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 sessions I will teach you how to use mindfulness for working with all forms of anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder, OCD, chronic depression, and addiction recovery and other emotional problems, by applying the very effective teachings of Mindfulness-based Psychotherapy.
This approach is particularly effective and you will experience noticeable results after 3-4 Skype therapy sessions with me.
Online Mindfulness Psychotherapy is highly effective for controlling anxiety and depression without relying on drugs. It is far better to treat the underlying psychological cause of your emotional suffering instead of just managing symptoms.
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 Therapist for the Treatment of Anxiety via Skype
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy for the treatment of anxiety disorders.
So mindfulness is an extremely powerful form of conscious awareness that can really make all the difference if you're struggling with anxiety.
So I specialize in teaching mindfulness methods and techniques for overcoming anxiety and I do this online. So if you're interested in talking to an online therapist for anxiety then please contact me and schedule a few online therapy sessions.
The mindfulness approach, as I say, is very powerful indeed and what it fundamentally does is it breaks you out of those unconscious reactive habits that create your anxiety.
So anxiety is best described as a habit rather than some sort of medical disorder. I think that's the wrong approach if you want to overcome anxiety. If you want to just suppress symptoms then you might use a medical approach and ant anxiety medications. But that's not what I advocate, because it does not really address the underlying cause of your anxiety and that is these accumulated unconscious habits, psychological habits that create anxiety.
And during Mindfulness Therapy we look very carefully at these inner habits. We actually learn how to meditate on our anxiety so we can examine it in great detail and see how it works. You look for the triggers, first of all. What are the specific triggers that trigger anxiety reactions? Then we look at what happens in the mind as we replay these triggers during our meditation.
Typically most people see that what really gets triggered in the mind is imagery, some form of internal psychological imagery that has a strong emotional charge. That imagery is what really causes the anxiety. So the trigger triggers the imagery in the mind out of habit and that imagery then triggers the emotion.
So when we meditate on our anxiety we look for this imagery and the more that you see of the details of that imagery the more you can change, because when you see the imagery in the mind consciously, then you're able to change it, you are able to help that imagery change.
For example, very commonly, people say to me that they feel overwhelmed by their anxiety. Well that tells me straightaway that the anxiety imagery is very large. It's also probably above you, it is high in your visual field, the way you see it and the mind. You don't see it on the floor, you see it above you.
Now it has to be above you to be overwhelming. It also has to be very large to be overwhelming. And by that same reasoning, it cannot be overwhelming if it is on the floor, and it cannot be overwhelming if you make it the size of a grain of sand.
So that imagery really defines our emotions. Typically we don't see that imagery because we don't look. Well, during Mindfulness Therapy we do look. We look very closely at the structure of our anxiety to see this imagery and then we explore changing it. We explore changing its size, its position, spatial position, perhaps its color, perhaps its texture.
Typically, when people look at the imagery of anxiety they will usually see red or orange colors. That seems to resonate with the feeling of fear or anxiety. If you are looking at the imagery of depression you would probably not see red or orange, but more likely black or grey or dark purple. Those are very common colors. Again those are part of the structure that creates the emotion.
Just because the emotion has a certain color or a certain size or position it does not mean that it has to stay in the configuration. It only shows up in that way because of habit. So when you bring mindfulness to that habit you bring choice and you can start to change the imagery, and when you change the imagery of anxiety you will diffuse the emotion; you will effectively neutralize it. And it is possible to then sit and examine those triggers, to bring them into the mind, and not experience anxiety. So that's all part of Mindfulness Therapy and that's what I teach online. And it works extremely well.
So if you want to get help from an online therapist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety using mindfulness, then please contact me and let us schedule some Skype Therapy sessions.

So many people, these days, really like the convenience of online therapy for their anxiety. It's much easier and it's also just as effective, as long as you use a video platform like Skype.
If you can see each other, then the effectiveness of communication is just as good as it is seeing a therapist in person.
So if you'd like to see an online therapist for help with generalized anxiety disorder or social anxiety disorder or OCD or for agoraphobia or any other form of anxiety, then please email me and we can schedule a session at a time that works for you.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer via Skype is called Mindfulness Therapy and this is particularly effective for anxiety.
Basically during the online sessions, I will teach you how to apply mindfulness for working with your anxiety, for neutralizing those anxiety reactions that have become habitual.
We do this by actually learning how to meditate on our emotions and our thoughts using mindfulness meditation, where we make the emotion the central focus of your meditation.
