I have been in virtual therapy since Oct '21 with my therapist at Psychology Specialists of Maine in Brunswick. I only live 5 minutes from her office, but I have come to really appreciate the benefits of doing it remotely. If I'm having a difficult day, I can "show up" with messy hair in my pajamas for our appointment. I get to sit in my private space feeling safe, and if for some reason there isn't privacy at my house that day, I can drive over to a park and use my phone.

Finding any therapist can be tricky right now, and finding one you vibe with can be harder. If OP is open to local*-ish* remote therapy, they improve their chances a lot.
