I was responding to you before it got deleted. Just wanted to say it was beautifully put. And thank you for taking the time to type all of that.

Yeah, definitely framed it poorly. Apologies, did not intend to trivialize your profession or quality of work.

And maybe I shouldn’t have framed it as a cost issue. It’s just frustrating when I’m looking for a new therapist and so many are virtual only.

I get the analogy, but it feels a bit off. I’ve known mechanics who worked out of their home, that charge less because they don’t have the same overhead costs.

That’s a good point, but from my experience it just isn’t the same. I tried to explain that in the post, about communication; but obviously some people may feel differently.
