Could remote therapy be a good fit?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For a wide range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and major life changes - research and practice indicate that therapy delivered remotely can be comparable in effectiveness to traditional face-to-face sessions for many clients.



One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with a therapist in the format that best suits their circumstances and comfort level, choosing from video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives, manage mobility or health limitations, and maintain consistency over time.



Therapists offering remote work are licensed professionals who use a range of therapeutic approaches to meet individual needs, and clients can change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For those weighing options, remote therapy offers a practical, effective route to ongoing therapeutic support.
