Everyone that I have worked with really likes the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"Working with Peter and developing mindfulness has been instrumental in helping me break from my habitual mental suffering. His form of therapy is effective for many reasons, but primarily I think it's because Peter works with you to help you discover the truth of your suffering for yourself, rather than judging you or telling you - his presence is always calm and kind, and provides a great atmosphere for healing.”
During these Skype sessions I will teach you how to apply mindfulness, including mindfulness meditation for recovering from all forms of anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, persistent depression, and for help with and other emotional problems, by applying the very successful methods of Mindfulness Therapy.
This approach is very effective and most of my clients/students notice tangible improvements after 3-4 Skype sessions with me.
Online Mindfulness-based Skype Psychotherapy is highly effective for managing anxiety and depression without relying on medications. It is far better to treat the root cause of your emotional pain rather than just treating symptoms.

Do you need an online therapist for anxiety? Would you like to talk to a therapist online to get help with your anxiety? Then please go to my website and learn more about this online therapy service that I offer via Skype.
So I specialize in mindfulness therapy for the treatment of all kinds of anxiety disorders, ranging from generalized anxiety disorder to social anxiety disorder including agoraphobia. I work a lot with obsessive compulsive disorder and in general the mindfulness approach is particularly effective for producing changes in quite a short time and typically people see substantial improvements after the first two to three sessions with me.
And this is because we focus on really changing the underlying process that causes your anxiety. This is quite different than conventional talk therapy or counseling. And it's certainly different than medical approaches that advocate the use of medications. I do not recommend medications for the treatment of anxiety disorders because medications do not treat the underlying condition. They do not change the underlying process that creates anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy does. It helps you change that underlying habitual process that produces anxiety and that underlying process is psychological in nature. It is basically a psychological habit.
So anxiety is primarily a habit. We learn anxiety, we are not born with anxiety. It is not developed out of nothing. It is a habit that is learned. We learn these habits quite naturally when we are exposed to emotional trauma, particularly in childhood that we're unable to process. When that's emotional trauma becomes stuck in the mind of suppressed then it becomes the seed that leads to the development of anxiety disorders.
However you don't have to go back to childhood to try and change emotional trauma in order to recover from anxiety disorders that you might be experiencing now. Whatever the cause of that habit, however it got established the place to change the habit is right now as it manifests itself in your present situation.
So Mindfulness Therapy allows you to change anxiety habits. And them the most important way that we go about changing the anxiety habit is by changing the quality of relationship that we have with our anxiety and other emotions.
So classically, the anxiety habit is sustained by levels of habitual reactivity to that anxiety. The habitual reactivity simply feeds the anxiety. And what is the main kind of reactivity that we encounter? It is primarily the reactive habit of avoidance and the reactive habit of aversion or hatred towards that anxiety.
If you react to your anxiety with either avoidance or aversion then you basically feed that anxiety and you prevent it from changing. So reactivity stops anxiety changing and it prevents that anxiety habit from changing.
So in mindfulness therapy we overcome this habit of reactivity to our anxiety or other painful emotional habits. We learn to develop a conscious and friendly relationship to our anxiety. This is the key method that produces change and allows the anxiety habit to resolve itself and become replaced by more positive emotional habits. So if you don't react to your fear or anxiety you don't feed it. So we learn to hold the anxiety in conscious mindful awareness without reacting to it. We put the emotion in neutral, in effect.
So we do this by meditating on our anxiety, or any other emotion for that matter. We hold it in awareness deliberately and learn how to sit with with that anxiety without becoming reactive, without becoming identified with it.
When we can do this then we effectively neutralize the anxiety. It takes a little bit of training, but not very much. It is quite surprising how quickly you can overcome the anxiety habit like any other habit when you start applying consciousness, when you start really sitting with your emotions without reacting to them. When you can do that then the habit starts to lose strength and begins to burn itself out.
So if you would like to get started with me with online therapy for anxiety and you like the idea of working with an online therapist like myself who specializes in mindfulness therapy, then please contact me and lets schedule an online therapy session.

Standard counseling can be beneficial, but often common talk therapy does not alter the underlying psychological process that is the real cause of your depression or anxiety.
