Online Therapy for Depression

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’ve always been against therapy due to social stigma, Alan made this process less scary and more open.
Therapy is a great tool that i was just too afraid to tap into before."

"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."

"I've been with online-therapy.com for a month now and I must say, so far they are doing a great job. I've tried therapy before and it didn't work for me because if the therapist or the company itself and as I said so far I'm well impressed. I've felt well guided without pressure and a great thank you to Tanya, my therapist, as she is so so good. The program is really complete with a great way for us to guide ourselves or be guided by them. If you are feeling alone and not sure of what to do, give it a try.
You have nothing to lose as probably you already did l, so might as well. And don't give up on yourselves most of all. Be strong, you are loved and cared for!!!"
