Online Therapy vs In-Person Therapy

Not sure whether to see a therapist in person or online? This comparison highlights why online therapy is often the more flexible and accessible option.

Thinking about online sessions instead? See online therapy options
Aspect In-Person Therapy Online Therapy (often more flexible)
Convenience & Time ✖️ Requires travel, scheduling time off, and a fixed location. ✔️ No travel; join from home, office, or car when it suits you.
Scheduling Flexibility ✖️ Mostly office hours; fewer last-minute or out-of-hours options. ✔️ Early morning, evening, and lunchtime sessions are easier to find.
Comfort & Privacy ✖️ Waiting rooms, chance of meeting someone you know, commuting when feeling low. ✔️ Talk from your safest private space at home or elsewhere; no waiting room.
Therapist Availability ✖️ Limited to providers within driving distance and local specialties. ✔️ Access a much wider pool of therapists, including niche expertise.
Cost & Extra Time ✖️ Parking, travel expenses, and extra commuting time around each session. ✔️ No travel or parking costs; time is spent on the session, not the journey.
Accessibility ✖️ Harder for rural areas, busy parents, chronic illness or mobility issues. ✔️ Accessible from anywhere with internet; ideal for busy or remote lifestyles.
Consistency ✖️ Travel, moving, or bad weather can interrupt or cancel sessions. ✔️ Continue therapy even while travelling or during bad weather days.
Best For ✖️ Situations where physical presence or hands-on support is essential. ✔️ Most stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions.
Limitations ✖️ Less flexible; easier to miss sessions due to travel or schedule conflicts. ✔️ Requires internet and a private space; not suitable for emergency situations.

Bottom line: For most people, online therapy offers the best mix of convenience, comfort, and therapist choice—while still providing high-quality support.

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.
Learn how to start online therapy →
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 Behavioral Perspective in Oswego, we understand how important it is to recognize when your child needs speech therapy. If you have any doubts or questions about whether your child needs speech therapy, our guide has everything you need to know. We are here to help you identify any signs of difficulty in language development, such as responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Early intervention is important for children with autism and can provide a critical period for language development. Our speech therapy services are designed to help your child learn effective communication skills that will help them become more independent and confident. Let us be your guide to helping your child reach their full potential.
At Behavioral Perspective in Oswego, we understand that communication is key and that’s why we specialize in speech therapy. Our team of experienced speech therapists can help improve your child’s communication abilities by teaching them nonverbal skills such as signs and gestures, forming speech in a clearer way, expressing thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, recognizing body language, and improving feeding and swallowing. We strive to help your child communicate effectively in all environments and will do our best to help them reach their potential.
At Behavioral Perspective in Oswego, we provide Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to help children and adults learn and improve communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills, as well as address problematic or challenging behaviors. Our ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior with the primary goal of teaching helpful skills that promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. To learn more about ABA therapy, visit our website for our complete guide to everything you need to know about ABA therapy.
At Behavioral Perspective in Oswego, we understand the importance of making an informed decision when it comes to choosing an ABA therapy provider for your family. We provide comprehensive guidance and resources to help you evaluate whether ABA therapy is the right choice for your child. Our experts are passionate about helping children learn and grow while honoring their individual personalities. We believe that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) should focus on improving communication skills, introducing productive habits, and reducing harmful behaviors – not “curing” autism. Our goal is to provide high quality ABA therapy that will help your child reach their full potential. Visit our website to learn more about ABA and how we can help you make the right decision for your child.
At Behavioral Perspective, we understand how important it is for you to know how much ABA therapy costs. Generally, insurance will cover ABA if you have an autism diagnosis. However, it is important to confirm coverage with your specific insurance plan, as well as make sure the provider is in-network. To help you out, Behavioral Perspective has created a guide to the costs, coverage, and other considerations to keep in mind when considering ABA therapy. Check out our guide to learn more about ABA therapy costs and what you need to know.
