I’m considering doing online therapy; however, I’ve never done therapy before.

Would you recommend in-person only, or is online okay? My instance offers some online resources called Teledoc.

I hear it cannot be easy to find someone you like and trust. It seems like the pool of people online is a lot greater than local to me.

    I’ve done both and prefer online. For best results, look at bios and try to find someone who specializes in neurodivergence.

      I’ve been looking at people with ADHD, Depression, & Anxiety. The search tools are somewhat limited, but I think I found someone. I booked it for next Wednesday. We’ll see how it goes!

      Thanks!

          I will; only a couple of days away! I’m looking forward to it; however, I’m worried that I think I’m going to find some cure for something. I keep forgetting it’s a journey, but I hope things will get easier suddenly.

          It went great! I’m going to keep seeing her weekly for a while. It wasn’t much because it was a first visit, but I think it’ll go very well. She actually lives within my city but only does virtual. She’s pretty good at it.
