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 like the program and the options for therapists, but I've had some technical difficulties before, as I accidentally booked a text session instead of video and it wasn't possible to change it on short-notice, even though my therapist would have been able to switch to video as well."

"I was really nervous to start therapy, and choosing a platform felt overwhelming. However, my therapist and the platform has made therapy a really great experience. There's material to look at in your own time which has really helped me set up a routine for self reflection, alongside options on how often and how you want to speak to your therapist. Making the leap to starting therapy was tough, but I know I made the right decision. Would recommend online-therapy.com for anyone unsure of where to start their self healing journey."

"So glad that me and my husband were able to find a marriage counseling situation that works for us. Being a therapist myself, I was hesitant and Katie and embraced this and has been able to help me quite a lot to separate provider from wife. She presented herself in a way where we both feel supported and able to tap into vulnerability. Make plans and move in a direction that is healthy. My understanding is that Katie has a history of providing trauma services to individuals as well in addition to many other things- Very knowledgeable, Supportive, And also able to tow the line and set boundaries for us both in a way that is gentle. Thank you so much Katie and Online Therapy! My husband and I both believe that we will be able to keep our marriage intact and move forward in a healthy way and would likely not have been able to do this without the service that Katie is providing. Highly recommend this therapist, regardless of the issues that one is living with!! Danni & David"
