Online Therapy vs In-Person Therapy

Not sure whether to see a therapist in person or online? This comparison highlights why online therapy is often the more flexible and accessible option.

Thinking about online sessions instead? See online therapy options
Aspect In-Person Therapy Online Therapy (often more flexible)
Convenience & Time ✖️ Requires travel, scheduling time off, and a fixed location. ✔️ No travel; join from home, office, or car when it suits you.
Scheduling Flexibility ✖️ Mostly office hours; fewer last-minute or out-of-hours options. ✔️ Early morning, evening, and lunchtime sessions are easier to find.
Comfort & Privacy ✖️ Waiting rooms, chance of meeting someone you know, commuting when feeling low. ✔️ Talk from your safest private space at home or elsewhere; no waiting room.
Therapist Availability ✖️ Limited to providers within driving distance and local specialties. ✔️ Access a much wider pool of therapists, including niche expertise.
Cost & Extra Time ✖️ Parking, travel expenses, and extra commuting time around each session. ✔️ No travel or parking costs; time is spent on the session, not the journey.
Accessibility ✖️ Harder for rural areas, busy parents, chronic illness or mobility issues. ✔️ Accessible from anywhere with internet; ideal for busy or remote lifestyles.
Consistency ✖️ Travel, moving, or bad weather can interrupt or cancel sessions. ✔️ Continue therapy even while travelling or during bad weather days.
Best For ✖️ Situations where physical presence or hands-on support is essential. ✔️ Most stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions.
Limitations ✖️ Less flexible; easier to miss sessions due to travel or schedule conflicts. ✔️ Requires internet and a private space; not suitable for emergency situations.

Bottom line: For most people, online therapy offers the best mix of convenience, comfort, and therapist choice—while still providing high-quality support.

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.

At Judevine Center for Autism in St. Louis, our Speech Therapy team works to help children with autism develop communication skills that enable them to interact with their peers and the world. With personalized approaches and dedicated care, our Speech Therapists can help children with autism gain the skills needed to understand and express their thoughts, feelings, and ideas.

At Judevine Center for Autism in St. Louis, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is rooted in the science of learning and behavior and helps individuals learn to improve their communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills. The primary goal of ABA therapy is to teach helpful skills that promote independence and reduce any harmful behaviors. Get more information on ABA therapy with our comprehensive guide.
At Judevine Center for Autism in St. Louis, we understand the difficulty of making the right decision for your family when it comes to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). We are here to help guide you through the process of starting and ending ABA therapy. Our goal is to help people reach their potential while embracing their unique personality traits – not to “fix” them, make them appear “less autistic”, or change who they are. We want to help your child learn communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. For more information on ABA, visit Judevine Center for Autism in St. Louis today!
At Judevine Center for Autism, we understand that the cost of ABA therapy can be a significant factor in the decision-making process. Fortunately, many insurance plans will cover ABA therapy if your child has an autism diagnosis. However, it’s important to check with your specific insurance plan to determine if the provider you are seeking care from is in-network and that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnosis. Judevine Center for Autism has compiled a comprehensive guide to help you better understand the costs of ABA therapy and what you can expect from the process. Visit our website to explore our guide and find out everything you need to know about ABA therapy.
