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 Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Here are some indicators that may indicate that your child may need speech therapy: difficulty responding to questions, difficulty starting or ending conversations, difficulty changing conversation topics, difficulty using gestures like pointing, and difficulty understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is an important part of early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently diagnosed kids. Our comprehensive guide to speech therapy will help you determine whether your child needs it and will provide you with the tools to help your child become more independent and confident with their communication skills. Reach out to us today to learn more about how we can help you and your child!
Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa provides specialized speech therapy services to help your child communicate effectively and improve their nonverbal skills. Our highly trained and experienced Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) have the tools and experience to help your child with verbal speech, forming speech in a clearer way, facial expression recognition, body language, feeding and swallowing, and more. Speech therapy can help your child learn to express their thoughts and feelings, understand and respond to questions, and use gestures, signs, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Let Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa help your child reach their speech and communication goals!
At Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is a science-based form of therapy designed to help children and adults learn communication, social, and daily living skills. The goal of ABA therapy is to help individuals become more independent and reduce any problematic or challenging behaviors. Get all the information you need to know about ABA therapy from our comprehensive guide.
At Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa, we understand that it’s a big decision to make for your family when it comes to deciding if applied behavior analysis (ABA) is the right fit for your child. ABA therapists strive to help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. We want to caution you to watch out for ABA providers who look to “cure” autism, as this is not what ABA is about. High quality ABA therapy does exist and it seeks to help children learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. To assist you in making the best decision for your family, we have compiled a detailed guide to help you start and end ABA therapy. Visit us at Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy | Impact Academy South Tampa today to learn more.
At Independent Living Inc. Pediatric Therapy – Impact Academy South Tampa, we understand that you may have questions about the cost of ABA therapy. ABA therapy is usually covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. However, it is important to check with your specific insurance plan to confirm that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider you are seeking care at is in-network. Our experienced team is ready to answer any questions you may have about ABA therapy and provide you with all of the information you need. Visit our website to explore our comprehensive guide to ABA therapy today.
