Welcome! My name is Peter Strong, and I am a professional psychotherapist. I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy, which I offer online. So, what is online therapy? Well, basically this is a way of getting help with anxiety or depression or addictions from a therapist using the internet. It is sometimes called Internet Therapy or even Skype Therapy, especially if you are using Skype as a way of talking with each other. I greatly prefer Skype for talking with clients because it allows us to have a much more direct and intimate form of communication, we can see each other, communication is just much more effective, when we can see each other as well as hear each other.
So, Mindfulness Therapy, which I offer online is one choice that is becoming very popular indeed, especially for working with anxiety, also with depression and addictions, as I say. This works particularly well online, but there are many other kinds of online therapy available, an if you are choosing online therapy, I recommend that you…make sure that you can talk to your therapist first of all, before you spend any money on this service. Make sure that the quality of online therapy that's being offered matches your needs and your style, and that it feels right for you. This is very important, so make sure you can talk to your prospective therapist either through Skype or through email communication before hand. I would recommend, never pay upfront for online therapy; always make sure that you are satisfied with what you receive and then make your payment. That's certainly what I offer in my online therapy service.
If you are interested in Mindfulness Therapy, in particular, please visit my website, and you will learn much more about Online Mindfulness Therapy. This is a very effective way of working with anxiety, depression and addictions, by helping you change the underlying cause of the anxiety or depression, rather than just treating the symptoms, and it's really much more effective than traditional talk therapy where you are just talking about your emotions. Much more effective if you look at the underlying process that creates those emotions. Looking at the patterns of reactive thinking and the structure of the emotion itself - how you see that emotion internally - very important, indeed, for producing effective change.
If you would like to learn more about the online therapy service that I offer, please contact me via email and ask any questions you have and when you feel comfortable then we can schedule an online therapy session.
Most people who choose the Mindfulness Therapy option can expect to see quite significant changes within, probably, 4 and 6 sessions; this is quite typical. The reason why it is so effective is because we look at this underlying cause, the underlying process. Can't emphasize that enough. That's what leads to change if you really want to get over anxiety or depression or if you really want to recover from an addiction.
So, please contact me and let's schedule a session of Mindfulness Therapy. Thank you!
GO TO MY CONTACT PAGE TO SCHEDULE ONLINE THERAPY WITH ME FOR HELP WITH ANXIETY and PANIC ATTACKS
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy for anxiety and also for depression. So if you're looking for real change, that is changing the underlying cause of your anxiety, then I have developed a system called Mindfulness Therapy which is extremely effective. It's the next stage in anxiety treatment after CBT. CBT is a good approach because it helps you work with the actual cause, the mechanism of anxiety, in that case the underlying patterns of reactive thinking.
While Mindfulness Therapy certainly works on helping you break free from reactive thinking, it also helps you change the underlying emotion that is causing that reactive thinking. So in Mindfulness Therapy we take this opposite approach, if you like. We recognize that the emotion precedes the thoughts. If you have anxiety, that anxiety will manifest itself in the form of different anxiety thoughts. Thoughts do not themselves cause anxiety. It's the other way around. However if we become identified with reactive thoughts then that has the effect of feeding the underlying emotion, the underlying anxiety, and then that creates a circle, a positive feedback loop that simply feeds the anxiety and prevents it from subsiding, from healing, so then it becomes ongoing.
So Mindfulness Therapy works very much at the level of the emotion itself, and that the primary way that we heal the underlying anxiety is by changing the relationship that we have with that anxiety. So typically, we have a very poor relationship with our painful emotions, whether that's anxiety or depression or guilt or anger or stress or shame, whatever it might be. We tend to run away from those emotions. We tend to push them away. We develop a fear-based relationship with our anxiety and, of course, if you react to anxiety with more fear then you will feed that anxiety. We typically try to push it away; we develop an inner hatred for that anxiety as well. Well, hatred is simply another form of fear. So again if you develop hatred for your anxiety you'll end up feeding it and preventing it from healing.
