Telehealth Therapist Jobs Serving Veterans in North Dakota

Is ValorWell hiring therapists in North Dakota?

Yes. ValorWell has a great need for more licensed therapists in North Dakota. Veterans, Veteran spouses, and children of Veterans there are looking for therapists who accept CHAMPVA and VA Community Care, and there aren't enough.

VA estimates about 46,477 Veterans live in North Dakota, according to VA's fiscal year 2025 Annual Benefits Report. It's a smaller population, but providers who take VA programs are scarcer too.

Which licenses can treat Veterans and families in North Dakota?

The independent counselor license in North Dakota is the LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor), issued by the North Dakota Board of Counselor Examiners. Licensed marriage and family therapists, independently licensed clinical social workers, and licensed psychologists in North Dakota also qualify, under the titles North Dakota uses.

For telehealth, the license has to match where the client is sitting during the session. To see a client located in North Dakota, you need a North Dakota license or a valid compact privilege. See Can Therapists See Telehealth Clients in Another State?

Can you practice in North Dakota through a compact?

• Counseling Compact: North Dakota has enacted the compact but wasn't yet listed as issuing privileges as of October 2026. Until it does, counselors need a North Dakota license.
• PSYPACT: North Dakota participates, so psychologists with PSYPACT authority can practice telepsychology with clients located there.
• Social Work Licensure Compact: North Dakota has enacted it, but the compact isn't issuing multistate licenses yet.

Compact status changes often. See Counseling Compact, PSYPACT, and the Social Work Compact and the Counseling Compact map.

Important limits

• Need isn't a referral guarantee. Volume depends on client eligibility, authorizations, and fit.
• Fully licensed only. Associates and prescribers aren't a fit right now.
• Check the board. License titles and rules can change; the state board is the authority.
