This flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to reach a clinician from a convenient location.
Licensed professionals deliver care through these remote options, and if a different therapeutic fit is desired it is possible to switch providers. Online therapy can offer practical access to therapists and a range of approaches that support people working through everyday concerns and life transitions.
