# 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](https://www.littleotterhealth.com/blog/online-therapy-for-children?utm_medium=email&_hsmi=200749111&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_hd_FxNyhBcmGOg7A45ob33hVqtoFAfqe__E6JIlFKzaX1injUhmEtbLvyVgNqBjtJcXl8Q_V4zuIlmHtUR0WdinOmrQ&utm_content=200749111&utm_source=hs_email).
- 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.
