Who can request online counseling
Eligible clients physically located in Indiana during their sessions can ask about virtual counseling with Carl Mathews Jr. Services are online; Mathews Family Counseling LLC has physical offices only in Ohio. Discuss your needs, age where relevant, and whether online care is appropriate during the initial call.
Ohio license and Compact privilege
Carl holds an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) license and an active Counseling Compact privilege for Indiana. The privilege authorizes practice in the remote state through the Compact; it is not a separate Indiana-issued counselor license. Tell the practice if your location changes before a session.
Counseling around everyday concerns
Support may address anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger and emotional reactivity, stress, relationship concerns, parenting, and life transitions. Sessions are collaborative and can include CBT, DBT skills, solution-focused work, mindfulness, and acceptance-based strategies according to your goals.
Prepare for a 50-minute video session
Choose a private location, a reliable internet connection, and a device suitable for video. Ask for connection instructions before the first appointment. The therapist will discuss your physical location, privacy, and what to do if the connection is interrupted.
Confirm insurance before scheduling
An insurance plan listed on this website is not a guarantee of coverage for telehealth in Indiana. Compact privileges do not determine an insurer’s network or reimbursement rules. Call with your plan information to review payment options before scheduling; standard self-pay sessions are $125.
Coordinate your appointment time
Appointment hours are listed in Eastern Time. Indiana includes both Eastern and Central Time areas, so confirm the time zone for your appointment during scheduling. Online care avoids the trip to an Ohio office while still requiring a private, appropriate setting.
