ONLINE MINDFULNESS THERAPY TO OVERCOME DRIVING ANXIETY

Driving anxiety and highway phobia is actually quite common. I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy, which I offer online via Skype in which I will teach you very effective methods for reducing your driving anxiety and panic attacks on the road. Most people see dramatic improvements after 3-4 online sessions.

What makes therapy for driving anxiety effective is when you stop fighting or avoiding the anxiety that arises but actually take the time to "sit" with these emotions and make friend with them. You learn how to meditate on your emotions using the mindfulness techniques that I teach. This approach really works!

We also do a lot of imagery work, which is vital. A driving phobia, the fear of driving over bridges and overpasses for example is entirely due to the psychological imagery - the way you see it in your mind. Intense imagery creates intense anxiety.

The key is to investigate your emotional imagery and change it. Once you change this automatic imagery you change the anxiety directly. Reprocessing emotional imagery is essential if you have fear of driving after a car accident. You need to change that traumatic imagery directly, and this is something we cover during online therapy sessions.

The best form of psychotherapy show you how to control the reactive habitual anxiety thoughts that reinforce your anxiety and also to learn how to manage the underlying anxiety emotion itself.

Mindfulness Therapy offers one of the most effective methods for doing this.

I will teach you how to overcome your specific anxiety around driving using mindfulness training.

This approach will involve Mindfulness-based Exposure Therapy, and you should be prepared to conduct a Skype therapy session in your car.

Online therapy for driving anxiety

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional online therapist and I specialize in mindfulness therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression, and this also includes online treatment for driving phobia.

Driving phobia is very common, actually, and it can be treated very easily using the techniques of mindfulness therapy that I offer. The most essential thing with driving phobia is to change the way that you relate to your thoughts and anxiety reactions.

The most common problem is that when these anxiety producing thoughts or emotional reactions get triggered we simply become completely identified with them. We collapse into those emotions, those thoughts. We become the anxiety and then it takes over and it will then magnify itself and increase and proliferate even more anxiety producing thoughts and emotional reactions.

So, to break this cycle of a phobia you have to learn how to form a conscious and non-reactive relationship with those thoughts and emotional reactions.

You do this by cultivating mindfulness. You learn to meditate on your anxiety and on those react to thoughts directly. You learn to develop emotional stillness and independence in relationship to those very thoughts. Most of us try to escape those thoughts and push them that way. But this has a disastrous effect in actually increasing the anxiety.

It's only when you learn to face your anxiety without reacting that the anxiety can resolve itself, heal and eventually extinguish itself. So, mindfulness therapy is one of the most effective ways of working with intense thoughts and anxiety reactions.

The program that I teach feature in the online therapy sessions is one of establishing a challenge, first of all A particular stretch of road that you have problems with that triggers that driving phobia, that's the challenge.

You will set up a routine of driving down that stretch of road every day, and so allowing yourself to really get access to that underlying anxiety and the thoughts that get triggered. But, we don't just do this in a blind way.

Instead we meditate on the driving challenge before hand. We play through the challenge in our mind, imagining ourselves driving that stretch of road. We look for the anxiety and thought reactions they get treated and the moment we find those reactions we welcome them.

We actually develop a friendly and conscious relationship with those thoughts. You see them as visitors, if you like, that arise in the mind. But those visitors who are not the same as your mind. And indeed your True Self is not any of the contents of mind - that's a very important teaching that we cover in great detail during Mindfulness Therapy.

So you learn by training to be present with those thoughts and emotions without reacting and without becoming identifying with them. So you're learning to become free from their influence.

You are overcoming the habit that causes you to react and produce anxiety or panic attacks. After you have meditated on the driving challenge as best you can, and you really try to just stay present and conscious and practice on the spot, mindfulness greeting of those thoughts and emotional reactions that might arise.

But the training that you have established in the meditation before doing the challenge will help you greatly and that training will begin to take hold automatically with practice.

So people usually see quite significant changes after the first three or four weeks of practicing with me using mindfulness to overcome their driving phobia. If you'd like to learn more about the mindfulness approach to treating driving phobia, then please go to my website.

How to Get Over Fear of Driving - Online Therapy via Skype

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional online therapist and I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy for the treatment of anxiety.

One of the most common forms of anxiety that I encounter is driving anxiety or highway phobia. It is quite surprising how common this is throughout America.

So, the mindfulness approach is particularly effective for all forms of anxiety and particularly driving anxiety because it helps you change the underlying process actually causes anxiety, rather than just treating symptoms.

And with most forms of highway phobia, fear of driving on the highway or freeway, fear of crossing bridges, fear of driving in remote areas, for example. Whatever the type of driving or highway phobia that you are struggling with, there is one key factor to making successful change, and that is to change the underlying imagery of that anxiety.

All emotions are based around internal habitual imagery; it is how you see it in the mind that creates that anxiety or panic attacks, and this is what we need to change, and we do this through the methods of Mindfulness Therapy, which I offer online via Skype.

If you would like to learn more, simply email me and I will be happy to answer your questions and schedule a trial Skype therapy session with you.

Most people see quite substantial changes after 3 or 4 sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is very different than traditional "talk therapy"; it's much more focused on the underlying process that causes anxiety rather than just talking about managing symptoms. This is not enough.

You have to change that underlying habit, and that is what driving anxiety is: It is an emotional habit, and habits can be changed, and that's what we do during Mindfulness Therapy sessions. Very effective indeed.

So, please go to my website and simply email me. I will be happy to answer any questions you have and then we can schedule a Skype therapy session for your driving anxiety. Thank you!
