Is online therapy actually effective?
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.
Explore flexible online therapy options →
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.

Have questions?

At Achieving True Self, we are dedicated to helping our clients reach their goals through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, and utilizes principles of behavior to teach beneficial and independent skills, while reducing behaviors that may be difficult. ABA can help individuals with communication and social skills, as well as daily living activities. We have created a guide to provide you with all the information you need to know about ABA therapy. Learn how Achieving True Self can help you or your loved one reach their true potential.
At Achieving True Self, we understand the complexity of making a decision about ABA therapy for your child. Our approach is not to “fix” or “cure” autism, but to help individuals learn to reach their full potential while embracing their individual personality traits. To assist you in your decision-making journey, we provide a comprehensive guide on how to start and end ABA therapy. With Achieving True Self, you can trust that your child’s unique needs are always the top priority.
Contact Phone number is (866) 287-2036.
