One of the primary benefits is flexibility. People can connect with therapists in the format that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy schedules and changing obligations.

Therapists offering remote care are licensed professionals, and individuals may change therapists if they feel a different fit would better meet their needs. For those weighing options, online therapy can offer a practical and accessible route to support and skill-building.
