IMPACT THERAPY GROUP
DEPRESSION THERAPY
Depression can make even the most ordinary moments feel impossibly heavy — like you're moving through life behind glass, watching everyone else get on with it. It can also make it hard to believe things could ever feel different. But with the right support, they can. You don't have to keep waiting it out.

With the right support, depression does not have to be permanent.
Depression has a way of convincing you that this is just who you are — that the flatness, the heaviness, and the disconnection are simply your baseline. It makes everything harder: getting out of bed, answering messages, being present with people you love. And because depression often looks fine from the outside, many people spend years carrying it quietly, wondering why they can't just feel better.
What depression doesn't tell you is that it can be treatable. Not manageable-but-always-there — genuinely treatable. With the right therapeutic approach, people recover. They reconnect with their lives, their relationships, and a version of themselves that doesn't feel this way.
Therapy provides a non-judgmental space to understand what's underneath your depression, interrupt the patterns that sustain it, and build the kind of meaningful momentum that medication alone can't always create.
How Depression Therapy Will Help
Understanding Your Depression
Depression rarely exists in a vacuum. Together, we'll explore what's driving yours — whether that's longstanding patterns of thinking, unprocessed experiences, life circumstances, or a combination. Understanding the roots of your depression is the first step toward changing it.
Interrupting the Cycle
Depression creates a self-reinforcing cycle: low mood leads to withdrawal, which leads to less meaning and connection, which deepens the low mood. We'll work to interrupt that cycle with evidence-based approaches, building small, sustainable momentum that begins to shift how you feel.
Building a Life That Fits
Depression often signals a disconnect between how someone is living and what actually matters to them. Therapy helps you identify what's meaningful, reconnect with your values, and make changes that support a life that genuinely feels worth showing up for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is what I'm experiencing actually depression, or am I just going through a hard time?
Both can be true at the same time. Depression doesn't require a specific trigger or a dramatic reason — it can develop gradually, or appear during objectively difficult circumstances. If low mood, loss of interest, or exhaustion have been present for more than two weeks and are affecting your daily functioning, it's worth speaking to a professional rather than waiting it out.
Q: I've been depressed for so long that it feels like my personality. Can therapy still help?
Yes — and this is one of the most important things to know about depression. Long-duration depression can feel like identity, but it isn't. Many people who have struggled for years experience genuine, sustained recovery with the right therapeutic support. Duration does not determine outcome.
Q: Where do you offer depression therapy?
We offer online depression therapy to clients anywhere in Ontario. All sessions are held through a secure virtual platform — no commute, no waiting room.
Q: Is online therapy effective for treating depression?
Yes — research consistently shows that online CBT and other evidence-based approaches are as effective as in-person therapy for depression. Many clients find that being at home actually lowers the barrier to showing up, which matters a great deal when depression is making everything feel hard.
Q: What is the fee for a depression therapy session?
A 50-minute individual session is $155.
