Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support people who are managing chronic illness or caregiving responsibilities by making attendance more flexible. Talk with the therapist when you schedule to match session timing and style to your daily routine.
