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.

"Love Amanda Laflamme my therapist. She is easygoing, easy to talk to, understanding but also isn’t scared to call me out or ask me tough questions. Just from doing most of the worksheets and one session with her and I feel 100x better. Just one session and already implementing her strategies and it’s immediately working. I’m so grateful I did a Google search and found this website. Thank you Amanda and Online-Therapy! Thank you so much!!!! Really looking forward to the rest of my journey working with her!!!"

"I feel like I've always wanted to get therapy but never quite jumped on it until something happened and I really thought it was time. It was probably the best decision I've taken. I really enjoy the professionnalism that is shown through this platform. I am very satisfied with the services provided by online therapy and the flexibility that is provided to you as well. If you were ever thinking of getting therapy and wasn't sure, do it. This is honestly a great platform to do so as well."

"I think it's a good, accessible way of getting professional mental help and advice. In-person is still a must for serious cases."
