One major benefit is flexibility - people can connect in the format that suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.

Therapists who offer remote sessions are licensed professionals, and clients may change therapists if they prefer a different fit. For many, online therapy offers an accessible and effective way to get support while maintaining the same core elements of therapeutic work.
