Questions about couples therapy in Santa Ana

Can we do couples therapy online in California?

Yes. 7 of the 9 verified therapists in Santa Ana offer online sessions. A therapist can generally only see clients online while those clients are located in a state where the therapist is licensed, so both partners should be in California (or another state where the therapist holds a license) during sessions.

Do couples therapists in Santa Ana take insurance?

Some do. Insurers mentioned on verified therapists’ websites include Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicaid and UnitedHealthcare / Optum. Many plans cover couples therapy only in limited cases, so ask your insurer and the therapist before your first session.
