It is widely believed that the quality of the relationship between the client and therapist is fundamental to the success of the therapy. As such, whether in-person or online therapy is preferable, it will ultimately be a very personal decision for you. The decision ultimately depends on individual needs, preferences, circumstances, and comfort levels. For some, the convenience and accessibility of online therapy make it the perfect choice, while others may prefer the more human physical connection offered by face-to-face therapy.
The important thing to remember is that it is always your choice, it is also increasingly normal, especially with the rise of people working over the internet and travelling frequently, to engage in therapy that is sometimes in person, sometimes over the internet. So if one form of therapy is not a perfect match for your needs, you could consider trying this new ‘blended approach’.
