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.

"Before even having the first session, I can already tell my therapist is fully involved and we are setting up a plan together that really respects my wishes and is aimed at a flexible but structured ‘recovery’ process."

"It took a few days to become adjusted to the website but once I became comfortable and familiar enough, I really started to enjoy it. I learned a lot within the first few days about “why” I think and react the way I do, and paying attention to my behavior has opened my eyes to so many things. I used to sit alone and wonder “what is wrong with me? Why do I think or act this way? What can I do to make it better?” I looked for answers in all the wrong places and couldn’t afford therapy out of pocket, until I was recommended to online-therapy. It’s affordable, I get to speak to my therapist more than I was previously, and everything is documented and recorded so I can always go back and review what I’ve already covered as a refresher. I didn’t enjoy therapy before, but this site has made it so much easier."

"It was a bit bumpy with the first pairing but they were honest in that we were not compatible. Then Katalin took over and it was great. Working together, listening, being pushed, challenged (really key) was amazing. Im grateful"
