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?

If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics in Tampa can help. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children, and it’s usually the first step for recently diagnosed kids. It’s important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible if there are any delays in that area. Your child can learn effective ways to communicate and grow into a more independent and confident individual. If a child is very quiet, says only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, speech therapy might be necessary. For more information and guidance, visit Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics in Tampa to learn more about speech therapy and how it can help your child.
At Independent Living, Inc. Pediatrics in Tampa, our speech therapists are dedicated to helping your child communicate effectively. From nonverbal skills and forming speech to understanding facial expressions and body language, our speech therapists strive to provide the highest quality of care. We also offer assistance with feeding and swallowing, as well as stuttering. With our comprehensive approach, we are confident that your child will gain the tools they need to communicate effectively and confidently.
