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.

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 Essential Speech and ABA Therapy in Pearland, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy.

To help you make the best decision for your child, our team at Essential Speech and ABA Therapy has created a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy.

With our commitment to quality care, your child can gain the confidence to communicate effectively in any environment.
At Essential Speech and ABA Therapy in Pearland, we understand the importance of Applied Behavior Analysis therapy.
