Online Treatment for Anxiety & Depression through Skype
Skype Therapy - psychological therapy online
Everyone that I have worked with really likes the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"Beyond healing the anxiety, my whole inner landscape is changing. I’m learning that the self-criticism, shame and doubt I have been stuck in for so long can all be met with compassionate awareness and brought to resolution. I’m starting to feel the joy Peter talks about and a real tenderness toward myself and others."

Skype Therapy – The New Psychotherapy for Anxiety & Depression
Online Treatment for Anxiety and Depression
Skype Therapy - 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.

Skype Therapy -The Benefits
Traditional counseling can be helpful, but often common talk therapy does not transform the habitual psychological process that is the real cause of your anxiety and depression.
The same can be said for medications - the prescription medications may reduce symptoms for a while, but medications are not going to transform the underlying psychological process that causes the anxiety or depression.
The school of psychotherapy that I provide is called Mindfulness Therapy, which can be extremely effective for controlling chronic anxiety and for treating depression and other psychological issues resulting from conditioned negative thinking. Most people notice quite significant changes after 3-4 sessions of Mindfulness Therapy.
Skype therapy is a very convenient option if you are living abroad or if you are living in an area where it is difficult to find a psychotherapist to work with, if its a rural area or if you are living in a foreign country. It may be difficult to find a local therapist.
Also, a lot of people are looking for alternative to the traditional medical approach to psychotherapy. A lot of people are looking for newer styles of psychotherapy such as CBT or Mindfulness Therapy, which is what I offer online. It's about really learning how to take charge of your own emotional well-being, by learning practical, effective skills and methods for overcoming tour anxiety or depression or other emotional suffering that is affecting the quality of your life or relationships.
The mindfulness techniques that I teach and offer online in these counseling sessions is particularly effective for overcoming anxiety.
When I talk to people in this position, it becomes immediately clear that even though they have done all this work on their anxiety or panic attacks, they have never actually looked at the mechanism that produces that anxiety - the underlying emotional reactivity and how that works.
It is really important to actually look and see how the anxiety works, and this is one of the characteristics of Mindfulness Therapy. Rather than talking about your anxiety or your family history or trying to uncover repressed memories or other potential trigger points for your anxiety.
We really examine the mechanism of how it operates right now, because that is what you can change. You can change the actual structure of the emotional reaction itself through mindfulness. This often involves looking at the imagery of the emotion. This is quite an interesting area for most people.
All emotions are based around psychological imagery that forms in the mind. That imagery essentially is an organizing principle that holds that emotional energy together and creates an emotion like anxiety or depression or anger. They will all have different imagery.
During Mindfulness Therapy we take great interest in uncovering this imagery. We look at it by focusing on the emotions themselves, directly, to see what is there. So, this very direct approach is a characteristic of mindfulness, and Mindfulness Therapy as I teach it and have developed over many years now, really focuses on helping you change the imagery of the emotion, because when you change that, you change the emotion quite significantly. The imagery is an absolute requirement for an emotion. If you change the imagery you change the emotion. So, that is one aspect of Mindfulness Therapy.

Skype Therapy - Home-based Psychotherapy Service
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Colorado, USA and I offer Skype Therapy online for the treatment of anxiety and depression for people who are looking for an alternative to medications or traditional talk therapy.
Most people who come to me have already tried medications and they're trying to get off medications because of side-effects or because they simply don't seem to work, which is quite a common complaint. Medications may provide a short term usefulness for treating symptoms, for reducing the severity of anxiety or depression, but as a long-term strategy medications are really not adequate. They are not sufficient because they can't change the underlying psychological process that is causing your anxiety or depression.
So anxiety and depression are produced by underlying psychological reactions, conditioned psychological habits that feed that anxiety and depression and keep it from healing, particularly reactive thinking, that's one of the most common processes that feeds anxiety and depression.
So if you want to really break free from the cycle of anxiety or depression, you have to work on changing these underlying psychological habits. These habits operate subconsciously and therefore, we're not really consciously aware of what's happening in the mind. We are aware of feeling anxious or feeling depressed, but we're not really aware of the process that's producing those feelings.
So I have developed a system for working with these underlying psychological habits that's called Mindfulness Therapy. And it's very effective. It's a very effective way of working with your emotions to stop these underlying reactive habits and to promote healing of the emotion itself.
So you can learn more on my website. But if you're interested in trying to very different approach than conventional talk therapy or medications, then please contact me and ask any questions you may have about Mindfulness Therapy.
But really, Mindfulness Therapy is about developing a very conscious and mindful relationship with your emotions, with your anxiety or depression or any other emotion that's causing problems for you.
The biggest issue that I encounter is that people do not have a conscious relationship with their emotions. They react to their emotions with avoidance or aversion or trying to escape the emotional pain through alcohol or other addictive process. There is this tendency to react and try to get away from pain, which is understandable, but which has the undesired effect of preventing healing.
So conscious awareness or mindfulness is required for healing those psychological habits.
So in Mindfulness Therapy, we don't talk about our emotions so much. Instead, we focus mindful awareness on those emotions. In effect, we learn how to meditate on how our emotions to develop this inner consciousness that is essential for healing.
So we learn to meditate on our emotions, and that is the primary process of mindfulness meditation as I teach it. Meditating on the mind in order to bring about healing in the mind. This is essential, otherwise you become a prisoner of those reactive habits.
So. I will teach you how to meditate on your emotions during our Skype Therapy sessions together, if you choose to work with me. The approach is very effective, and unlike medications, it gives you tools that you can apply yourself, including mindfulness meditation, so you can start to work on your emotions between sessions and develop the skills necessary to promote healing and well-being.
This approach is very effective and most of my clients see tremendous improvements after the first three or four sessions.
The key is learning how to apply mindfulness to work with your mind effectively.
So if you would like to schedule Skype Therapy with me, then please reach out to me. Go to the Contact Page and send me an email. Tell me more about yourself and how I can help you.
