One major advantage of remote therapy is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that fits their routine and comfort level - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to maintain regular care.

Therapists are licensed professionals, and individuals may change therapists if they prefer a different match. For those weighing options, online therapy can offer an accessible, adaptable approach to addressing common mental health and relationship concerns with experienced professionals.