So in Mindfulness Therapy we focus on developing a conscious and friendly relationship with our anxiety. This is what has been proven to work over and over again. The better the relationship that you create with your anxiety the quicker it will heal. So the two principal factors in that relationship have to be increased consciousness and increased friendliness or compassion.
So the way we develop increased consciousness of our anxiety is to meditate on that anxiety, to put it in the center of our awareness, our attention, but to observe it as an observer.
So this is equivalent to the exact process that you would do to heal the anxiety of a baby or a child or a hurt animal. You interact in a process based on friendliness and consciousness, not reactivity and fear.
So this is what we need to develop internally, and meditation is the process for doing this. It's not a way of trying to escape your suffering. That's one form of meditation and it's basically wrong as far as I'm concerned. So real meditation is about taking care of real problems, and your emotions, if they are suffering, they're in a state of pain, they need your consciousness and compassion. They need you to meditate on them so you can help them change and heal.
So developing this an internal relationship based on consciousness and compassion is vital. If you do that effectively then your anxiety will heal quite quickly even if you've been suffering from the anxiety for many years. Once you start to change your relationship to it, it will heal very quickly. You can overcome generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic attacks, OCD, and even agoraphobia, when you start to change the relationship that you have with those emotions.
So if you would like to learn more about how to work with your anxiety using mindfulness, then please email me. People love the idea of online therapy. It's so convenient. It's so empowering for you. And being able to talk to a therapist online using Skype is just as good as talking to a therapist in person. So if you would like to get started with me please email me now. Thank you.
GO TO MY CONTACT PAGE ME TO LEARN HOW TO START SKYPE THERAPY WITH ME TO HELP YOU OVERCOME ANXIETY and PANIC ATTACKS
So if you're looking for an online therapist to help you overcome anxiety, I invite you to take a look at my website and learn more about the online Mindfulness Therapy service that I offer over Skype for the treatment of anxiety without using medications and without other procedures like that.
This is a very different kind of approach, one that focuses on teaching you how to work with your emotions more effectively using the techniques of Mindfulness Therapy, including mindfulness meditation.
So the way that I teach meditation is that you learn how to meditate on the mind and in this case on your emotions and specifically on your anxiety. You have to develop a very close and conscious relationship with your emotions if you want them to heal. The biggest problem that I see is that people try to run away from their anxiety and fear. Trying to avoid anxiety and trying to escape from anxiety producing situations is not a good strategy.
The avoidance is classified as a form of reactivity, emotional reactivity that is itself based on fear. And so if you react to anxiety with avoidance, you are basically feeding that underlying anxiety with more fear. So avoidance is not a suitable strategy.
Medications also can be viewed as a form of avoidance. They may provide a temporary relief from the unpleasant sensations of anxiety, but that is not an effective treatment for anxiety. The medications are really just reinforcing that underlying anxiety.
So if you want to heal anxiety, you must work on developing a conscious relationship with that anxiety that's not based on avoidance, but is based on being totally consciously present with that emotion and other associated emotions.
This is what I will teach you during our therapy sessions together. I will teach you how to develop a mindful presence with your anxiety. In that process you will be training out of the primary process of reactive identification that also feeds the anxiety.
You learn to be present with your anxiety without becoming identified with it. That means without becoming overwhelmed and consumed by that anxiety. We learn how to develop a conscious presence with our anxiety in which we remain free from that anxiety.
So this is an essential condition if you want to heal anxiety, you have to learn how to be present for your anxiety in the same way as a parent learns to be present with a child that's suffering. You cannot avoid the child's pain, you must be present with it if you want to help that child heal its suffering. Our emotions are very much like a child. They are conditioned, they are very limited in the consciousness and are not very good at resolving their own suffering, just like a child, the child doesn't have the resources to heal its own suffering. That's what the parent is for. So we have to learn to be like a parent to our anxiety and to any other emotions that are causing suffering.
And this is the whole purpose of meditation.
Meditation means learning to be present with your anxiety by focusing your mindful attention on that anxiety and then bringing in the qualities of fearlessness and love, which is the natural condition of your True Self.
