The original biography did not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and travel. It can reduce the need to commute, allow shorter check-ins during a break, and let someone connect without being on camera if that helps them engage. These practical benefits are considered alongside therapeutic fit when deciding how to work together.
