This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to receive care from a convenient location.

Licensed professionals provide online services, and people are free to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many, online therapy offers a practical and effective route to support and problem-solving with a licensed therapist.
