One of the main advantages is flexibility. Individuals can choose the format that feels most comfortable - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make consistent care easier to maintain alongside work, family, and other obligations.

Therapists and other licensed professionals provide these services, and if someone decides they would like a different therapist, switching is typically an option. Online formats can support continuity of care and adapt to changing needs without sacrificing access to professional therapeutic approaches.
