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 have to say, using online-therapy has been extremely beneficial for my life. I am a busy grad student and healthcare worker who has been dealing with a lot of anxiety around my line of work and my daily responsibilities of someone who works/goes to school full time. My therapist and I tackled the root of the anxiety and focused on strategies of things I can do when I am feeling overwhelmed. Overall, i feel like I have become a more calm person. I think of my emotions before I react. I journal, I deep breathe. These are all habits I have learned through therapy, and I am so grateful to online-therapy for having a platform that makes therapy easily accessible."

"My therapist is amazing. She listens and provides constructive criticism when I need it. She breaks down my feelings and explanations of my experiences in terms that I understand and reinforces with a why or a how. I have never felt more comfortable sharing the uncomfortable and genuinely feeling better about myself after each session."
