Online Therapist for the Treatment of Anxiety via Skype

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy for the treatment of anxiety disorders. 

 So mindfulness is an extremely powerful form of conscious awareness that can really make all the difference if you're struggling with anxiety. 

 So I specialize in teaching mindfulness methods and techniques for overcoming anxiety and I do this online. So if you're interested in talking to an online therapist for anxiety then please contact me and schedule a few online therapy sessions. 

 The mindfulness approach, as I say, is very powerful indeed and what it fundamentally does is it breaks you out of those unconscious reactive habits that create your anxiety. 

 So anxiety is best described as a habit rather than some sort of medical disorder. I think that's the wrong approach if you want to overcome anxiety. If you want to just suppress symptoms then you might use a medical approach and ant anxiety medications. But that's not what I advocate, because it does not really address the underlying cause of your anxiety and that is these accumulated unconscious habits, psychological habits that create anxiety. 

And during Mindfulness Therapy we look very carefully at these inner habits. We actually learn how to meditate on our anxiety so we can examine it in great detail and see how it works. You look for the triggers, first of all. What are the specific triggers that trigger anxiety reactions? Then we look at what happens in the mind as we replay these triggers during our meditation. 

Typically most people see that what really gets triggered in the mind is imagery, some form of internal psychological imagery that has a strong emotional charge. That imagery is what really causes the anxiety. So the trigger triggers the imagery in the mind out of habit and that imagery then triggers the emotion. 

 So when we meditate on our anxiety we look for this imagery and the more that you see of the details of that imagery the more you can change, because when you see the imagery in the mind consciously, then you're able to change it, you are able to help that imagery change. 

For example, very commonly, people say to me that they feel overwhelmed by their anxiety. Well that tells me straightaway that the anxiety imagery is very large. It's also probably above you, it is high in your visual field, the way you see it and the mind. You don't see it on the floor, you see it above you. 

 Now it has to be above you to be overwhelming. It also has to be very large to be overwhelming. And by that same reasoning, it cannot be overwhelming if it is on the floor, and it cannot be overwhelming if you make it the size of a grain of sand. 

 So that imagery really defines our emotions. Typically we don't see that imagery because we don't look. Well, during Mindfulness Therapy we do look. We look very closely at the structure of our anxiety to see this imagery and then we explore changing it. We explore changing its size, its position, spatial position, perhaps its color, perhaps its texture. 

 Typically, when people look at the imagery of anxiety they will usually see red or orange colors. That seems to resonate with the feeling of fear or anxiety. If you are looking at the imagery of depression you would probably not see red or orange, but more likely black or grey or dark purple. Those are very common colors. Again those are part of the structure that creates the emotion. 

 Just because the emotion has a certain color or a certain size or position it does not mean that it has to stay in the configuration. It only shows up in that way because of habit. So when you bring mindfulness to that habit you bring choice and you can start to change the imagery, and when you change the imagery of anxiety you will diffuse the emotion; you will effectively neutralize it. And it is possible to then sit and examine those triggers, to bring them into the mind, and not experience anxiety. So that's all part of Mindfulness Therapy and that's what I teach online. And it works extremely well.

So if you want to get help from an online therapist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety using mindfulness, then please contact me and let us schedule some Skype Therapy sessions.

Online Therapy Sessions to Overcome Anxiety 

I welcome inquiries from people who are interested in working with me, learning how to apply mindfulness and mindfulness meditation (vipassana) for overcoming anxiety and depression and other forms of emotional suffering (called dukkha in Buddhist psychology).

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional online therapist and I specialize in mindfulness therapy for anxiety and depression. 

Overcoming anxiety through mindfulness is a very effective approach and it is often quite easy to get established in a practice where you learn how to apply mindfulness to overcome your anxiety or panic attacks and this is what I teach during online therapy sessions, which I offer via Skype. 

If you're interested in learning how to overcome anxiety or depression using mindfulness then please go to my website and send me an email and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have and to get started with mindfulness-based therapy. 

