Online Therapy for Depression

Category: Depression Online Therapy | Last updated: March 11th, 2026 | Medically reviewed by:

Do you have feelings of sadness and hopelessness, problems sleeping or are you experiencing a loss of energy and interest in daily activities? Feeling sad or having mood swings are just normal reactions to the ups and downs of life that everybody experiences. But if emptiness, worthlessness and helplessness have taken hold of your life and will not go away, you may be suffering from depression.

Most often, depression interferes with one's daily life and causes distress for both you and those who care about you. It makes it tough to function and enjoy your day-to-day life. You can no longer work, study, eat, sleep and enjoy life like you once did. Some even experience depression that is like living in "a black hole".

Our therapy for depression is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). It's your automatic dysfunctional thinking that perpetuates your depression. It keeps you in a downwards spiral of negative thoughts about yourself and the world around you. With the guidance of our online therapy program for depression and your therapist, you will learn that these negative thoughts are not reality. Rather, they are dysfunctional beliefs about your self and your life, and are something that can be replaced with more realistic and healthier ways of thinking. Using CBT you will learn coping strategies, so that you eventually will be able to face previously feared situations without getting anxious or feeling depressed. The focus of the therapy is not on the past and what caused your depression symptoms. Your therapist will work on making you feel better about yourself, here and now - and in the future.

"I can’t recommend Marisa highly enough. When I started therapy, I felt anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle of overthinking. Marisa created such a supportive and understanding space where I felt genuinely heard and understood.
She helped me work through some difficult emotions and, most importantly, helped me recognise that my feelings were valid. Through our sessions, I gained clarity, confidence, and a much kinder perspective towards myself. What once felt like a whirlwind of thoughts became much easier to understand and navigate.
I’m leaving therapy feeling far more optimistic about the future and much more confident in the decisions I’m making. Marisa has played a huge part in helping me get to that place, and I’m incredibly grateful for her guidance, compassion, and insight.

"My experience so far has been very helpful. I like how you can dive into material that is provided, work on things yourself, and then discuss with the therapist. I also like how they have access to the worksheets and can send messages for clarification or to talk about during therapy."

"I've done in person therapy before but I like the flexibility of this platform. I've only just the texting live sessions, but not had any errors or difficulties like a previous platform I tried. My therapist is great and is the first one I've really connected with, which is really important for effective therapy. Although I've worked through some of the worksheets I don't find that aspect particularly helpful I do appreciate the option."

"I’ve been very appreciative pf the services so far and I think the page works well and the CBT therapy has been working well for me. My therapist has been very considerate and has been offering good advice to me about my problems and has made me feel listened to. Would love an app, would make messaging slightly easier and more attainable than having to log in, that may be more of a personal barrier for me."

"The sessions and worksheets have been able to remind me that I can reframe most things, if not anything, into better perspective."
