Is online therapy actually effective?
Research shows that for many issues—such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties—online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. What often matters most is finding a therapist you connect with and staying consistent over time.
Learn how to start online therapy →
When is online therapy a better fit than in-person?
Online therapy is ideal if you:
  • have a busy or changing schedule,
  • live far from providers or have limited transport,
  • prefer the privacy and comfort of your own space,
  • travel frequently or split time between locations.
For many people, this flexibility is what makes it possible to actually stay in therapy.
Explore flexible online therapy options →
Is online therapy private and secure?
Reputable online therapy platforms use encrypted connections and secure apps that are designed for confidential healthcare communication. Sessions are held in a private space of your choosing, which can feel safer than a public waiting room.
See trusted online therapy platforms →
How do costs compare with in-person therapy?
Online therapy can sometimes be more affordable overall: there are no travel costs, less time away from work or family, and many platforms offer predictable weekly pricing. The value often comes from being able to attend regularly without extra friction.
