I don't mean with BetterHelp or some other shit advertised on a podcast. I was looking up some therapists on psychologytoday.com and noticed so many do it online. There are some in person ones near me but they are still like a 35 min drive. I guess my side of the midsized city im in doesnt seem to have much.

I usually do my sessions online now, but I could go in person if I wanted to. It's the same thing, you can just do it in your pajamas. Since it's a 20 minute drive and gas is fucking expensive I'm fine doing it over TeleHealth. I'm still doing talk therapy and my therapist can even send me images explaining concepts and whatnot.
