Mental health issues are prevalent, yet access to counseling services remains limited. This mixed-methods study with a quasi-experimental design investigates the outcomes of online counseling services compared to traditional face-to-face counseling. The findings suggest that online counseling effectively increases access to mental health support, particularly for rural and underserved populations, with no significant differences in outcomes compared to face-to-face counseling.</em></p> 2024-12-21T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c)
