Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that best suits their needs - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which often makes it easier to balance therapy with work, family, and other obligations.

Licensed professionals provide care through these channels, and clients have the option to change therapists if they seek a different fit. For many people, the combination of accessibility and professional support makes online therapy a practical and effective option.
