re: Can therapy be done effectively over Zoom?

I do zoom therapy with my therapist in Baton Rouge but was doing that pre Covid because I still wanted to see her—it works great but we also have a long established relationship, hence why I wanted to stick with her and not start over with someone new where I moved.

100% as effective? No. Can it be effective? Yes.
I held several sessions over Zoom years ago during my divorce. I used it because the guy I wanted to have therapy with was in Philly and flying to Philly once a week wasn't high on my list.
What I lost by being on Zoom was more than made up by this guy being that much better than any local person.

... Or is face to face the better option? I Have a young friend who thinks all of life can be experienced on a screen.
Yes and no. As BluegrassBell mentioned it's beneficial to people that don't normally have easy access to a therapist. Sure, in-person therapy is better than telehealth, but telehealth is better than nothing.
On a related note, 120 years ago people were saying that you didn't need a telephone in your house b/c if you wanted to talk to someone, you should do it in person. Everyone that lives long enough will think the younger generations are overusing technology.

I did 2 sessions on Zoom (my only ever) and it was fine for me.
