for another anecdote, i really vibed with my telehealth therapist that i met last week. really looking forward to working with her!

Covid opened up more therapists to the idea of online services.

As someone in the medical field, there was a lot of legality issues - deciding where a provider needs to be credentialed when they are not practicing in the state which the patient is in, is a tricky issue. While I’m sure some providers were resistant to telehealth and were forced to get used to it starting in 2020, a lot of resistance was one of practical ‘can I legally do this’ concern.
