Online Psychotherapy through Skype for treating anxiety & depression
Everyone that I have worked with really benefits from the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"Working with Peter and developing mindfulness has been instrumental in helping me break from my habitual mental suffering. His form of therapy is effective for many reasons, but primarily I think it's because Peter works with you to help you discover the truth of your suffering for yourself, rather than judging you or telling you - his presence is always calm and kind, and provides a great atmosphere for healing.”

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, then please email me and schedule a Skype Therapy session to help you recover from your anxiety or depression.

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.

Skype Therapy - Home-based Psychotherapy Service
Online Skype Therapy
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy and I offer online Skype Therapy for the treatment of anxiety and online Skype Therapy for help with depression and many other common psychological problems that do not require medication.
Most of my clients have tried medications for their anxiety or depression or OCD or other emotional problems without much success. And there's a reason for this, because medications do nothing to change the underlying cause of your anxiety or depression. The underlying cause is primarily psychological in nature.
Even if there is a chemical imbalance in the body, that chemical imbalance is nothing more than a trigger that triggers the psychological reaction. If there is any underlying biochemical or physiological problems then you should consult with your doctor, but generally this is quite rare and most of my clients come to me after trying medication and they simply want something better, that actually addresses the problem rather than just covering up the symptoms. And that's what I offer during online Skype Therapy.
I teach mindfulness-based methods for working with emotional suffering such as anxiety or depression or intrusive thoughts or addictions or many other difficult psychological problems that we all face at one time or another.
It's really learning how to work with these emotional habits and how to start developing a conscious and mindful relationship with your emotions and with your thoughts and also with your memories, including traumatic memories, too. I offer online Skype Therapy for PTSD as well as anxiety and depression.
The most important thing is building a conscious and mindful relationship with your mind. Most of the time we don't do that you simply run away from our emotional pain or we react by becoming identified with our emotional pain, which simply feeds it, or we react with aversion to our emotional pain, which also prevents it healing.
The only way that the psychological habit that creates anxiety or depression can heal is when we create a friendly and conscious relationship with our emotions and thoughts. And this is the principle focus of Mindfulness Therapy, and I will teach you how to apply mindfulness for working with your emotions.
This approach is very effective, in deed. And I've been teaching Mindfulness Therapy for over ten years now and the number of people who have benefited from this approach is quite surprising and very satisfying for me.
Because once you learn how to apply mindfulness you become able to manage your emotions much more effectively than you could ever learn by a treatment-based approach, like medications.
So, if you'd like to learn more about online Skype Therapy and you'd like to schedule Skype Therapy sessions with me, then please go to my website, learn more about this approach, and then of course e-mail me if you have any questions.
If you would like to start online Skype Therapy with me, then please contact me and let's schedule a therapy session via Skype, and you'll see yourself within the first two to three sessions, just how effective it is when you start to change the way that you relate to your emotions using mindfulness. Thank you.

Skype Therapy for the treatment of Anxiety and Depression
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional online psychotherapist and I provide psychotherapy via Skype. So if you're looking for Skype psychotherapy online, I do encourage you to read more of the pages on my website. Watch some of the videos about Skype Therapy and reach out to me if you have any questions or if you would like to schedule Skype Therapy with me.
Skype Therapy is an excellent opportunity to get quality help to overcome anxiety and depression, but without having to go to see a therapist and in an office. Many people really prefer the convenience of online therapy and also the greater privacy and anonymity that is offered by online therapy. This is very important if you're dealing with difficult emotional problems like depression or addiction.
If you are suffering from agoraphobia, then it becomes essential to look for an online therapist to help you overcome your agoraphobia. I see a surprising number of people with driving anxiety with a phobia of driving, which of course greatly limits them and makes it very difficult to to go and see a therapist for treatment for driving anxiety.
There are lots of reasons why people like online therapy, but perhaps the most important thing is that it feels more comfortable for you. It's really important that you feel comfortable and are able to do the detailed and very personal work needed to bring about the healing of your anxiety or depression or other emotional problems.
So that's really the focus of Mindfulness Therapy, which is what I teach on Skype. Mindfulness Therapy teaches you how to totally change the relationship that you have with your emotions, to really change the relationship from one that is reactive and simply feeds the anxiety or depression, to a relationship that's based on consciousness and compassion, the two primary elements of mindfulness.
So when you can change that internal psychological relationship to one that allows you to be present with your anxiety or depression or other emotions and not react to them, then you create the ideal conditions for healing.
It is trying to heal but what stops it healing is reactivity, blind habitual reactivity. The way that we get lost and reactive thinking, the way that we get completely identified and therefore overwhelmed by the emotion. So that's what we call reactive identification.
So whatever the identification is, whatever the reactivity is, it ends up feeding that emotion and stops it healing. But if you take away the reactivity, the emotion will resume its natural path of healing.
Another analogy to think of here is to look at the emotional suffering as being like a wound. Again, a wound naturally heals itself if it is allowed to do so. Those mechanisms of healing are a natural part of the body.
It is the same for the mind. Emotional wounds will heal if we stop reacting to them. We look at them like an emotional wound. That wound is already destined to heal itself once we stop reacting.
So the key principle behind Mindfulness Therapy is to learn how to stay present and develop this conscious, compassionate presence that is not reactive, that does not feed the anxiety or depression. The more you cultivate that, the faster the healing.
Then you can start to develop internal compassion on top of that and start to interact with your emotions in a way that helps them heal. You learn how to comfort your inner fear, your inner hurt. That will accelerate healing even more. So that's the response of compassion, which is very much a part of Mindfulness Therapy.
We learn how to respond compassionately to our own emotional wounds.
So if you'd like to learn more about this approach to psychotherapy using mindfulness and you like the convenience of Skype Therapy, then do please contact me and schedule a Skype Therapy session.
So Skype Therapy is very effective. You don't need to be in the same room as a therapist. You do need to see each other. And of course, that is what Skype allows. It allows you to see each other. And that makes it as effective as being in the same room as the therapist.
So if you would like to learn more and you'd like to schedule some Skype Therapy sessions with me, or if you have questions you would like to ask, please go to my contact page and email me. Thank you.
