Online Mindfulness Therapy

Treat the underlying cause of your anxiety or depression through Mindfulness Therapy rather than just treating symptoms

Skype Therapy - Speak with an online therapist

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.

Almost everyone who seeks my help has already tried medication or conventional counseling and are definitely looking for an alternative approach, a more holistic approach that focuses on healing rather than just trying to reduce symptoms. We want to be FREE from anxiety and depression, not just endlessly try to manage symptoms.

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

"I had three sessions with Peter (4 hours total) and am very glad I had a chance to do therapy with him. Even after one session, I already felt better about some of the trauma I have had since I was young. With him, I learned to dissolve the trauma and came to terms with what happened in the past. I very much appreciate Peter’s kindness, wisdom, and patience."

How to start Skype Therapy for Help with Anxiety & Depression

Contact me via email to schedule a Skype therapy session.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy which I offer online over Skype.

So if you would like to learn how to start Skype Therapy to help you overcome your anxiety or depression or other emotional problems then please reach out to me by e-mail. Tell me more about yourself and how I can help you and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have about Skype Therapy.

People like online therapy in general because it's so much more convenient. It means you can organize your sessions from home. You don't have to leave home to go to a therapist's office, and this can be very beneficial.

So I see lots of people who suffer from agoraphobia, and I also see quite a few people who suffer from driving phobia and difficulty with driving in general. But I also have quite a few clients such as stay at home mums or the elderly or people who generally find it difficult to leave home for whatever reason.

So online therapy has a lot of great advantages. And as long as you use Skype or similar video format then the Skype Therapy sessions are really no different than talking with a therapist in person. It's really important that you can see each other. That makes the communication more effective and equivalent to meeting in person.

Another reason why people like Skype Therapy is because it feels more comfortable in general. It is far less intimidating than going to a clinic or a therapist's office.

It's also more private too and that's another feature that many people like. When you're dealing with difficult emotional problems, or maybe an addiction, it's often difficult to talk about this in public. It's easier for you to talk in private, and of course talking to to me through Skype offers you that degree of privacy.

So if you would like to learn more about Skype Therapy and the Mindfulness Therapy approach that I specialize in, do please email me.

All you need to start Skype Therapy is a laptop, tablet or even an iPhone, which has her Skype installed on it, and you need a reasonably good internet connection, which is usually not a problem these days. And you need a quiet place in which to conduct your therapy sessions.

So during the Skype Therapy sessions I will teach you how to work with your emotions using mindfulness. Now you may have heard about mindfulness. It's a very very interesting area. It's been around many hundreds of years, of course, and traces back to the teachings of the Buddha. But now we are discovering how to apply mindfulness in overcoming emotional suffering. And it works extremely well when working with anxiety or depression or for managing the painful and compulsive emotions that are associated with an addiction.

I have also developed a number of mindfulness-based techniques for working with PTSD that are proving very successful indeed. These include techniques like mindfulness-based imagery reprocessing, where you can effectively decrease the intensity of a flashback memory by changing the way that you see that scene in the mind.

So working with imagery is actually a very important part of working with emotions in general. Even anxiety and depression has associated internal imagery and this is why we often feel overwhelmed when we are struggling with chronic anxiety or depression. Literally, that's because the emotion is very large and we see it above us in our internal imagery. That's why we use that term, "feeling overwhelmed.".

Another part of Mindfulness Therapy has to do with trying to change your relationship to your emotions and thoughts as well. This is very important because our habit is to become completely lost in our emotions or thoughts. We become identified with them and when you become identified with them then this leads to emotional suffering.

So if you'd like to learn more please email me and schedule a Skype Therapy session.

Online Mindfulness Therapy over Skype for Managing Depression without using antidepressants

Talk to a Psychotherapist Online via Skype for effective online therapy for Anxiety and Depression, Panic Attacks, Social Anxiety Disorder and Agoraphobia, Addictions, and other psychological and emotional problems, including PTSD and Traumatic Stress.

To overcome depression you must develop a conscious and mindful relationship with your emotional pain, whatever form that takes. The biggest problem that prevents recovery from depression is automatic and habitual reactive thinking and rumination, where we become lost in negative thinking and negative beliefs. This reactivity feeds depression and prevents depression from healing. The more we can break free from reactive thinking the faster we will recover.

