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.

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 Autism Builders in Occoquan, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, and its primary goal is to teach helpful skills that promote independence and reduce negative behaviors. Our team of dedicated therapists can help you develop the communication, social, and daily living skills you need to thrive. To learn more about ABA therapy, visit our website and browse our comprehensive guide.
At Autism Builders in Occoquan, we understand that it’s a big decision for families to determine if Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the right approach for their child. We believe that ABA therapy is a valuable tool to help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. However, we caution families to watch out for providers who look to “cure” autism and to seek out therapy that promotes acceptance, respect, and understanding of the individual’s unique needs. To help families make this important decision, we have created a comprehensive guide to starting and ending ABA therapy.
At Autism Builders in Occoquan, we understand that the cost of ABA therapy can be a concern for families. That’s why we provide a comprehensive guide to understanding the costs of ABA therapy. Generally speaking, ABA therapy is covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. It’s important to note that insurance typically only authorizes ABA services for autism diagnoses, as it has been extensively researched and proven to be beneficial. To ensure you have the best coverage, always check with your insurance plan to confirm that ABA therapy is covered and that your provider is in-network. Get started today with Autism Builders’ guide to ABA therapy costs.
