Therapy over Skype – The Mindfulness Therapy Approach

Learn how to eliminate anxiety or depression. Speak to a Psychotherapist Online using Skype for highly effective online psychotherapy for Anxiety Disorders and Depression, Social Anxiety Disorder and Agoraphobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Addictions, Post-traumatic stress or any psychological problems that do not require medical treatment. 

Welcome. I provide therapy over Skype for managing anxiety and also for managing panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorder and other forms of anxiety disorder. 

During the online therapy sessions I will teach you mindfulness methods that are proven and very effective indeed, for breaking down the underlying structure of the habit that creates anxiety. 

Basically, during mindfulness training I will teach you how to form a stable, conscious relationship with your emotions and with your thoughts so that they don't control you, that you can get on top of those thoughts and emotions and be like an observer observing them, but without becoming reactive, without becoming swept away by them. 

This is a central theme in all mindfulness training and it is extremely important if you want to overcome and successfully manage anxiety or depression. You must learn how to break free from the habit of becoming reactive. That's the central focus in successful psychotherapy for anxiety and panic attacks and depression, as well.

Looking for therapy over Skype?

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I provide Mindfulness Therapy over Skype. I have been teaching Mindfulness Therapy for 12 years now and I find it to be extremely effective for working with anxiety and also depression and addictions and many of the common psychological and emotional problems that we experience in life. 

The mindfulness approach is extremely good for working with the mind, with emotions and with thoughts and with traumatic memories also. We learn how to develop a mindful, conscious relationship with our mind. That means we learn how to meditate on the mind. Most people are not used to this approach. They try to either get away from the mind. They may even use meditation to escape the mind, but this is in my opinion the wrong approach. 

We should be learning how to change the relationship that we have with the mind. If you avoid painful emotions or painful thoughts or painful memories then that will basically feed the emotional pain and it will not heal. So avoidance is not a good strategy. And really, any form of reactivity that takes consciousness away from the mind is going to simply leave those emotional reactive habits intact. It will not promote healing. So mindfulness is about developing more consciousness of the mind, not less. 

We do this by meditating on our thoughts, on our emotions, on our memories, on anything that is in a state of suffering, is not resolved properly. So we hold our emotions in the mind. We learn how to build a relationship that is non-reactive and fully present with the emotions or thoughts or memories. 

This is what promotes change and healing: the quality of that non-reactive relationship. Reactivity, whether it's avoidance or aversion or whether it's even just talking about the emotion or labeling it or judging it in some way. 

Any form of reactivity like that will simply feed the underlying habits and will stop it changing. But when you do the opposite, that is cultivate a conscious, mindful relationship with the emotion or other mental objects, then that allows healing to take place. 

It's rather like being by a fire. The nature of the fire is to burn itself out. That is its natural path. But we inadvertently feed the fire by throwing fuel on it. Well reactivity is like that fuel, it feeds the fire of anxiety or depression or any other form of emotional suffering. So the first step in mindfulness training is learning how to overcome that habit of reactivity to our emotional pain whether that's anxiety or depression. 

The second part of mindfulness training is to investigate the structure of your emotions. So this means looking at the imagery of the emotion. What color is it? How large is it? Is it large or small? What is the position of the emotion? How do you see it in the mind? Do you see it above you and does it feel overwhelming? Does it weigh heavily on you? People often experience painful emotions rather like a weight or something heavy weighing down on them. 

What color is it? Very important. Most people, when they look at an emotion like anger, they will see the color red. Depression has the color black, and so on. These colors are all part of the imagery. Now that imagery is what actually creates the emotion. It's what holds it together. So investigating the imagery of our emotions is very important. And when we change that imagery we help the emotion heal. 

So there is a direct relationship between the emotion and the emotional imagery. And when you change one, you change the other. So that is described as the response of compassion, which is a strong part of Mindfulness Therapy. It is not sufficient to just see the emotion and not react to it. We must respond by helping it heal and we do that by changing his imagery. 

So Mindfulness Therapy is an interesting, exciting and really quite novel approach for most people. People really enjoy working with their mind in this way, actually getting to see how their mind works and then developing those skills that promote healing and wellbeing. 

Because it's so focused, Mindfulness Therapy is usually very, very quick at producing substantial changes and improvements. Most people see quite remarkable improvements after just three or four Skype Therapy sessions with me.