The most important thing we learn when we're applying mindfulness to overcome anxiety is to change our relationship to our anxiety and also to the thoughts that feed that anxiety. Typically people have a very unconscious relationship, a very habitual relationship with their anxiety. They tend to identify with it. They tend to react to it with avoidance or some form of aversion, self-criticism, self-hatred for having anxiety. These kind of reactions, these habitual forms of reactivity, have the undesired effect of strengthening the anxiety. 

So to overcome anxiety you need to change your relationship to these emotions and to the thoughts that support these emotions, and we learn how to do that during mindfulness training. We learn how to sit with our emotions and with our thoughts without reacting. That is the key first principle of mindfulness therapy and training. 

We actually learn how to meditate on our anxiety and this is what makes the difference. When you learn to develop a non-reactive relationship with your emotions, that effectively creates the right conditions whereby they start to heal. 

But we take it further than that because mindfulness is not just about becoming more aware and less reactive. It's also about developing a level of friendliness or love towards your own emotions and thoughts. Love is a very powerful healing force and when you can actually make friends with your emotions then you will increase the rate of healing by a huge factor. 

So if you're interested in learning more about how to apply mindfulness and mindfulness meditation for healing anxiety or depression, for overcoming painful emotions, then please go to my website and send me an email and we can schedule a therapy session via Skype, in which I will teach you how to work with your emotions using mindfulness. Thank you.

Online Counseling Sessions to Overcome Anxiety Disorders 

Online Psychotherapy for Anxiety over 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 Mindfulness Therapy for Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Medications may provide temporary relief from the intense emotional and physical symptoms of anxiety and panic attacks but medications do very little to change the underlying psychological cause of your anxiety. That underlying cause is mostly a product of unresolved emotional trauma and habitual reactive thinking that feeds the anxiety. We must change these causes to successfully recover from anxiety and panic attacks as well as depression and other forms of emotional suffering.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional psychotherapist based in Colorado and I specialize in mindfulness therapy which I offer online for the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, addictions, and PTSD (that's one of my particular interests) and many other psychological emotional-problems that are caused by reactive habitual thinking or unresolved emotional trauma. 

If you would like to learn how to overcome anxiety and panic attacks through online therapy and you would like to learn how to overcome anxiety disorders without using medications, then please go to my website and learn more about online mindfulness therapy. In my opinion this is one of the most effective ways of treating anxiety without using medication. 

It works on changing the underlying cause of your anxiety and panic attacks, as well as depression or other emotional conditions. That underlying cause is what needs to be transformed and healed if you want to really recover from anxiety or panic attacks. 

Medications don't treat anxiety and panic attacks. They only relieve symptoms and that symptom relief is short term. It's just a bandaid. It's not really changing the underlying psychological cause of your anxiety or panic attacks. 

So, in mindfulness therapy we recognize that the key to overcoming any emotional suffering is to actually develop a conscious and friendly relationship with your emotional pain. Your biggest enemies are avoidance and aversion. When there is avoidance, that basically causes the anxiety to get bigger. When there is aversion, that causes you to get smaller in relationship to your anxiety. 

So this is why we understand in mindfulness teachings the importance of friendliness or love, because when you relate to emotional suffering with love you get bigger and the emotion gets smaller, it actually starts to heal itself, when that relationship is well established. 

So, the path to healing anxiety and panic attacks, also depression and other forms of emotional trauma, is to build a very strong friendly and non-reactive relationship with those underlying emotions. When you do that you create the right internal conditions that promote healing, and that healing is a natural process that is built in to the anxiety or the depression. It is already trying to heal itself to come back to equilibrium. Unfortunately we tend to get in the way of the natural healing through reactivity such as avoidance and aversion. 

So, if you'd like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety and panic attacks without medication, please go to my website and then email me and let's schedule a Skype Therapy session, and you will see for yourself just how effective mindfulness therapy can be for healing anxiety and depression. Thank you.