You learn to comfort the anxiety, you learn to look at the structure of the anxiety and see how it works, and then you intervene in a way that helps that anxiety heal.
So building this internal relationship between your True Self and the anxiety or the Little Self is a vital process and it's very, very effective for healing anxiety. And I will teach you how to do this in detail.
Most people see quite dramatic changes when they start applying mindfulness and particularly this form of mindfulness meditation on the anxiety itself. Typically, you can expect to see dramatic improvements after the first three or four sessions. This is what we should be aiming for. Psychotherapy should be aimed at helping you heal. Just talking about your emotions is not sufficient, in my opinion, to promote efficient long-term healing. You must look at the underlying mechanism of that imagery and the patterns of reactivity and identification that feeds anxiety.
So if you would like to make real changes and produce long-term changes in your anxiety or other emotions that are affecting you in some way, then do please contact me and we can schedule some Skype therapy sessions. Thank you.

Mindfulness Meditation Therapy is one of the most successful psychotherapies available for overcoming anxiety disorders. It has elements of CBT but focuses much more on changing the actual process that creates anxiety and depression in the mind.
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional online therapist offering Mindfulness Therapy, which is my specialty and which I talk about in my book, "The Path of Mindfulness Meditation."
If you would like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety through mindfulness meditation, do please go to my website and learn more about this unique approach to overcoming anxiety.
Mindfulness Therapy is particularly effective for anxiety and also for depression, and this is because it teaches you how to change your relationship to your emotions and to your thoughts so that you don't become so easily overwhelmed by recurring patterns of emotional reactivity or intrusive thoughts.
This is the major problem that most people face - is what we often call "rumination" or "automatic reactive thinking" that triggers the underlying emotion of depression or anxiety.
Mindfulness allows us to break free from this automatic process by making it conscious. We begin to see the thoughts as triggers and the moment we see the process happening we can stop it right there and then through becoming conscious of that trigger.
With practice you can learn to see thoughts and emotional reactions as they arise in the mind, but then you are able to stop them turning into anxiety and depression. In this way, we take the fuel away from that underlying anxiety or depression. If you stop feeding the fire of anxiety or depression then the emotion will burn itself out and healing becomes possible.
During Mindfulness Therapy we learn how to actually meditate on our anxiety or depression or other painful emotions. And, it is through this process that you begin to change the whole process that creates the emotional suffering.
If you would like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety or depression using Mindfulness Therapy, please go to my website and CONTACT ME and then we can schedule a therapy session over Skype.
Mindfulness Therapy works really well through online Skype therapy sessions. So, please go to my website and contact me. Thank you!

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional online therapist, and I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy for overcoming anxiety and depression and other emotional problems.
If you would like to learn how to overcome General Anxiety Disorder, please learn more by visiting my website and contact me, tell me about yourself and about the anxiety that you are struggling with and ask any questions that you have about the online therapy process for treating anxiety.
Well, there are several approaches that we take during the online mindfulness therapy sessions, but the first most important thing that I teach you is to effectively change the way that you relate to your anxiety.
For most people suffering from anxiety there is a lot of fear of the anxiety. We react against the anxiety by creating a fear reaction and also an avoidance reaction. We try to avoid the anxiety and the anxiety-producing thoughts and situations at all costs. This is very counter-productive. You must not do that. You must not seek to avoid your anxiety.
What really makes the difference is when you actually change your relationship to your anxiety, when you actually embrace it with mindfulness.
Mindfulness is a combination of conscious awareness and a quality of acceptance and friendliness towards that anxiety. You have to make friends with it if you want it to change.
If you fight it, it simply gets stronger. You have to embrace your fears, your anxiety, your depression or any other form of emotional suffering if you really want them to change.
So, this is what I teach you during our Skype therapy sessions and it works extremely well. If you are suffering from general anxiety disorder you can expect to see significant changes after 3-4 sessions if you practice the mindfulness techniques that I will teach you.
So, if you are interested in learning more about Skype therapy for anxiety do please go to my website and learn more and then send me an email and we can schedule a Skype therapy session.
