Online Mindfulness Psychotherapist for Stopping Agoraphobia and Social Anxiety Disorder without relying on medications.
Talk to a Psychotherapist Online via Skype for effective online help and mindfulness-based therapy for overcoming Chronic Agoraphobia, Chronic Anxiety, Panic Disorder and Social Anxiety.
If you want to recover fully from agoraphobia you must treat the underlying habitual anxiety reactions.
Prescription medications don’t address this. Medications only provide a tempry relief from anxiety symptoms, but do very little to change the underlying psychological cause of your anxiety.
During Mindfulness-based Exposure Therapy (Mindfulness Therapy) we work on healing these habitual reactions directly at the psychological level. This approach is very effective and most people see significant improvements after 3-4 Skype sessions.
Online therapy works very well as long as you use Skype, FaceTime or Zoom so that you can see each other. Being able to see each other is necessary for good communication and effective psychotherapy.
Internally, every emotion is structured around imagery – inner pictorial representations that resonate with the emotion. For example, anger is usually associate with the color red and anger is structured around imagery that is red in color and probably hot as well.
We can learn about the structure of our inner imagery by observing our emotions with mindfulness. From what we learn, we can intuitively see what changes in the imagery might be helpful. Change the imagery and you change the structure of the emotion.
People with agoraphobia typically have a great deal of inner imagery, very often based on the feeling of emptiness, an inner void or black hole that threatens to swallow up everything.
Discovering the structure of this imagery provides a very powerful tool for changing the intensity of the anxiety underlying agoraphobia. This approach is one of the most effective treatment for agoraphobia and was pioneered by Dr. Strong in the 1980s.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional psychotherapist and I offer mindfulness-based online therapy for agoraphobia, anxiety disorders and panic attacks.
The mindfulness approach is extremely effective and during online therapy sessions I will teach you how to work with your agoraphobic anxiety using the techniques of mindfulness to help you prevent your becoming overwhelmed by the anxiety reactions. We do this by actually meditating on our anxiety before we do any challenges.
Meditating helps to change the relationship that you have with your anxiety and this is absolutely essential, because the biggest problem that I encounter is that people suffering from anxiety tend to become identified with their emotions. They tend to become consumed by their emotions. They effectively lose their identity and become the emotions and this creates a very reactive place that is very difficult to escape from.
So with mindfulness training you can change this pattern and learn to develop a relationship with your anxiety whereby you do not become identified with it where you can see the anxiety as an observer. This is essential for change. Once you begin to do this the rate of recovery from agoraphobic anxiety and panic attacks increases dramatically, and most people will see quite substantial changes after only four or five sessions with me once they start applying the mindfulness-based techniques.
So the basic idea is that you will schedule sessions with me and we will work on setting up a series of challenges that you can manage and then you prepare for these challenges using mindfulness meditation. You do that challenge and you meditate on any anxiety that arose during that challenge. And each time we learn a little more about how to change our relationship to our anxiety so that we basically break free from the habit of identification and becoming overwhelmed by it. And this approach is, from my experience, the most effective there is for overcoming agoraphobic anxiety. So if you'd like to get started with me simply go to my website and then email me to schedule a Skype therapy session with me.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional mindfulness therapist specializing in mindfulness therapy which I offer online via Skype for the treatment of anxiety and depression, and also for agoraphobia. So if you'd like to learn how to overcome agoraphobia without medication do please go to my website and read my pages on the treatment of agoraphobia using mindfulness therapy.
It is important to understand that medications don't actually treat agoraphobia. They treat the symptoms of anxiety and they simply mask those symptoms. They reduce them, but only in a temporary manner. The underlying cause of your anxiety, your panic attacks, your agoraphobia, remains untouched by medications.
If you want to really overcome agoraphobia you have to change those underlying psychological patterns, those emotional habits, that create the anxiety in the first place. So this is essential and this is what we focus on during these online mindfulness therapy sessions for agoraphobia.
You don't need medication, you need instead to develop a very positive and conscious relationship with your anxiety. When you do this you actually teach the anxiety how to heal itself by being present with it without becoming reactive. The best analogy here is a parent and child. So the child is afraid. What does it need? What it really needs is to be in contact with its parent, who is not afraid. The fearlessness of the parent is absorbed by the child and that allows the child to release his or her fear. So this connection between child and parent is extremely important for healing the underlying cause of the child's fear.
The same goes for our anxiety, our emotions. They tend to become isolated in the mind, they become cut off from our true self, the bigger aspect of who we really are When they are isolated they cannot heal and then they become reactive and create the symptoms of anxiety and panic attacks that you are familiar with.
When we build an internal relationship between your true self and your emotions, that relationship allows those emotions to start to change and heal. And when that relationship is strong and based on consciousness and friendliness, the two key features of mindfulness, then that healing process becomes very strong and very fast.
So this approach of bringing mindfulness to the emotional reactions that underlie our agoraphobia is very effective in deed and produces results in very few sessions compared to conventional talk therapy, and certainly better than medications.
So if you'd like to learn how to overcome agoraphobia without medication and using the methods of mindfulness therapy that I teach then please email me and let’s schedule an online therapy session.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist and I offer online therapy. If you would like to see a therapist online for help with agoraphobia, then please do go to my website and learn more about this online therapy service.
Many people come to me for help with agoraphobia and of course being able to see a therapist online is extremely valuable. If you're suffering from agoraphobia and you're experiencing the anxiety of leaving home of traveling to see a therapist in their office that's the major problem that we have to overcome. Of course with agoraphobia we have to learn how to address these anxiety reactions that you're having and if you can't leave home then that becomes very difficult. So the online therapy option is a very good choice if you are suffering from severe anxiety and agoraphobia.
So the approach that I use for helping people overcome agoraphobia is called Mindfulness Therapy and it is a very effective approach, one that I have developed over the years and refined, and from my experience it's probably the best approach out there for helping you overcome those anxiety reactions so that you can leave home and go into previously difficult situations and difficult spaces that would have caused great anxiety in the past.
Our mission here is to learn how to change those habitual anxiety reactions and mindfulness therapy is extremely good at doing this. It has some similarities to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) but it's much more focused on working at the level of the anxiety itself. Mindfulness Therapy works more with emotions than thoughts because we see thoughts as being really the products of the underlying emotions rather than the other way round. So a common theme in Mindfulness Therapy is that we understand that thoughts do not cause anxiety but anxiety certainly causes a lot of thoughts that feed that anxiety.
So we have to work with the underlying anxiety directly. You can't do that just by trying to change the thoughts. Those are simply the byproducts of that anxiety.
So we do this by first of all designing a well-constructed schedule of exposure challenges. That is a necessary part of the recovery process. You design a series of challenges. It doesn't matter how small they are. The point is to do them well and to neutralize any anxiety reactions associated with that particular challenge. Then you progress to a more difficult challenge and you work with that in the same way using the various mindfulness techniques that I will teach you until you can do that challenge without any anxiety reactions at all and then he moved to another challenge and you move up a series of challenges progressing in difficulty until you can completely overcome all anxiety.
So if you'd like to learn more about this approach and you'd like to schedule some Skype therapy sessions with me to work on your agoraphobia, or other form of anxiety, then do please contact me and we can get started.
