Online Therapy for Depression

Online Therapy for Depression in Ontario from Registered Psychotherapists | Psychotherapy CollectiveAt its worst, depression can feel debilitating. It can leave us feeling hopeless, disconnected, and dissatisfied with our lives. Though depression impacts everyone differently, many experience repetitive thoughts of self-blame, along with chronic feelings of guilt, shame, and sadness. It can also impact our concentration, appetite, sleep patterns, and energy levels.

Living with depression can impact our relationships with others. We may feel isolated, unable to share our experiences with those around us, or we may feel irritable or angry with those trying to support us. The pain of coping with it can sometimes lead to substance (ab)use, self-harm and/or suicidal ideation or attempts.

Whether you are experiencing depression for the first time or if it has weighed on you for years, or you are a parent evaluating how to help a depressed teenager, therapy can help. With the support of your psychotherapist, you may explore how depression has impacted your thoughts, emotions, physical experiences and behaviours. In addition to developing strategies to help cope with the impact of depression, you may also come to understand the underlying factors contributing to depression in your life. Online therapy for depression can help you learn how to cultivate curiosity and compassion towards your internal experiences, while also developing a greater sense of connection with yourself and others in your life.
