Everyone that I have worked with really benefits from the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"I unreservedly recommend engaging Peter’s services in, what has been for me, an extremely effective method of learning about my inner self in ways that I’ve never been able to achieve before."
During these Skype therapy sessions I will teach you how to use mindfulness for working with all forms of anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder, OCD, chronic depression, and addiction, including alcohol addiction and other forms of emotional suffering, by using the very effective techniques of Mindfulness-based Psychotherapy.
This approach is remarkably effective and most of my clients/students experience significant improvements after the first 2-3 sessions with me.
Online Mindfulness-based Skype Psychotherapy is extremely effective for overcoming anxiety and depression without relying on medications. It is always better to treat the root cause of your emotional suffering as opposed to just suppressing symptoms.

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.

How to get rid of anxiety without depending on medication
Online Psychotherapist for Anxiety available via Skype or FaceTime or Zoom
Welcome. If you'd like to speak to a psychotherapist online via Skype I invite you to go to my website and learn more about online psychotherapy.
So being able to speak to an online psychotherapist for anxiety is particularly useful because usually if you're experiencing chronic anxiety you may find it rather difficult to leave home or go to see a therapist in an office. And the thought of medication and other treatment approaches might be rather intimidating.
So being able to speak to an online psychotherapist via Skype is much more convenient and much more comfortable for most people. And that's the approach that I really specialize in - providing an online therapy resource as a way of working with difficult emotions like anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety and also OCD.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer online is called Mindfulness Therapy, and this is really a very effective way of learning how to manage difficult emotions such as anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches you how to change the way that you relate to your emotions and also to your thoughts. We have to learn to form a relationship with our emotions in which we do not become overwhelmed or consumed by those emotions.
We need to be able to sit with those emotions, observe them, but not become overwhelmed by them. And this is what I will teach you during the online therapy sessions. I will teach you how to sit with your emotions without becoming overwhelmed, and this is a central theme in all Mindfulness Therapy.
The particular style of Mindfulness Therapy that I've developed some 20 years ago now is designed to help you not only form a stable relationship with your emotions but also to explore how to heal anxiety depression and other emotions. And this we do by developing a response based on compassion and friendliness with our emotions.
The typical habitual response that most people develop is that they try to avoid their anxiety or they try to avoid anxiety producing situations and they react with fear towards their anxiety or panic attacks.
So avoidance will not heal anxiety. It simply feeds the anxiety. And the same goes for developing aversion or fear towards your anxiety. If you react in any way to your anxiety it's only going to make it worse, basically.
So when we learn to sit with our anxiety we learn to to see that anxiety as a part of our self that needs our help and need support. We learn to see the anxiety as a part that is in need. And in fact we learn to approach our anxiety very much the same way that a parent would approach a child in need.
The anxiety is very much like a child in many ways. It is conditioned, it has limited ability to change itself and it requires the intervention of a larger entity, like a parent.
Well during mindfulness training, we learn to become that parent to our own emotions, and that is a central requirement for healing. We have to become a parents to our anxiety. When you can approach your anxiety like that then you will facilitate healing and make it much more likely that healing will occur.
So, if you like to learn more about Mindfulness Therapy and you like the idea of being able to speak to an online psychotherapist for anxiety, do please go to my website. Learn more about the Mindfulness Therapy approach and please email me to schedule an online psychotherapy session for your anxiety. Thank you.

Online Psychotherapy for Anxiety via Skype
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Boulder Colorado and I offer online psychotherapy for anxiety via Skype.
So if you're interested in learning more about online therapy for treating anxiety disorders, whether that's generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, or if you have a problem with recurrent panic attacks, or if you suffer from driving anxiety disorder or a phobia in general, then please go to my website and learn more about this online psychotherapy service that I offer.
If you're interested in online psychotherapy you should check that the therapist is able to provide sessions via Skype. I believe it's essential that you are able to see each other as well as speak to each other, because this greatly improves the effectiveness of communication. And that's a very important fact when you're working with difficult emotional conditions like anxiety and panic attacks or depression, or even for work with addiction.
Many people like online therapy because it's clearly more convenient. And if you're living abroad or in a rural area you might find it difficult to find a local therapist that you want to work with.
People like the greater privacy also offered by online psychotherapy. It means that you can conduct your sessions from home and in the privacy of your own environment. And that's quite important for a lot of people. Sometimes we feel uncomfortable talking about our emotional problems. If it's an addiction it's often very difficult to talk about that in a more public setting. Being able to talk about your anxiety online is much less intimidating for most people. So that's one of one of the additional benefits of online therapy via Skype.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer online is called mindfulness therapy and this is a particular approach that I developed many years ago now that has proven to be incredibly effective for helping people manage anxiety disorders.
It's a technique that uses mindfulness. Mindfulness is simply a way of focusing conscious attention on emotions and on thoughts and memories and other components of the mind. It's a way of becoming conscious without becoming overwhelmed or consumed or lost in anxiety or depression or any other emotional formation.
We have to build a conscious relationship with our emotions. That is an absolute requirement for them to change, in my opinion. Talking about your anxiety can provide temporary relief but it's seldom as good as actually building an internal relationship with your anxiety in which you spend more time, if you like, listening to it rather than reacting to it or trying to explain it away or trying to understand it. All of these forms of cognitive processing are really taking you away from the emotion itself.
We create a safe space around our anxiety and we begin to explore how that anxiety works. One of the most important things we first focus on is the constellation of reactive thoughts that feeds that anxiety.
So anxiety tends to lead to proliferation of anxiety-based thinking. And this in turn feeds the underlying anxiety and creates this vicious feedback loop that stops the anxiety healing. So the first part of mindfulness is all about learning to see these reactive thoughts and breaking the unconscious habits of becoming lost in those thoughts. So we're not indulging the anxiety. Instead with simply creating a conscious and non-reactive relationship with it.
The second thing that we focus on in great detail during Mindfulness Therapy is looking at the internal imagery of the emotion. And this might be a new concept to you, but if you think about it you will begin to realize that all emotions are based around imagery.
So if you'd like to learn more about online psychotherapy via Skype for your anxiety do please email me and tell me more about how I can help you. And then when you feel ready we can schedule a session.
You will see in the very first session just how powerful this approach can be and most people see changes after the very first session, when you start applying the mindfulness methods that I'll teach you on how to work with your anxiety.

How to overcome an anxiety disorder through Mindfulness Therapy 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.
