One major benefit is flexibility – clients can meet with licensed professionals in the format that fits their lives, whether by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to attend sessions consistently and to integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch providers if they would like a different fit. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, effective option for addressing everyday mental health and relationship concerns.
