Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person?

Absolutely! Emerging data reveals the truth: yes, online therapy for kids and families works!

  • With Little Otter, 85% of families see clinical improvement in just six sessions. Read more here.
  • Another study looked at the efficacy of internet-delivered PCIT, or Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. It showed that the Internet-delivered group reported a higher level of “excellent” responders.
  • Some providers report that 90% of virtual consultations with two-parent families now include both parents. Previously, dads only participated in 5% of those appointments.
The truth is, digital delivery of mental health care is effective. In some cases, it's even more effective that traditional in-person therapy.