The main factor that supports reactive thinking is the lack of conscious awareness. We become controlled by the habitual thoughts that we do not see. Mindfulness Therapy provides an extremely effective way to restore consciousness allowing us to regain freedom and choice in relation to our thoughts making them less reactive. Thoughts themselves are not the problem, it is the lack of consciousness that is the real problem. Re-establishing a conscious relationship with our thoughts and emotional reactions is the most important step in the recovery from depression and most other forms of emotional suffering.

Antidepressants may have a limited value in the short-term management of symptoms of depression, but medications are not a substitute for the psychological work of re-establishing inner conscious awareness. This is the primary focus of Mindfulness Therapy, and it is very effective for most people.

Online Mindfulness Therapy, available via Skype, offers a very effective way to manage and to overcome chronic depression by teaching you how to manage rumination and reactive thinking which feed depression as well as teaching you how to develop a non-reactive and compassionate relationship with the underlying emotions such as fear, feelings of helplessness and hopelessness, emotional trauma, profound loss, guilt and shame and overwhelming emotional stress. These core emotions need to heal inorder to fully recover from chronic depression and Mindfulness Therapy provides an extremely good approach for doing just this.

OCD Therapy Online over Skype

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder Colorado. And I offer online mindfulness therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression and also obsessive-compulsive disorder.

If you're looking for online therapy for OCD, then I invite you to go to my website and learn more about this therapy service and about mindfulness therapy and then please contact me to schedule an online therapy session to help you manage your OCD.

OCD therapy online is very effective and most of my clients see quite substantial changes after the first three to four sessions of online Mindfulness Therapy. The key to working with us OCD is to learn how to change your relationship to your thoughts, to your beliefs, to your memories and to your emotions.

The biggest problem is that we simply become controlled by thoughts, we lose perspective. We become a prisoner of our thoughts and also our beliefs. So mindfulness training is the process of learning to break this imprisonment by thoughts. We do this by learning to meditate on the mind. This is called mindfulness meditation.

Mindfulness meditation is the process of learning to sit with your thoughts, emotions, memories and beliefs without becoming reactive, without becoming identified, without becoming controlled by the content of your own mind.

This is absolutely essential because if you cannot establish a degree of freedom in relationship to your intrusive thoughts then you will be a slave to those thoughts and they will not change, because your reactivity will have the effect of reinforcing those thoughts and the emotion behind the thoughts.

So, that's the first step of mindfulness therapy, is learning to establish a balanced relationship with our intrusive thoughts. We do this by meditating on our intrusive thoughts, but consciously instead of in a blind unconscious manner.

And the second stage is one of working with those thoughts, and more importantly, working with the emotional energy underneath the thoughts that is making those thoughts intrusive thoughts, making them powerful, giving them the power to cause problems and cause you to be overcome by them.

Working with the underlying fear is an essential part of breaking free from OCD. So the underlying emotion is the fuel that feeds those intrusive thoughts and the intrusive thoughts and beliefs are what get converted into compulsive behaviors.

So really the root is to learn how to change our relationship to thoughts and then to resolve the underlying fear that fuels those thoughts. And this is what I will teach you during online OCD therapy.

So, if you would like to learn more, please go to my website. Please e-mail me with any questions you may have and let's schedule a therapy session over Skype at a time that works for you.

PTSD Non-medical treatment - Online Mindfulness Therapy via Skype

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I am a professional online therapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy for the treatment of anxiety, for the treatment of depression and also for helping you overcome post traumatic stress disorder and help you recover from traumas as well.

So PTSD and emotional trauma simply refers to very intense emotional experiences that the brain is not able to process by itself automatically. We need to process it by some form of psychotherapy. Medications have a place for controlling symptoms of PTSD but medications are not sufficient to treat the underlying psychological process that creates your emotional trauma or associated emotions like guilt or shame or anxiety or depression.

So if you're looking for a non medical approach if you're looking to treat your PTSD without using medications then I would advise you to take a look at my websites and learn a little more about how Mindfulness Therapy can help you overcome your PTSD.

During online therapy sessions. I will teach you how to work with the traumatic memories through a process called mindfulness-based imagery processing, and also to work with the associated core emotions such as anxiety, panic attacks, and depression that are associated with emotional trauma, and that we call mindfulness-based emotion reprocessing.

The key to working with trauma is to actually develop a stable and non-reactive relationship with the traumatic memory.

That's the first step. We have to reprocess that memory and we do this by actually meditating on the memory itself and developing more and more consciousness around that memory. The real issue is the fact that we tend to react to the memory unconsciously and we tend to identify with the memory unconsciously. We become overwhelmed by it we become controlled by it. We relive that memory, essentially.

