Mindfulness Therapy for Driving Anxiety & Phobia

A very popular request is for help overcoming a fear of driving. Driving phobias are quite common and are usually resistant to standard "talk therapy." I have developed an approach called Mindfulness-based Exposure Therapy, where I will work with you via Skype, while in your car. People really respond well to this and most see dramatic improvements after the first few sessions.

Online Mindfulness Psychotherapist via Skype for Overcoming Anxiety without relying on anti-anxiety medications.

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy. So if you're looking for an online psychotherapist who can help you overcome anxiety using the techniques of Mindfulness Therapy then please go to my website and contact me with any questions you may have about this approach and whether it will work for you.

My clients tell me they really enjoy Mindfulness Therapy, particularly because it gives you very practical methods that you can use yourself between therapy sessions. So you effectively will be developing a set of skills for working with your anxiety and these skills will help you overcome the habitual reactivity that causes your anxiety. It also will help you reduce the intensity of your anxiety.

So there are many advantages of working with an online therapist for anxiety or depression or any other emotional problem. Convenience of course, is one of the main reasons why people like online therapy and indeed it is becoming increasingly popular. Like anything else it's web-based and people run their lives from the interface of Google or their computer; they like Internet choice, and choice is one of the main features of online therapy. The Online Therapy movement means you can browse hundreds of different types of therapy and different therapists to find what suits you. So that greater freedom of choice is an important factor for online therapy and that's why people choose this approach.

Many of my clients have already been to traditional in-person therapists and have often tried medications, and generally the feedback that I get is that traditional therapy may be useful up to a point but it doesn't seem to really change the underlying cause of anxiety and depression, and that's why people come to me for help using these mindfulness methods that I've developed over the years.

Mindfulness Therapy is very much focused on helping you change the underlying cause of your anxiety; the actual mechanism that creates anxiety now, not analyzing your past or trying to develop some sort of different understanding so much, but really more, looking at the mechanism that creates anxiety and changing that right now, the way it affects you right now.

Mindfulness training, of course, is all about focusing on the present moment. How you experience things now is what is important, much more so than just analyzing the past. Of course, if past emotional trauma is affecting how you experience things now and it's a factor that causes anxiety, then we work on that, but we work on how it works in the present, and that is one thing that makes mindfulness so powerful.

So we're not really just trying to deliver different ways of understanding our mind. We're trying to change the way that the mind works and that is very much more effective in the long run.

Medications. Again they have their place, but do they really change anything? Do they change the underlying psychological habits that create your anxiety? Do they stop anxiety producing thoughts? No. Generally medications do very little other than reduce symptoms for a while.

But it's the same thing, you have to get to the underlying cause, not just treat symptoms.

So if you'd like to learn more about working with an online therapist for your anxiety and you would like to learn more about the Mindfulness Therapy approach that I teach, please go to my website and please reach out to me with any questions you may have. I'm happy to answer your questions.

When you feel ready, you can schedule an online therapy session with me over Skype and you will see for yourself just how effective Mindfulness Therapy can be for overcoming anxiety.

Typically, most of the clients that I have worked with report significant changes and improvements within the first three or four sessions, and that's what you should expect. Psychotherapy should not be a long-term process. You should expect to see changes within weeks, not months or years. If it takes that long then I would simply ask you to question whether that approach is right for you.

Mindfulness-based Anxiety Counseling Online

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.

How to Overcome Anxiety through Mindfulness Meditation Therapy

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!

Online Counseling for Anxiety via Skype

Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I provide online mindfulness therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression and addictions. But mostly people come to me for help with anxiety disorders. This is by far the most common problem that most people struggle with. So if you're interested in mindfulness therapy for overcoming an anxiety disorder do please reach out to me by e-mail. Go to my website, learn more about Mindfulness Therapy and how it can help you overcome your anxiety disorder.

So anxiety disorders, generally, describe problems that are persistent, that are chronic in nature. It's not the short term anxiety that we might experience for example giving a presentation or something like that. We are concerned with persistent recurrent anxiety. So generalized anxiety disorder is one kind of very common anxiety that is characterized by chronic worrying, just catastrophizing, just basically a form of anxiety that is characterized by the proliferation of anxiety based thoughts that just keep feeding that anxiety in a vicious circle. Social anxiety disorder as another anxiety disorder that I work with is also based on a whole network of habitual reactive thoughts and beliefs that feeds a basic underlying insecurity in social situations.

And it is very important to work with your anxiety disorder and not let it grow and gain strength, because it tends to continue to grow if not checked. It's like a weed. And if you don't take care of it it will start to limit you more and more. Because one of the key problems that people experience when they're suffering from an anxiety disorder is they start to get into patterns of avoidance and aversion, that is trying to run away from the anxiety. They try to limit their exposure to anxiety producing situations. They try to avoid the source.

The only effective method to overcome an anxiety disorder like generalized anxiety disorder or social anxiety disorder or obsessive compulsive disorder as well is by actually not avoiding it but actually facing it very directly, very head on. But in a strategic way. Not just allowing yourself to become overwhelmed by the anxiety.

Then we choose to meditate on each of those thoughts. So this is developing non-avoidance. This is developing that conscious relationship. We learn to see the anxiety producing thought as an object in the mind, which is what it is, what it always was to begin with. We see it as an object that gets triggered in the mind and it arises in the mind. And our job is to see it clearly without identifying with it, without trying to push it away.

So we develop a conscious relationship with it, as if we hold that thought in a space and we embrace it in that space but without feeding it through reactivity. That is what produces change. And it can be very quick as well in producing changes and basically undoing that habit of reactive thinking that feeds the anxiety.

So we deliberately meditate on our anxiety thoughts, we don't avoid them. The second part of mindfulness therapy involves looking at the structure of those thoughts. Besides the proliferation of reactive thinking around the anxiety we also look at the actual structure, the internal structure of the anxiety itself, and that structure is in the form of imagery.

So all emotions are based around imagery, that is what holds them together in the mind, gives them structure and investigating that imagery is a very, very effective way of neutralizing the anxiety habit, the anxiety reactions, to begin with.

So to learn more simply e-mail me and to schedule a session simply tell me what times and days work for you and we can then go ahead and schedule the first therapy session. Most people see quite dramatic changes after that very first session and certainly within three or four sessions you can expect to see major improvements and a major reduction in the level of anxiety that's affecting you. So please reach out to me by email and let's schedule an online mindfulness therapy session for your anxiety. Thank you.
