Skype Therapy - Mindfulness Therapy via Skype

The primary focus of Mindfulness Therapy is to treat the root psychological cause of your anxiety, depression, OCD, addiction, stress, PTSD and emotional trauma and other forms of emotional suffering rather than just trying to manage symptoms through medication.

Mindfulness Therapy is a form of Buddhist Psychotherapy based on the teachings of Buddhist Psychology, which focuses on teaching you how to change the relationship that you have with your mind, your thoughts, beliefs, memories, and especially your emotions. The primary goal is to cultivate freedom in relationship to your mind instead of trying to control and "fix" the mind.

Mindfulness is a special form of consciousness, characterized by direct awareness and non-reactivity (equanimity, upekkha), love (metta), compassion (karuna) and joy (mudita). Mindfulness Therapy focuses on applying these qualities to promote healing of emotional suffering (dukha) and to enhance wellbeing and happiness within and without, in your mind and in your personal and societal relationships.

Everyone can benefit from developing greater kindness and compassion toward the mind and the inner emotional pain that causes suffering. When that inner relationship is right, then it purifies our outer relationships, too. Happiness within = happiness without.

I offer Mindfulness Therapy online via Skype or Zoom to make these extraordinary teachings available to anyone, anywhere.

Almost everyone who seeks my help has already tried conventional counseling. This may be excellent for treating acute emotional problems, but most people tell me that it is seldom sufficient to overcome chronic anxiety or depression. Most of my clients have tried prescription medications and are looking for an alternative approach, a more holistic approach that focuses on healing rather than just treating symptoms.

Mindfulness Therapy (Skype Therapy) focuses on teaching you how to work with your mind, giving you practical tools that you can apply yourself to promote healing and wellbeing. In this way it is quite different from the treatment-based approaches of clinical psychotherapy.

Everyone I have worked with really benefits from the Mindfulness Therapy approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…

Skype Therapy - Buddhist Psychotherapy over Skype

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder, Colorado and I offer Skype therapy, that is psychotherapy over Skype for help with anxiety disorders including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, OCD, driving anxiety, and many other forms of anxiety disorders that respond well to Mindfulness Therapy.

Mindfulness Therapy has proven to be incredibly effective for the treatment of both anxiety and depression. It works by getting at the root cause of anxiety and depression. So it's really quite different than conventional talk therapy which may relieve symptoms for a while by talking about your emotional problems. But talk therapy, conventionally, doesn't really address the underlying cause for most people, it doesn't allow you to change that underlying cause directly.

And the same can be said for medications. They can provide temporary relief of the symptoms of anxiety or depression, but medications will not change the underlying cause of your anxiety or depression.

There are other forms of psychotherapy like mindfulness therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Now CBT is very good because it attempts to work on the underlying cause, in the form of reactive habitual thinking, and CBT is a very good way of helping you identify patterns of reactive thinking and rumination and then changing them either by directly inhibiting them before they get established or by replacing them with more functional positive thoughts or by challenging the generalizations and irrational beliefs that we usually become attached to when we're not fully conscious of what is going on in the mind. So CBT has been very successful. It has been a great advance on traditional talk therapy.

Now Mindfulness Therapy incorporates CBT and many of the cognitive therapy concepts of CBT but it takes it a stage further because Mindfulness Therapy works not just on thoughts but also on helping to heal and resolve the underlying emotions.

So sometimes, working on just thoughts is not enough to heal the underlying anxiety or depression. So we need to work on the emotions directly as well.

The emotional content becomes habitual also and it gets triggered in the same way that reactive thinking is triggered. We have habitual emotional reactions to deal with and mindfulness therapy is particularly good at helping you identify these emotions and then working with them to promote their healing and resolution.

One of the ways we do this is by actually developing a conscious and friendly and compassionate relationship with these emotions. The aspect of compassion is a very important part of mindfulness therapy and it's very, very powerful when you start to develop compassion towards those painful emotions in yourself.

That starts to generate your true self, which is not afraid. It's not reactive in nature but it is able to embrace and heal emotional suffering. So that's what we cultivate mindfulness therapy sessions, learning how to essentially sit with your emotions without becoming reactive and then responding to your emotions with compassion to help them heal.

