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.

for sure, therapy is basically bloodletting and leeches waiting for advances in neurology we won't survive to be treated with, but i would like to imagine a primarily in-person practice would not be as resilient to consistent negative outcomes.
