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 City Speech, Inc., we understand how important it is to recognize the signs of potential speech delays in your child. If you are concerned that your child might need speech therapy, our guide can help you learn more about the potential benefits of speech therapy and what to look for in determining if your child requires additional help. Speech therapy can help a child with autism learn to effectively communicate, respond to questions, change conversation topics, use gestures, understand body language and more. Early intervention is key to helping a child’s language development and is especially important if any delays are present. If your child is very quiet, only says a few words or doesn’t speak at all, it could be a sign they need speech therapy. Learn more about speech therapy and how it can help your child by reading our comprehensive guide.
City Speech, Inc. offers comprehensive speech therapy services to help your child communicate effectively. Our experienced speech therapists use a variety of techniques, including gestures, simple signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), to help your child develop nonverbal skills, form speech in a clearer way, communicate thoughts and feelings clearly, understand and respond to questions, discern facial expressions and their corresponding emotions, notice and understand body language, and address issues with feeding and swallowing, including stuttering.
Contact Phone number is (314) 704-5727.
