You have worked your a** off to get your therapy license—so obviously, you’re not about to risk it just because you want to live abroad.

But your licensing board isn’t the ONLY thing you need to think about when becoming a digital nomad therapist.

If you want to build a location-independent private practice and continue seeing your US clients while traveling or living abroad, there are a few other legal-ish things you need to have on your radar: your malpractice insurance, your EHR, and how you’re actually billing your clients.

And thankfully? These things are probably a lot less complicated than you think.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what therapists need to know about working abroad while maintaining a US-based private practice, including what to look for in your malpractice insurance policy, why your EHR’s terms of service matter, data privacy laws like GDPR, and why platforms like Alma, Headway, Grow, and Rula can make becoming a digital nomad therapist more complicated.

I’m also sharing why I personally switched from SimplePractice and Sessions Health to Jane, what private pay therapists need to consider when working abroad, and why the legalities of becoming a digital nomad therapist might actually be the EASY part.

Because the bigger challenge usually isn’t your license.

It’s building a private practice that actually gives you the freedom to leave.

And stay until the end because I’m giving you a very real update from Brazil... where our digital nomad trip has basically turned into a mold-infested nightmare. 🙃
