Everyone that I have worked with really likes the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"Before my sessions with Dr Peter Strong, I suffered from depression. No matter what I tried, I got nowhere. It was like running around in a circle, I felt trapped.
In the first session, I found out my main problem; resisting and avoiding emotions. A few sessions later, I clearly noticed the difference in me. By mindfully accepting negative feelings, they are released and eventually replaced by positive ones.
I am a happier person now and have achieved much more in life. Enjoying life to the fullest!
Thank you Peter…"

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional mindfulness-based psychotherapist, and I offer online therapy for the treatment of anxiety disorders.
It's very convenient for you to work with an online therapist to get the treatment that you need to help you overcome your anxiety disorder. Many people with anxiety disorders really don't like going to see a therapist in person. They find it rather intimidating.
And also many people don't like taking medications. Anti-anxiety medications like Xanax may provide some temporary relief from symptoms but medications do nothing at all to correct the underlying psychological process that causes your anxiety.
So there are many different types of anxiety disorder that we can treat using Mindfulness Therapy. The most common type is called Generalized Anxiety Disorder, which really describes a condition of habitual reactive thinking and rumination, catastrophizing, excessive worrying. It's often described as being lost in negative thoughts.
Another type of anxiety disorder that I work with quite a lot is Social Anxiety Disorder, and also it's more severe form as agoraphobia. Social Anxiety Disorder is characterized by excessive fear of what people might be thinking about you. It's difficulty and hyper self-consciousness in social situations. It also describes difficulty in going into crowded areas and so on.
Agoraphobia, of course, describes a condition where a person is really really scared of leaving what we might call a secure area, like home. It's very difficult to go beyond certain comfort boundaries. And that's usually characterized by severe panic attacks.
So Panic disorder is another kind of anxiety disorder that I work with. This describes a very severe emotional contraction, a very intense form of anxiety that is often triggered by specific events or thoughts or situations.
Another type of anxiety disorder is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. And that is characterized, yet again, by habitual reactive thoughts or intrusive thoughts that have a very high emotional charge. And because of the high emotional charge, they keep repeating themselves and it's very difficult to let go of those kind of intrusive thoughts.
So whatever kind of anxiety disorder you have, Mindfulness Therapy is one of the best approaches available for working with these habitual reactive thoughts.
During our sessions I will teach you how to apply mindfulness to work with your particular anxiety disorder, which means learning how to work with these thoughts.
Now thoughts do not create anxiety. That is a common misconception, but they do fuel anxiety that is preexisting. So anxiety creates reactive thoughts, where the reactive thoughts then feed the anxiety and so you get this positive feedback loop that maintains that anxiety and prevents it from resolving and healing.
During Mindfulness Therapy we learn how to change the way we react to the anxiety. We change the way we relate to the anxiety thoughts. We learn to hold them in our conscious awareness without becoming identified with thoughts, without becoming lost in the stream of reactive thinking that feeds the anxiety. And this is one of the most important first parts of the training that I will teach you: how to sit with your thoughts without becoming overwhelmed by them.
And the second part of Mindfulness Therapy is learning how to resolve the underlying anxiety itself. The anxiety is what feeds those thoughts and gives them that emotional charge that causes them to persist and proliferate. And this we do by a variety of methods. But mostly we can describe this as establishing a non-reactive and compassionate relationship with that underlying anxiety. This is what promotes resolution of the anxiety. And once you heal the underlying emotion then the reactive thinking subsides quite naturally.
Contact me through the contact form and let's schedule a session. All therapy sessions are offered by Skype and we can schedule a Skype Therapy Service session to help you work with your anxiety to free yourself from the crippling effects of anxiety disorders without the use of medications or years of analytical type psychotherapy.

