This range of communication options helps people choose the format that feels most comfortable and sustainable for them.

Licensed professionals offer a range of therapeutic approaches and work with clients to find the best match. If a different fit is needed, clients may switch therapists to find the right provider for their needs. For many, online therapy improves access and consistency, supporting progress even when in-person visits are not practical.
