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.

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 Children’s Autism Center – Fort Wayne South, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy, especially if they have been recently diagnosed with autism. Our dedicated team of professionals can provide an assessment to determine if your child needs speech therapy and recommend the appropriate intervention. Speech therapy is a critical component of early intervention for autistic children, as it can help them learn effective ways to communicate which will help them grow into more independent and confident individuals. If your child is struggling with speaking, they may be very quiet, say only a few words, or not speak at all. Our team can provide guidance and answer any questions you may have. To learn more about speech therapy and how it can help your child, please visit our website where you can find a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know.
At Children’s Autism Center | Fort Wayne South, our speech therapists are dedicated to helping children with autism communicate effectively. Our speech therapy services focus on a variety of areas, including nonverbal skills, forming speech clearly, understanding and responding to questions, discerning facial expressions, noticing body language, and more. We also specialize in helping children with feeding and swallowing difficulties, as well as those who stutter. Our team of experienced speech therapists strives to meet the individual needs of each child, providing the support and guidance needed to help your child communicate across all environments.
At Children’s Autism Center | Fort Wayne South, we understand the importance of ABA therapy for those living with autism. ABA therapy, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is an evidence-based therapy rooted in the science of learning and behavior. Our clinicians use techniques based on ABA to help those we serve learn to improve their communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills while also addressing problematic or challenging behaviors. Our ultimate goal is to empower our clients and help them to become independent and reduce any harmful behaviors. We understand how important ABA therapy can be and want to provide our clients with a complete guide to everything you need to know about it.
At Children’s Autism Center in Fort Wayne South, we understand that making the decision to pursue ABA therapy for your child is not an easy one. Our goal is to provide you with the information you need to make the best decision for your family. We believe that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) can help to improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. We also understand that high quality ABA therapy should not be focused on “curing” autism or changing who your child is, but rather helping them to learn all that they can so they can reach their full potential while embracing their unique personality traits. We have put together a guide to help you start and end ABA therapy, so you can make the most informed decision possible.
At Children’s Autism Center | Fort Wayne South, we understand the importance of knowing the cost of ABA therapy and how it can be covered. Generally, insurance covers ABA therapy with an autism diagnosis as its benefits have been widely researched. However, we advise you to check with your insurance plan to ensure ABA therapy is covered and that the provider you are seeking care from is in-network. Our comprehensive guide to ABA therapy provides you with all the information you need to make an informed decision.
