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 Berkshire Speech & Language, we understand how important it is to recognize if your child needs speech therapy. While it is almost always recommended for autistic children, anyone can benefit from speech therapy if they are having difficulty with social communication. Speech therapy can help children respond to questions, start or end conversations, change conversation topics, understand body language and more. Early intervention is especially important for language development and speech therapy can help your child become more independent and confident. If your child is very quiet, struggles to say a few words, or does not speak at all, it might be time to seek out a speech therapist. To learn more, please visit our guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy.
At Berkshire Speech & Language, we strive to help your child reach their communication potential. Our team of dedicated speech therapists are here to provide the necessary support your child needs to communicate effectively and build their confidence. We specialize in nonverbal skills, forming speech in a clearer way, communicating thoughts and feelings, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, noticing and understanding body language, feeding and swallowing, and even stuttering. With our help, your child can learn the skills they need to communicate effectively in all environments.
Contact Phone number is (413) 884-4836.