So by meditating on the memory, the traumatic event, you're actually learning to change that conditioned unconscious process to a conscious relationship. That is critical. Otherwise we are simply again to relive and re traumatize ourselves and that will simply feeds the PTSD.

So we build a conscious relationship with the emotional trauma we then began to explore the imagery of that trauma.

So emotional trauma is created by internal psychological imagery. It might be as simple as the memory itself, the memory image with intense details and color and clarity of the image. That is what actually creates the emotional trauma. It becomes very real because of the detail and sharpness of that memory image.

So when we begin to explore how the imagery works, we look at these details, we can begin to change that imagery.

When you change emotional imagery, you change the emotion.

So that's one very simple and it is something that you can even try yourself. But I will teach you how to do this in great detail.

There are many other ways we can work with this imagery and I'll explain this to you as we explore how to reprocess your emotional memory.

The other part of working with PTSD is working with the associated emotions: the anxiety, the guilt, the depression, whatever it might be. That emotional content also needs to be processed. And we do that and very much the same way.

We first built a conscious relationship with the emotion itself, seeing it as an object in the mind in a similar way that we would see the memory image has an object in the mind. So that's the first thing. Being able to meditate on the emotion without becoming reactive and without identifying with it.

The emotion will also have its associated imagery, which may be different than the memory image and may be more abstract in nature, but all emotions have associated imagery, and the same rules apply. When you change that imagery you change the emotion.

So we work on establishing a non-reactive relationship that doesn't feed the depression or anxiety. And then we look at helping that emotional imagery change, and when it changes sufficiently then the depression or anxiety is resolved.

If you'd like to learn more to please go to my website and then reach out to me by email. So this is a non-medical approach, it does not use medications. It basically helps you change the underlying psychological process that causes your PTSD.

Online Mindfulness Therapy for Stress Management

Online Mindfulness Therapy for Stress Reduction provides an extremely effective tool for managing stress. During these online mindfulness therapy sessions I will teach you specific ways of working with the habitual patterns of reactive thinking that contribute so much to emotional stress, worrying, anxiety and depression.

This approach is very effective because it works on changing the underlying process that causes stress, and most people see dramatic improvements and significant reduction in their stress levels after 3-4 online sessions.

The first step in mindfulness training is to train ourselves to become aware of reactive thoughts the moment they arise. Of course our habit is one of unawareness, which results in becoming lost in our thoughts. The thoughts proliferate and overpower the mind causing emotional stress and anxiety.

When the mind becomes crowded with thoughts it become less able to make decisions and skillful actions and more prone to error, which causes more stress-based thinking.

Reactive thinking creates a vicious cycle that leads to more stress and more reactive thinking. If we do not gain control of this reactive process it can lead to depression and chronic anxiety. Chronic stress can also lead to health problems and can seriously affect our relationships, too.

When we are over-stressed we tend to become more irritable and angry. Our family life suffers and we often become more withdrawn and disconnected from life. Chronic stress can also lead to addiction, and is one of the major contributing factors for alcoholism and substance abuse.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong, and I am a professional online therapist. I offer online therapy via Skype for anxiety, depression and for stress.

I teach Mindfulness Therapy for stress reduction. This approach is very effective for helping you change the underlying process that causes emotional stress. Now, what is that underlying process?

Well, if you look closely you will see that the majority of stress that we experience is produced by uncontrolled reactive thinking. We may find some stimulus that generates an anxiety or concern and then immediately we start proliferating thoughts; thoughts around "What if...?" or anticipation of some kind of catastrophe.

So, this kind of catastrophic thinking, rumination, or just general proliferation of thought from the single stimulus is what generates most of our emotional reactivity.

The purpose of online mindfulness therapy for reducing stress is to teach you how to prevent this process of reactive proliferation of thinking.

Mindfulness is a very sophisticated tool of awareness that allows you to see what is happening when it is happening so you can catch these reactive thinking processes earl on, before they start to gain momentum and cause emotional stress.

So that is, in brief, what we focus on during these sessions of online mindfulness therapy for emotional stress reduction. If you would like to learn more, please read my website and then please contact me and we can schedule a Skype therapy session to help you work on reducing your stress levels through mindfulness therapy.

