One major benefit is flexibility - individuals can connect with a licensed professional in whatever format feels most accessible, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to continue care when in-person visits are impractical.

Licensed professionals offer a range of therapeutic styles, and clients may switch therapists if they are seeking a different fit. For many people, remote therapy provides a convenient and effective way to engage with a therapist while maintaining continuity of care.
