are awarded the "Click-to-Verify" Seal, must follow the recommendations set forth by the American Psychological Association, state regulatory boards and other professional organizations and associations.
Although eTherapyInstitute cannot make any claims or assertions regarding the specific treatment consumers receive from mental health providers who display the Seal, "Click-to-Verify" affords the peace of mind that comes with knowing that a mental health provider is indeed legitimate, credentialed and insured.
