Research shows that for many issues—such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties—online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. What often matters most is finding a therapist you connect with and staying consistent over time.

When is online therapy a better fit than in-person?
Online therapy is ideal if you:
  • have a busy or changing schedule,
  • live far from providers or have limited transport,
  • prefer the privacy and comfort of your own space,
  • travel frequently or split time between locations.
For many people, this flexibility is what makes it possible to actually stay in therapy.

Is online therapy private and secure?
Reputable online therapy platforms use encrypted connections and secure apps that are designed for confidential healthcare communication. Sessions are held in a private space of your choosing, which can feel safer than a public waiting room.
See trusted online therapy platforms →
How do costs compare with in-person therapy?
Online therapy can sometimes be more affordable overall: there are no travel costs, less time away from work or family, and many platforms offer predictable weekly pricing. The value often comes from being able to attend regularly without extra friction.

At ABA Connect in McAllen, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. This form of therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, and helps those with disabilities and/or behavioral issues improve their communication, social, and daily living skills. Our goal is to promote independence and reduce problematic behaviors. With our complete guide to ABA therapy, you can learn everything you need to know about this form of therapy.
At ABA Connect in McAllen, Texas, we understand that choosing the right type of therapy for your child is a big decision. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a popular therapy choice that seeks to improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. However, it is important to be aware that some ABA providers may not have your child’s best interests in mind and aim to “cure” autism. We believe that high quality ABA therapy should be focused on helping people learn all that they can and enabling them to reach their potential, while embracing their unique personality traits. If you are considering ABA therapy for your child, our team at ABA Connect is here to help you through the process. We have created a comprehensive guide to help you to get started and finish ABA therapy with confidence.
Contact Phone number is (833) 225-9393.
