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.

I do therapy online. Real talk: I don't like it but I don't like therapy to begin with if I'm being perfectly frank for a lot of reasons. TBH I mostly do it because I fucking love my partner who is a big believer in therapy and I do genuinely believe that talking with my therapist at least has the knock on effect of mitigating how much emotional labor I ask of her when working through my shit. Online is at least convenient. I found my therapist through psychologytoday.com as well.
