How can online therapy help you manage depression?
Depression is one of the greatest health challenges facing Australian’s today. Not only does it directly affect the sufferers, but it has rippling effects within families, friendship groups and wider communities.
Living under the cloud of depression can make the idea of recovery seem impossible but it is treatable, and many sufferers have come through the darkness to lead happy, healthy, meaningful lives.
At My Mirror, our highly experienced psychologists are trained in online evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT is a talk therapy that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts that keep you stuck in a state of low mood that perpetuates the cycle of depression.
Psychologists working with CBT can help you to become aware of and change unhelpful habits and patterns, schedule meaningful and enjoyable activities into your day and expose yourself to improve your mood and lead a more fulfilling life. CBT also involves challenging unhelpful thoughts, understanding their origins, and developing strategies to respond more effectively when they arise.
How can I get help with depression?
We know how important it is to speak with a professional quickly when you are experiencing depression. That’s why My Mirror has a range of highly experienced psychologists for depression available up to 21 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sessions are usually available with a psychologist within 24-hours of booking. You can access online psychology sessions from anywhere in Australia from the comfort of your own home.
