One of the main benefits is the flexibility it offers. Individuals can connect in the way that feels most comfortable - by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to integrate support into a busy schedule or during challenging times.

Licensed professionals are trained to provide meaningful care through these different formats, and clients can switch therapists if they are seeking a different fit. Considering remote therapy means weighing convenience, communication style, and personal preference when deciding how to pursue support.
