It’s not her fault and I’m not saying she should be paid less but it’s not the same service. However, I guess it’s better than nothing.

If sessions are interrupted and Internet is down or what not and your session is shortened, then I could see how sessions need to be extended or rescheduled. My session was no different than face to face. If it’s much shorter or interrupted then it’s a different story
I think some verbiage rubbed me the wrong way. My point was that sometimes people forget that therapists are people like me and you and have to pay bills.
Therapist sitting in front of the screen (not by his choice, and they hate it just as much as clients) or sitting in a chair face to face have to eat just the same. We having to work online “have a nerve” to pay bills just the same, my bills aren’t less because of pandemics but somehow I have to get paid less because I sit in front of computer all day not by choice (I am not a t but the idea stands)
