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.

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 Beach Cities Speech Therapy, we understand the importance of early intervention for autistic children, which is why we specialize in providing speech therapy services that can help your child develop their language and communication skills. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, you may notice that they struggle with responding to questions, starting and ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, or understanding other people’s body language. Our knowledgeable staff can evaluate your child and create a customized therapy plan that fits their unique needs. Visit our website for an in-depth guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy, and contact us today to get started!
At Beach Cities Speech Therapy, our goal is to help your child learn to communicate effectively with others in any environment. With our help, your child can learn to use simple signs, verbal speech, gestures, and AAC to express their thoughts and feelings. We’ll also work on nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, noticing and understanding body language, and feeding and swallowing. With our expertise in speech therapy, we can help your child adapt and communicate properly with the world around them.
Contact Phone number is (310) 684-3896.
