One of the main benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.

Therapists offering remote appointments are licensed professionals, and clients can change therapists if they would prefer a different fit. This approach allows people to access professional support in a way that aligns with their needs and routines.
