Hey Alison:
Well, I cannot speak for others, but I agree with you about body language, etc. I offer audio/video counseling and it helps me with these problems. There are a few clients who prefer just text based sessions or email, but I tend to always "get to know them" first. Credibility would be the same for online or offline counseling. It is how you feel about your therapist and yourself. There are good therapists and bad therapists just like any other profession. There is a standard that all should adhere too, but that is not always the case whethe it is f2f or online. thxs for the post.
