At Online-Therapy.com, we are committed to providing effective and accessible therapy services. However, it is important to note that we do have certain age-related restrictions and considerations.

Age restrictions

• 18 years and older: Our services are designed for adults, and you must be at least 18 years old to use our platform independently.
• Teenagers: Teenagers are welcome to join our services, but we require consent from both parents. Parents must email us their consent before a teenager can start therapy with us. This ensures that all legal and ethical guidelines are adhered to while providing the necessary support for younger clients.
• Children: Our online therapy platform is not optimized for children. Children typically benefit more from in-person therapy where a therapist can directly interact with them to guide them through therapeutic techniques and practice new skills in real-time.

Resources for children and teens

If you’re looking for support for a child or teenager, there are several external resources that provide specialized assistance:

• Love Our Children USA: Offers a list of national and local resources tailored to children’s needs.
• Child Help USA: Access to the National Child Abuse Hotline for immediate assistance.
• Kids Help Canada, Kids Help UK, and Kids Help Australia: These organizations offer calling, chatting, and emailing services specifically designed for children and teens in need of support.

Here’s what you need to know about insurance coverage and online therapy services at Online-Therapy.com:

Insurance and reimbursement options

While we don’t accept direct insurance payments, this doesn’t mean your sessions can’t be covered by your insurance plan. Many insurance providers may reimburse you for therapy services, especially as online therapy gains recognition for its effectiveness.

Getting a reimbursement

To facilitate your claims, we provide itemized receipts for all payments. These receipts detail the therapy services received, making it easier for you to file for reimbursement with your insurance provider.

Check with your insurance provider

We recommend contacting your insurance company prior to starting your therapy sessions to determine if they cover online therapy. Coverage can vary significantly by provider and plan, so it’s a good idea to understand the specifics of what your insurance will and won’t cover.