This also applies to the use of medications - the antidepressant may provide a temporary relief from symptoms for a while, but medications are not going to change the underlying process that produces the emotional pain.
The type of psychotherapy that I teach online is known as Mindfulness Therapy, which can be quite powerful for overcoming anxiety as well as for treating chronic depression or other emotional problems resulting from conditioned negative thinking. Most people see significant reduction in the level of anxiety and depression after the first couple of sessions of Mindfulness Therapy.
Online Therapist for Anxiety Disorders
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I provide online therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression, OCD and many other common emotional psychological problems. As an online therapist for anxiety I specialize in teaching mindfulness skills for managing the anxiety and the reactive thinking that supports the anxiety.
Mindfulness therapy is extremely effective for helping you break free from those automatic habitual patterns of reactive thinking that fuel anxiety and panic attacks and other anxiety disorders. When we learn how to apply mindfulness we actually learn to sit with our emotions, we learn to meditate on our emotions. So, I will teach you exactly how to do this, how to sit with your anxiety, how to meditate on your anxiety, without becoming overwhelmed by it and without becoming reactive. This is the essential training that's needed to change the habits of reactive anxiety.
The real problem is that we simply are not conscious of this habit of becoming caught up in reactive thinking we get lost in patterns of worrying, of rumination and excessive thinking, which simply feeds the anxiety. But with mindfulness training you learn how to become an observer. You learn how to sit with the emotions and with the thoughts without becoming lost in them, without becoming overwhelmed by them, without becoming essentially controlled by your emotions or your thoughts. This process it isn't quite easy to learn if you get good guidance. You have to learn how to meditate on your emotions. Common mindfulness meditation practices usually involve meditating on the breath and this is a good relaxation exercise, but it will not really help you with your anxiety.
You have to meditate on the cause of your anxiety, which is your relationship to your emotions and your thoughts. If that relationship is unconscious then your emotions and thoughts will govern you, you will be controlled by them. They'll be little choice.
But once you start to develop more consciousness around the anxiety and the thoughts then you begin to break free from them. You begin to neutralize the effects of emotions and thoughts on you.

How to overcome anxiety without depending on anti-anxiety medications
Online Psychotherapy for Anxiety by Skype
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder Colorado and I offer online psychotherapy for anxiety via Skype.
So if you're interested in learning more about online therapy for treating anxiety disorders, whether that's generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, or if you have a problem with recurrent panic attacks, or if you suffer from driving anxiety disorder or a phobia in general, then please go to my website and learn more about this online psychotherapy service that I offer.
If you're interested in online psychotherapy you should check that the therapist is able to provide sessions via Skype. I believe it's essential that you are able to see each other as well as speak to each other, because this greatly improves the effectiveness of communication. And that's a very important fact when you're working with difficult emotional conditions like anxiety and panic attacks or depression, or even for work with addiction.
Many people like online therapy because it's clearly more convenient. And if you're living abroad or in a rural area you might find it difficult to find a local therapist that you want to work with.
People like the greater privacy also offered by online psychotherapy. It means that you can conduct your sessions from home and in the privacy of your own environment. And that's quite important for a lot of people. Sometimes we feel uncomfortable talking about our emotional problems. If it's an addiction it's often very difficult to talk about that in a more public setting. Being able to talk about your anxiety online is much less intimidating for most people. So that's one of one of the additional benefits of online therapy via Skype.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer online is called mindfulness therapy and this is a particular approach that I developed many years ago now that has proven to be incredibly effective for helping people manage anxiety disorders.
It's a technique that uses mindfulness. Mindfulness is simply a way of focusing conscious attention on emotions and on thoughts and memories and other components of the mind. It's a way of becoming conscious without becoming overwhelmed or consumed or lost in anxiety or depression or any other emotional formation.
We have to build a conscious relationship with our emotions. That is an absolute requirement for them to change, in my opinion. Talking about your anxiety can provide temporary relief but it's seldom as good as actually building an internal relationship with your anxiety in which you spend more time, if you like, listening to it rather than reacting to it or trying to explain it away or trying to understand it. All of these forms of cognitive processing are really taking you away from the emotion itself.
