Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional online therapist and I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders. So if you're looking for an online therapist for anxiety and then I encourage you to go to my website and learn more about this online therapy service for treating anxiety that I offer via Skype or Zoom.
It's very easy to get started. All you need is an internet connection and Skype and PayPal to make your secure online payments for sessions and then you can get the kind of help that you need.
So I specialize in mindfulness therapy for treating anxiety disorders and mindfulness therapy is immensely effective because it teaches you how to break free from the underlying habitual reactivity that really is the foundation of anxiety.
Whether that's generalized anxiety disorder or social anxiety disorder or if you suffer from panic attacks or if you are suffering from agoraphobia or any other kind of phobia or even even if you're struggling with driving anxiety, all forms of anxiety are essentially psychological habits. We learn them over time, often they get started in childhood because a child is not very skilled at processing intense emotions, whether those are traumatic emotions or intense fear based emotions. Whatever kind of emotion they might be, it's very difficult for a child processes so it tends to get stuck, essentially, and get suppressed and pushed down in the mind and it becomes a source of emotional energy that feeds emotional reactivity later in life.
So that's how anxiety disorders typically get started. But we don't have to go back to childhood to change our anxiety disorder. We can't change the past but we can change the present and that is where we look at the actual psychological habit that's getting triggered right now. How it actually works right now in your present existence, how does that work. What other kind of reactive thoughts that proliferate around that anxiety and that feed it? What other emotional reactions are associated with the anxiety and that feed it, and so on.
We need to uncover the actual structure of your anxiety, how it really works. And mindfulness is the best tool available for doing this. So during the sessions I will teach you how to use mindfulness, how to apply mindfulness to work with your anxiety. And basically what we are learning to do is just take it out of that unconscious habit mode and put it into a conscious space. We do this by actively meditating on our anxiety.
Trying to avoid your anxiety, trying run away from it and suppressing it is not going to help it heal. It actually ends up feeding the anxiety. But when you bring conscious mindful attention to your anxiety then you are creating the perfect conditions to help that anxiety heal and dissolve itself now, no matter what the cause was historically.
So we build a conscious relationship with our anxiety. We also build a friendly compassionate relationship with that anxiety. So anxiety is very much like a child. It's stuck. It doesn't know how to heal itself. It requires its parent to do that because its parent has more resources, more consciousness, and a larger perspective to come and comfort the child and allow the child to heal its anxiety by providing a safe and conscious and loving space.
This is what we need to do with our anxiety. When you create that kind of relationship with it then that violence will heal. This has been proven over and over again. I have worked with hundreds of clients now and in every case this is what really makes the difference. When they stop running away from their anxiety and instead turn toward it and actually learn to meditate on the anxiety. This is what makes the difference.
If you'd like to learn more about how to apply mindfulness for healing anxiety and you would like to talk to an online therapist for help with your anxiety, then please contact me and tell me more about how anxiety is affecting you and I will be happy to explain to you in more detail how mindfulness therapy can work for you.
Most people see tremendous changes within three to four sessions. It's quite surprising how effective mindfulness therapy can be. So please contact me if you would like to get started.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy, which I offer online via Skype for the treatment of anxiety and depression, addictions and many other common psychological-emotional problems that really respond well to mindfulness training.
So if you're looking for an online therapist to provide you with effective techniques for working with your anxiety and reducing it and eliminating your anxiety, then please reach out to me. Simply e-mail me. Tell me more about yourself and the particular problems that you're struggling with and ask any questions you may have about online mindfulness therapy.
So seeing a therapist online is a very good choice for most people, especially if you use Skype so that you can see each other, then really, there's no difference at all in my experience between online therapy or seeing a therapist in person.
So how do we apply mindfulness for working with anxiety? Well there are lots of different aspects to this, but the first most important thing to understand is that anxiety is a habit. It's something that got established early on in your life and it became habitual, which means that it operates out of consciousness.
