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.

"Really helpful and good at guiding the sessions even when I haven't planned fully what to say. Sympathetic but knows when to challenge ways of thinking."

"I've found the weekly video sessions really useful to talk through how I'm feeling. So far I am yet to use much of the self-paced content"

"Bernadette has been a life saver for me. I've been in and out of therapy for as long as I can remember and none can compare to my experience here. By completing the courses, daily journaling and weekly sessions with Bernadette, I feel more hopeful than I have in a very long time. I'd recommend this program to ANYONE looking for an alternative therapy option"

"My therapist is incredible. Right from the start I have felt comfortable and like I was put with the perfect match. I was skeptical before and now I couldn't imagine my life without therapy. This journey truly has shaped me and I am excited to continue!"