We create a safe space around our anxiety and we begin to explore how that anxiety works. One of the most important things we first focus on is the constellation of reactive thoughts that feeds that anxiety.
So anxiety tends to lead to proliferation of anxiety-based thinking. And this in turn feeds the underlying anxiety and creates this vicious feedback loop that stops the anxiety healing. So the first part of mindfulness is all about learning to see these reactive thoughts and breaking the unconscious habits of becoming lost in those thoughts. So we're not indulging the anxiety. Instead with simply creating a conscious and non-reactive relationship with it.
The second thing that we focus on in great detail during Mindfulness Therapy is looking at the internal imagery of the emotion. And this might be a new concept to you, but if you think about it you will begin to realize that all emotions are based around imagery.
So if you'd like to learn more about online psychotherapy via Skype for your anxiety do please email me and tell me more about how I can help you. And then when you feel ready we can schedule a session.
You will see in the very first session just how powerful this approach can be and most people see changes after the very first session, when you start applying the mindfulness methods that I'll teach you on how to work with your anxiety.
So please contact me if you'd like to get started.

Online Therapy for Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Colorado and I offer online therapy for anxiety via Skype. People like the convenience of online therapy, and it is generally a very much more comfortable and less clinical way of approaching anxiety and learning how to manage anxiety and overcome anxiety.
The focus of the approach that I take, which is called Mindfulness Therapy, is about giving you the tools to manage and overcome your anxiety. This is not a treatment-based approach. Treatments are not good for working with anxiety or depression.
Medications are a form of treatment and I do not recommend them either because they do not empower you. They do not give you the tools to overcome the root cause of your anxiety or depression.
You have to look at the underlying psychological cause which consists of reactive habits such as habitual reactive thinking. That's one of the primary causes of our anxiety and depression. We become blindly identified with reactive thoughts and beliefs that end up feeding our anxiety and depression.
So overcoming reactivity is central, and medications or treatment-based approaches are not going to do that. You have to do that yourself by developing more conscious awareness of these underlying habitual processes, and that is the focus of Mindfulness Therapy.
So I offer therapy by Skype and it is really important that you use Skype or a similar video format. You need to be able to see each other, but if you can't see each other, then Skype therapy is just as effective as meeting a therapist in person.
You don't need to be in the same room as the therapist, but you do need to see each other for effective psychotherapy.
If you would like to learn more about online therapy for anxiety using Skype, then do please contact me and ask any questions that you may have. Tell me what you have tried so far. Tell me more about your particular anxiety disorder. And I am happy to answer any questions you have.
The mindfulness approach is very, very effective if you are interested in healing your anxiety. If you're interested in really changing things at the deep level, the core level rather than just treating symptoms.
One of the most important first principles that you'll be learning is how to break free from reactive identification. This is the root cause of the problem. It's more important than thoughts or beliefs or memories or the emotional reactions themselves.
The real issue is that we become blindly identified with thoughts and beliefs, emotional reactions and and so on. We become identified, we become blindly attached to these objects in the mind, basically, which is how we describe thoughts and emotions and memories. They are objects that arise in the mind due to certain conditions that trigger them. They exist in the mind for a while and then they usually pass through. But when we become reactive, that stops them healing. It stops the emotions from resolving themselves.
As objects they have no power at all to cause your anxiety. It's only when you identify with those thoughts and emotions that they then gain power and cause you to suffer.
So developing independence or objectivity or objective consciousness is central. And we do this by learning how to meditate on our mind.
So mindfulness meditation, which is what I teach and is the core methodology for healing anxiety and depression involves meditating on those emotions and building this different relationship where you are the observer, instead of just becoming overwhelmed and lost in the stream of reactive thinking and rumination.
So developing that objective relationship to your thoughts and emotions is is vital. It is an absolute step that's required for healing. And it takes training. And the way we train is by meditating on the mind.
Meditation is not an escape from the mind. It's a way of changing your relationship to the mind so that you are not controlled by thoughts and emotions and beliefs and memories and so on.
So that is the first step. We call this the liberating effect of mindfulness. You learn how to meditate on your thoughts and emotions to achieve freedom, then the healing really starts to accelerate once that relationship is well established.