Talk to a psychotherapist online for help with addiction

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional psychotherapist specializing in mindfulness therapy, which is particularly effective for treating addictions. If you would like to talk to a psychotherapist online for help with addiction, then please go to my website and learn more about mindfulness therapy and how it can help you. Please e-mail me and ask any questions you may have about the mindfulness approach. It is very effective and most people see it's quite substantial improvements after the first three or four sessions.

Mindfulness therapy is very effective because it works directly on helping you change those habitual emotions that fuel addiction, whether it's depression or stress or anxiety or or any other emotion. The primary problem is that that emotional energy feeds the compulsive impulses of the addiction. You have to change those underlying emotions in order to overcome addiction effectively.

Mindfulness is extremely good at doing this because it teaches you how to build a conscious relationship with your emotions. The real problem is that we fall into patterns of avoidance and aversion. We don't like painful emotions, we try to get away from them. But in so doing you inadvertently feed those emotions and you prevent them from healing. It's essential to develop a conscious and also friendly relationship with your emotions if they are to heal. They require others and that's what we specialize in, and I will teach you join these online therapy sessions that I authored via Skype exactly how to do this. It is not that difficult.

I will teach you how to essentially meditate on your emotions: on the anxiety, the depression, the stress, whatever it might be. I will teach you how to develop and cultivate this mindfulness relationship with your emotions that will promote healing. You can practice this between sessions yourself. This is a life skill that I teach and it is, as I have said, very effective and probably the most direct approach there is to healing emotional suffering and for recovering from the various forms of behavioral reactivity such as addictions. So. please contact me to learn more about mindfulness therapy for addictions and talk to a therapist online for help with your addictions. Thank you.

I see people throughout North America and some in South America I have seen. I see many clients in Europe and the Middle East and as far away as Australia.

Most of my clients are really interested in the mindfulness approach to working with their emotions. They want an alternative to medications and usually most of my clients have already tried medications and have already tried conventional talk therapy, usually without much benefit.

The mindfulness therapy approach takes a very much more direct approach to changing anxiety and depression and other difficult emotions. We actually work on changing the way that the emotion is produced in real-time in the present moment. And, of course, focusing on present experience is a key feature of mindfulness.

The history of how an emotional reaction got established is not as important as studying the actual present process that creates that anxiety or depression or addiction. We must look at the underlying psychological habitual process itself that is operating now. That is much more relevant than trying to understand family history or the past biography of yourself. That isn't going to really help you change what's going on now; it may give you insights, it is part of the change process, but it's not direct, and mindfulness therapy is very direct. It focuses on changing those habitual patterns that have gotten established, and it works very well.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional online therapist and I offer Skype psychotherapy online.

Psychotherapy through Skype is becoming much more common and widely accepted these days especially for the non-medical treatment options, which is what I offer. The Skype therapy sessions that I offer are primarily designed to help you learn very effective methods of overcoming those habitual patterns of anxiety or depression that get triggered and that create so much suffering for you.

Anxiety and depression are at the end of the day primarily emotional habits; these are psychological habits; it is a psychological process that produces anxiety and depression.

The best means for changing a psychological habit is going to be some form of psychotherapy; and that's what I offer. I offer online psychotherapy using, actually, a system that I developed some years ago that I call Mindfulness Therapy, which is very effective for changing those habitual patterns of reactive thinking and emotional reactivity that feeds anxiety and depression.

Th first stage in effective Skype psychotherapy is learning to change the way that you relate to your emotions. We have to learn to become The Observer, to become conscious of your anxiety or depression or other emotions that appear in the mind, that get triggered because of these habits. We need to become conscious of them, but without becoming reactive and without becoming overwhelmed by the emotion. You have to develop what we call a Mindfulness-Based Relationship with your anxiety or depression or other emotions.

With training and with practice you can begin to break free from the habit itself, and when you stop feeding the habit then the emotion begins to subside. It will heal quite naturally by itself if you stop feeding it through becoming identified with the anxiety or depression.

During Mindfulness Therapy sessions we learn to effectively sit with our emotions and care for them with a quality of compassion and friendliness along with a great deal of conscious awareness. So, we learn to care for our emotions, we learn to take care of them the same way that a parent would take care of a child in pain.

This relationship is absolutely fundamental to successful psychotherapy. In my opinion, it is the defining factor as to whether psychotherapy is effective or not. It is the quality of relationship that you build with your emotions that matters.

If you would like to learn more about Skype psychotherapy online sessions do please go to my website and learn more about Skype therapy and this whole process, and email me and we can schedule an online therapy session. So, go to my website and email me. Thank you!
