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 Institute for Applied Behavior Analysis (IABA) STEP/SCIP- North Los Angeles, we provide Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, a science-based approach to help children and adults with communication, social, and daily living skills. Our ABA therapy is tailored to each individual and focuses on teaching beneficial skills while decreasing problem behaviors. We are committed to helping our patients reach their fullest potential and achieve greater independence. For more information on ABA therapy, we invite you to visit our website, where you can find our comprehensive guide to this important therapy.
At the Institute for Applied Behavior Analysis (IABA) STEP/SCIP -North Los Angeles, we understand that it’s a big decision to make when it comes to ABA therapy for your child. We provide high quality ABA therapy that seeks to improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors in a way that doesn’t try to “cure” autism. Our goal is to help children learn all that they can to reach their full potential while embracing their individual personality traits. To help you make the best decision for your child, we’ve put together a guide to the process of starting and ending ABA therapy.
At the Institute for Applied Behavior Analysis (IABA) STEP/SCIP -North Los Angeles, we understand that ABA therapy can be expensive. However, ABA therapy is usually covered by insurance when a child has an autism diagnosis. Since it has been extensively researched, autism is typically the only diagnosis insurance will authorize for ABA services. To understand how much ABA therapy costs, we recommend checking 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. At IABA – North Los Angeles, we are dedicated to helping you understand ABA therapy and its associated costs. Our guide explains everything you need to know about ABA therapy, so you can make the best decisions for your family.