So the first aspect of recovery from any kind of anxiety condition is developing more consciousness and that is exactly what mindfulness is all about. It's developing an awakened consciousness to see your anxiety clearly as it is without reacting to it, without becoming lost in the constellation of reactive thoughts and beliefs and emotional reactions that make up the structure of anxiety.
We practice seeing all of these components clearly and without becoming unconscious, without becoming reactive. When you react you essentially lose consciousness and you become controlled by that habit reaction. So this is the first necessary condition for healing anxiety: developing more consciousness.
The second part of mindfulness training, and I will teach you how to do this, is to develop compassion and friendliness towards your anxiety and other emotions that make up that anxiety. The friendliness component is an essential ingredient of mindfulness. If it does not have compassion or love within it then it is not mindfulness. It may be awareness but it's certainly not mindfulness. Mindfulness must have this. There's this added quality of friendliness and compassion.
So we learn to cultivate compassion towards our anxiety and, of course, that is precisely what the anxiety or fear needs. It needs to reconnect with that bigger part of you that can provide love and compassion. Anxiety typically gets started when those mental formations become disconnected from your True Self. When they become isolated and cut off from your True Self, that's what allows them to proliferate and that prevents them from healing.
So if this interests you if you are interested in talking to an online therapist who specializes in mindfulness therapy for anxiety then do please reach out to me by email.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder Colorado and I offer online psychotherapy for anxiety via Skype and Zoom.
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.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder, Colorado. I offer online therapy over Skype for working with anxiety and depression, addictions and many other common psychological problems that really benefit from the methods of Mindfulness Therapy, which is what I teach.
So people ask me all the time. Is it becoming more common now to do online therapy for anxiety or depression? And it is. More and more therapists are now offering online therapy because it makes it more available. And that's a great advantage. It gives you more choice to as a client. You can search online for the right therapist that you feel comfortable with and also to find someone who offers the right approach that resonates with you and your particular needs.
So online therapy is a very good option if you're looking for a non-medical treatment. And most people don't need medical treatment for their anxiety; they simply need to learn more effective ways of working with their anxiety and other emotions associated with anxiety.
So Mindfulness Therapy is one such approach and it is very effective indeed for really helping you heal the anxiety, changing the underlying cause of your anxiety, breaking free from that pattern of habitual reactivity that causes your anxiety.
Mindfulness training brings more and more consciousness to your anxiety so you see it more clearly, and when you can see it more clearly you're much more able to break free from those habitual reactive patterns which, of course, operate out of consciousness as all habits do.
So the first step in the Mindfulness Therapy approach is to develop a conscious relationship with your anxiety. Learning to see it more clearly and learning to break free from the reactivity that gets triggered in response to that anxiety.
So this is the first step, learning to see your anxiety clearly and then the second step is really responding to your anxiety with compassion and friendliness and the very qualities of mind that anxiety needs to heal. It cannot heal if we avoid it and it cannot heal if we react with hatred towards our anxiety and it cannot heal if we simply become lost in those habitual patterns of reactivity. But once we start developing a compassionate relationship with the emotion, itself, then we can greatly accelerate the rate of healing and recovery and resolution and freedom from these anxiety-producing habits.
So that's the main focus of Mindfulness Therapy and it is very effective and most of my clients see quite traumatic changes and improvements and reduction in the level of anxiety that they experience after the first three or four weeks working with me.
I see people once a week usually for about 60 minutes each session, that's usually sufficient. I don't believe you can do effective therapy under 60 Minutes. Sometimes I go to 90 minutes. It depends.
The focus of the online therapy that I offer is to work with your anxiety and actually do practical mindfulness work and exercises, including mindfulness meditation, during those sessions. The goal is to teach you methods that you can use yourself so that you don't become dependent on a therapist.
So if you would like to learn more about online therapy for anxiety, do please contact me and we can schedule a trial therapy session via Skype and you can see for yourself just how effective Mindfulness Therapy can be for allowing you to break free from the habits of anxiety. Thank you!