We learn how to build a relationship with your emotions whereby you do not react or identify with those emotions, but are able to sit with the emotion in very much the same way that you would be able to sit with a child that was in pain.
In order to be comforting to the child and help the child you need to be able to sit with the child without becoming reactive, and that the first stage of mindfulness training. We call this developing equanimity, which simply means that you can sit with your emotions without becoming reactive, in that same way.
When you can do that then you can respond to the anxiety, or other emotions that you have detected that feed that anxiety, in a way that helps them heal.
So the first step is not making the anxiety worse by reacting to it. The second stage is learning how to respond to your anxiety with compassion, how to help that anxiety heal, and one of the primary ways we do this is by building that very relationship itself, the relationship between your True Self. And the emotion, which we often call the Little Self.
When that anxiety feels the presence of your True Self then that facilitates the healing and resolution of that anxiety. In most cases the real reason why the anxiety does not heal is because it becomes isolated from your True Self. And that is similar to the situation in which a child is abandoned and isolated from its parents. It needs its parents in order to overcome its own fear and to grow in a healthy way.
And so it is with our emotions. Typically they become isolated and cut off from our True Self, and this prevents them healing.
So during mindfulness meditation we strive to re-establish this relationship between your True Self, the Observer, and the emotion itself. This is the first stage of mindfulness therapy for anxiety. And there are many other aspects of Mindfulness Therapy for anxiety, which you can learn about by spending more time on my website and reading more of the pages there and watching more of the videos on my website.
But if you'd like to get started with me and see for yourself just how effective online Mindfulness Therapy is for treating anxiety, then simply email me and we can schedule is Skype Therapy session for your anxiety.
Most people see results within the first three to four sessions. The mindfulness approach is extremely effective for treating anxiety.

Anxiety attack treatment without relying on medication
My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional registered therapist based in Boulder, Colorado, USA. I offer online therapy using Skype. Let me answer your questions about psychotherapy via Skype, and when you feel ready, you can a Skype therapy session with me. I typically meet with clients weekly for the first few weeks.
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional mindfulness therapist offering mindfulness therapy online for the treatment of anxiety and depression and other emotional problems. If you'd like to learn how to overcome anxiety without medication then I can definitely help you through these online sessions.
Mindfulness therapy teaches us that the prime cause of anxiety is the way that we identify with our emotions and with our thoughts. So what happens is that an emotional reaction gets triggered by triggers, which could be thoughts, they could be external events as a driving anxiety. It could be all range of factors: it could be physical sensations experienced in the body. These are triggers and what the trigger is an eventual emotional reaction. That is psychological and that habitual psychological reaction then triggers reactive thinking and behavioral reactivity, such as avoidance strategies. It also triggers bodily reactions, such as increased heart rate, increased perspiration, reddening of the face, and other common physical sensations associated with anxiety.
These reactions in turn trigger and feed the underlying emotional reaction and so it becomes a vicious circle. The secret is to really learn how to break this this reactive habit, this cycle in which one part triggers another part creating that anxiety. You need to learn for example to be able to isolate the triggers and see triggers without blindly reacting emotionally. We need to be able to see the emotional reactions and hold them in conscious awareness without allowing them to trigger thought reactions, and so on.
And we need to be able to also develop conscious awareness of body sensations that are produced by the anxiety without reacting to those physical sensations in the body with catastrophic thinking and other forms of emotional reaction.
So once we can start to separate these different elements and start to dis-identify from them then we can break the habit that creates the anxiety and feeds it. And once you start feeding the anxiety then the anxiety reaction itself, the emotional reaction, will begin to subside and eventually it will be eliminated or reduced to a normal level.
So this is the subject of mindfulness therapy, we learn how to identify the triggers, the emotional reactions, the thought reactions, the behavioral reactions, and the bodily reactions. We learn to separate each one from the others so that we can break this reactive cycle.
It's quite easy actually to do. The real problem is that we have never done this before. Most people have never really thought to look at the elements of their emotional reactivity, they just blindly identify with them. But there is, as we say in mindfulness therapy, there is no law that says you have to react in a certain way. The reactions are habits and habits are a product of blindness, of not being seen, as much as anything else.
So if you'd like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety without using medication, then please go to my website and e-mail me, and we can schedule a Skype therapy session at a time that works for you, and I'll begin teaching you the practical ways of managing your emotional reactivity. So I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
