One major benefit is convenience. People can connect with therapists in the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to maintain consistency and fit sessions into busy schedules.

Licensed professionals offer a range of therapeutic approaches online, and clients can seek a different fit if a particular therapist does not meet their needs. For many, remote therapy provides an accessible and practical way to receive ongoing support from qualified therapists.