And very often this involves imagery we learn to identify the imagery that is causing the emotion and then we look at changing that imagery in order to heal the emotion. So working with imagery is actually part of the response of compassion to emotional suffering.

So that's an important part of mindfulness therapy, and this is what I offer during these Skype Therapy sessions. Skype is a very good medium for psychotherapy online because it allows you to see each other, and as long as you can see each other then there's really no difference between Skype Therapy and conventional therapy in person.

So if you'd like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety and depression through Skype Therapy and using the techniques of mindfulness therapy that I teach online, then please email me and let's schedule a Skype Therapy session at a time that works for you.

I see people throughout the USA also Canada and Western Europe and the UK and as far away as Japan and South Korea.

Therapy for Anxiety and Depression via Skype Available Now!

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I offer online therapy over Skype. So, Skype Therapy is becoming quite popular these days as an alternative to conventional in-person sessions with a therapist. Skype therapy is more popular because it is more convenient and it's also much more comfortable for you since you don't have to leave home.

I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy as a way of helping you work with difficult emotions and habitual reactive thinking.

Most of our emotional suffering is a produce of habit. Anxiety is a product of habit; depression is primarily a product of habit, habitual reactive thinking.

So, the first way to break a habit is to develop more conscious awareness of the habit. The more aware we become, the less controlled we are by the habit itself. So, developing this conscious awareness is very much a part of Mindfulness Therapy. We learn to see our habits, the process that causes our anxiety or depression, or addictions or any other emotional problems that we may experience.

So, during the Skype therapy sessions I will teach you how to focus on developing more conscious awareness of your habits. So, that's the very first step - The more you see your habits, the more freedom you begin to discover, the more you can change those habits.

The second theme, if you like, in Mindfulness Therapy is to look at the emotions themselves and to look at the way that the emotions work. Now, what is most interesting in the mindfulness-based psychotherapy that I teach online, is that we understand that emotions have a structure, and this structure is primarily in the form of imagery. Its how you see the anxiety in the mind that creates that anxiety, creates that emotion.

This internal imagery is what really runs the whole show. Now, we are not usually aware of this imagery because we are not used to looking. Mindfulness Therapy is all about looking and investigating how your mind works. So, we want to discover this internal imagery, and when we discover it, then we can begin to change it. When you change that imagery you effectively change the emotion itself.

So, changing imagery is a very important part of Mindfulness Therapy and developing more conscious awareness of your habits is a very important part of breaking those habits.

During Skype therapy I will teach you how to manage anxiety and depression more effectively using the techniques of Mindfulness Therapy that I developed over 20 years ago and which work extremely well for most people, and without the need for anti-anxiety or antidepressant medications.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I specialize in online therapy via Skype. Skype therapy is a very effective way of dealing with many common psychological, emotional problems including anxiety and depression. I also work with addictions and other forms of compulsive disorders. Of course, Skype therapy is suitable only if you do not require medical treatment for your condition, but most psychological and emotional conditions respond extremely well to psychotherapy that does not use medications and this can be delivered over Skype just as effectively as in-person.

If you would like to schedule a session please let me know and we will find a time that works for you.

So the whole basis of the mindfulness therapy approach that I offer via Skype is about teaching you how to change the relationship that you have with your anxiety or depression. The relationship is the central most important thing that determines whether you become a victim of anxiety or depression or whether you can facilitate the healing of anxiety or depression. The real problem is what we call reactive identification whereby we simply become consumed by our emotions. We contract into the emotion and we take on the identity of the emotion.

So when you say, "I am afraid" you literally become the fear. In the mindfulness training that I offer we learn to break this habit, the primary cause of your anxiety. Instead, we learn to see the fear or the depression or the anxiety as an object in the mind.

It is essential you break the habit of becoming identified with it. When you do that you stop feeding the emotion, you stop fueling it through reactive thinking and other forms that reactivity that we also become identified with. It is very, very important that you learn to establish a relationship that is non-reactive with your emotions. This creates the right internal conditions whereby the emotions begin to heal and change themselves, and anxiety will change if you stop identifying with it and stop reacting to it. It takes in training but its really quite simple, and when you take this very direct approach to working with anxiety, depression you'll be quite surprised at how fast things change.

So if you want to learn more about Skype therapy and how to effectively treat anxiety without using medications then please email me and let's schedule a Skype therapy session.
