Frequently Asked Questions About Depression Therapy
What type of therapy is best for depression?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most researched and effective treatments for depression. Other approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) or Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) may also be recommended depending on your symptoms and goals. During your consultation, we match you with a therapist whose approach aligns with your needs.
Is online therapy effective for depression?
Yes. Research shows that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions for treating depression. Virtual sessions allow you to access professional support from the comfort and privacy of your home anywhere in Ontario.
How long does depression therapy usually take?
The length of therapy varies based on the severity of symptoms and your personal goals. Some clients notice improvement within several weeks, while others benefit from longer-term support. Your therapist will work with you to create a plan that feels manageable and realistic.
Do I need a doctor’s referral for depression therapy in Ontario?
No referral is required to begin therapy with a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO). You can book a free 15-minute consultation directly through our website.
Can therapy help if I’ve been struggling with depression for years?
Yes. Even long-standing depression can improve with the right therapeutic approach. Therapy helps you develop new coping strategies, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and build emotional resilience over time.

Not everyone requires medication. Many individuals benefit from therapy alone. In some cases, a combination of therapy and medication may be recommended, which can be discussed with your family doctor or psychiatrist.
