Why Online Therapy is Changing Mental Health Care in NYC

Between packed subway commutes, long work hours, and the endless hustle of city life, finding time for therapy in Brooklyn or NYC can feel impossible. But what if you could prioritize your mental health without adding another appointment to your commute?
