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.

"This is my first experience of any therapy and I'm been very happy so far. It's only been a month, but the combination of weekly sessions and worksheets to work through have been very helpful. I'm finding the writing process very cathartic. Regarding the sessions, I didn't require anything groundbreaking, I just needed a neutral voice who could help me to better understand my own hypothesis of what I was facing. It has been everything I required, and I've been very pleasantly surprised at how quickly it has had a positive effect on my life."

"When I stalled out working with a traditional therapist, I thought I'd try this.

It's been very helpful to give awareness of the actual messages in my head, and how to answer/counter them.

Now, instead of talking over and over about how my childhood experiences cause me problems, I have some tools to help move beyond them. Thank you!"

"so far, so good! My therapist seems empathetic, compassionate and is easy to share with.
The therapy is expensive, perhaps because my last therapy was "rent-controlled" ha ha.
But it's all relative. My mental health is worth the expense!"