If you would like to see a therapist online for help with anxiety, I invite you to contact me and tell me more about yourself and how I can help you, and then we can schedule a session via Skype to help you overcome your anxiety.
So many people, these days, really like the convenience of online therapy for their anxiety. It's much easier and it's also just as effective, as long as you use a video platform like Skype.
If you can see each other, then the effectiveness of communication is just as good as it is seeing a therapist in person.
So if you'd like to see an online therapist for help with generalized anxiety disorder or social anxiety disorder or OCD or for agoraphobia or any other form of anxiety, then please email me and we can schedule a session at a time that works for you.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer via Skype is called Mindfulness Therapy and this is particularly effective for anxiety.
Basically during the online sessions, I will teach you how to apply mindfulness for working with your anxiety, for neutralizing those anxiety reactions that have become habitual.
We do this by actually learning how to meditate on our emotions and our thoughts using mindfulness meditation, where we make the emotion the central focus of your meditation.
We learn how to build a relationship with your emotions whereby you do not react or identify with those emotions, but are able to sit with the emotion in very much the same way that you would be able to sit with a child that was in pain.
In order to be comforting to the child and help the child you need to be able to sit with the child without becoming reactive, and that the first stage of mindfulness training. We call this developing equanimity, which simply means that you can sit with your emotions without becoming reactive, in that same way.
When you can do that then you can respond to the anxiety, or other emotions that you have detected that feed that anxiety, in a way that helps them heal.
So the first step is not making the anxiety worse by reacting to it. The second stage is learning how to respond to your anxiety with compassion, how to help that anxiety heal, and one of the primary ways we do this is by building that very relationship itself, the relationship between your True Self. And the emotion, which we often call the Little Self.
When that anxiety feels the presence of your True Self then that facilitates the healing and resolution of that anxiety. In most cases the real reason why the anxiety does not heal is because it becomes isolated from your True Self. And that is similar to the situation in which a child is abandoned and isolated from its parents. It needs its parents in order to overcome its own fear and to grow in a healthy way.
And so it is with our emotions. Typically they become isolated and cut off from our True Self, and this prevents them healing.
So during mindfulness meditation we strive to re-establish this relationship between your True Self, the Observer, and the emotion itself. This is the first stage of mindfulness therapy for anxiety. And there are many other aspects of Mindfulness Therapy for anxiety, which you can learn about by spending more time on my website and reading more of the pages there and watching more of the videos on my website.
But if you'd like to get started with me and see for yourself just how effective online Mindfulness Therapy is for treating anxiety, then simply email me and we can schedule is Skype Therapy session for your anxiety.
Most people see results within the first three to four sessions. The mindfulness approach is extremely effective for treating anxiety.
So if you'd like to see an online therapist for help with your anxiety and you like the mindfulness approach that I am specialized in and teach you during the online therapy sessions, then simply reach out to me via email and schedule an online therapy session. 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!

I offer Skype counseling for help with anxiety and depression and other emotional problems. The best form of therapy is going to be involved in helping you learn how to manage your emotions more effectively, and we do this by developing a conscious mindful relationship with our emotional habits whether this is anxiety or depression or OCD or anger or the compulsive impulses behind an addiction. Whatever the emotional habits we need to develop very conscious relationship with that part of ourselves. This is how you fundamentally change that habit.
You cannot change a habit by avoiding it; you can't change a habit by fighting it or resisting it or trying to suppress it. The only way to change emotional habits like anxiety is by actually coming into relationship with that habit, seeing it like an object within yourself. This conscious relationship is what we describe as mindfulness. It is learning to be present with your emotions, learning to be present with your anxiety or depression or other emotion. When you do this you begin to essentially disengage from that
reactive habit and this allows the habit to change itself.
All emotional habits, all forms of emotional suffering are fundamentally trying to change themselves. They are trying to heal and return to a state of balance. This is a natural property of the mind, the psyche, in the same way that it is a natural property of the body. If the body is injured it begins a process of
healing and there's a natural intelligence in the body that guides that process of healing and the process of healing is a process of returning from a state of imbalance to a state of balance again. That same mechanism, that same intelligence operates within the psyche as well.
It's only when we become blind to that natural healing within us that emotional problems like anxiety and depression persist. In order for an emotional habit to change we have to develop consciousness. It needs consciousness to change and that's what we bring to our emotional habits when we meditate on them using mindfulness and I will teach you how to do this.
I will teach you how to form a conscious relationship with your emotions that facilitates their healing and change. It is not difficult and most people will see very dramatic changes within three to four sessions all online therapy via Skype.
So, if you're interested in Skype counseling and you'd like to learn more about this approach to changing anxiety or depression or any other emotional suffering that we experience, simply contact me - send me an email, ask your questions and then let's schedule a Skype counseling session. This is the best way to produce real lasting change. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!
