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.

Have questions?

At Autism Learning Partners- Costa Mesa, we understand the importance of speech therapy for autistic children. We understand that many people with autism have difficulty with social communication, and that working on communication skills such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversation, changing conversation topics, and understanding other people’s body language is essential. We also know that early intervention and language development play a critical role, and that speech therapy is often the first step in helping children grow into independent and confident individuals. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, here’s our complete guide to everything you need to know. At Autism Learning Partners- Costa Mesa, we are committed to helping your child reach their full potential and develop the communication skills they need to succeed.
At Autism Learning Partners in Costa Mesa, our team of speech therapists can help your child communicate in a variety of ways. We understand that each child is unique, so we provide individualized solutions that can help them with nonverbal skills, such as signs or gestures; forming speech in a clearer way; communicating thoughts and feelings; understanding and responding to questions; discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions; noticing and understanding body language; and feeding and swallowing. With our help, your child can learn to communicate effectively across all environments and make the most of their speech therapy experience.
At Autism Learning Partners in Costa Mesa, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. This therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, and uses principles to help children and adults learn to improve their communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills, while also addressing problematic behaviors. Our goal is to teach helpful skills that promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. Learn more about ABA therapy and how it can help you with our complete guide.
