One of the primary advantages is flexibility - individuals can choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort level, whether that is video sessions, phone appointments, live chat, or ongoing in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to incorporate therapeutic work into a busy life without the need for travel or rigid appointment times.

Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to request a different therapist if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible way to engage in consistent, goal-focused work with a trained mental health provider.
