Talk to an online psychotherapist via Skype for the treatment of anxiety and depression
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong, and I am a professional online mindfulness therapist. I specially in Mindfulness Therapy because I find that to be the most effective way of working with anxiety, depression, and also addictions.
If you would like to speak to a therapist online, please go to my website, the link is below, and email me and then I can answer your questions and explain to you in more detail how online therapy works.
The first session is called a Trial Session, which means there is no upfront payment and in fact payment is made on your satisfaction, on your total satisfaction with the outcome of that session. So, this a way for you to get a sense of how online therapy works, how I work as an online therapist, and to see if this is the right approach for you and if you wish to continue online therapy with me.
So, what do we do during these online therapy sessions? Well, what I focus on is teaching you how to overcome those underlying patterns of reactive thinking and emotional reactivity that cause your anxiety or depression.
This really quite different than conventional talk therapy, which is more about having an avenue to release your emotional stress to someone who is sympathetic and willing to listen and encouraging you to express yourself. That is, of course, very important; and important part of good psychotherapy. But, in my experience, talk therapy is not enough. We have to look at changing that underlying process. We have to learn how to break free from the habitual patterns of negative reactive thinking.
And, this is where mindfulness is so effective, because it is a very powerful awareness skill that allows you to explore that underlying structure of your emotions. It allows you to see those patterns and it allows you to change those patterns.
More than this, Mindfulness Therapy also allows you to explore how emotional reactions work, themselves. Now, emotions are really quite different than thoughts, their primary language is not words but it is imagery. Imagery is the natural language of emotions. When we say, for example, "I feel overwhelmed,'" that give us a clue to the internal imagery of the emotion. We literally see the emotion above us, at a higher position, weighing down on us. We feel OVER-whelmed by the emotion. That is a part of the imagery that makes the emotion work.
So, when we explore this imagery with Mindfulness Therapy, we see all the details of how that emotional imagery works and we can change that emotional imagery through mindfulness. We can explore making all kinds of modifications in that internal imagery that allows the emotions to neutralize itself, to discharge itself, to change. We teach the emotion how to change itself, essentially.
Emotional imagery, just like reactive thinking is primarily habit, and habit thrives on not being seen. Mindfulness is all about exploring in great detail what is actually happening; it's about exploring that structure. It is about learning how to become a scientist, basically, exploring how things work in your mind.
So, this is one reason why Mindfulness Therapy is so powerful. Another reason why Mindfulness Therapy works is because it teaches you how to change your whole relationship to your thoughts and emotions. It teaches you how to observe your emotions without becoming overwhelmed by them, without becoming identified with them, without becoming reactive.
So, if you would like to speak to a therapist online, do please go to my website and email me and I will explain this in more detail, and then we can schedule a trial session.

Online Therapist - Talk to a Therapist Online
If you would like to talk with a therapist online I encourage you to go to my website and learn more about online therapy.
So being able to talk with a therapist online is very convenient of course. It means that you can have your therapy sessions without having to leave home or without having to leave work. All you need is a quiet place and a good internet connection and a copy of Skype installed on your device, whether that's a laptop or computer or mobile phone.
People like the convenience of being able to talk with a psychotherapist online. I've been offering this online therapy service for over 10 years now and it's very, very popular indeed because of this convenience.
There are many other advantages to being able to see a therapist online. And that includes the fact that it makes you feel more comfortable and it makes you feel more in control of your change process. And this is very important.
If you're working with difficult emotions, if you're working with extreme anxiety or depression or if you're struggling with an addiction it's important that you feel and gain more and more control in working with these emotions.
So actually the process of going into a therapist's office can actually make you feel less empowered and makes you feel more like a victim rather than making you feel more in charge. So this is an important factor. This is why I don't advocate treatment based approaches in general, including medications, because they don't give you the tools that you need to overcome your anxiety or depression.
You have to work at the psychological level to do that, if you really want to heal. You have to change the underlying habitual processes that causes your emotional suffering. And that's what I focus on during these online Mindfulness Therapy sessions that I offer via Skype.
I will teach you how to work with your emotions so that you don't become controlled by them. I will teach you how to develop a conscious relationship with your emotions and thoughts without becoming a victim of your emotional reactivity.
Emotional reactivity such as anxiety or depression or addiction is, at the end of the day, nothing more than a very strong and ingrained psychological habit and habits can be trained to change by using tools like mindfulness, where we actually focus mindful attention on the habit itself.
The very process of observing your emotions actually helps you break free from your emotions because you establish a conscious relationship and habits work unconsciously, they depend on you not forming a conscious relationship with your emotions.
So this is one aspect of Mindfulness Therapy that's really important for successful change. If you really want to break free from your emotional suffering then you need to learn how to apply mindfulness to work with those emotions.
If you would like to learn more about talking with an online mindfulness therapist, then go to my website. There is plenty of information there about Mindfulness Therapy and the benefits of online therapy in general. And when you feel ready, simply reach out to me by email and we can schedule a Skype Therapy session at a time that works for you.

The most important key to overcoming anxiety and panic attacks is to break the habit of reactive identification with emotions and thoughts when they get triggered. Mindfulness training is the best approach for doing this.
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional online therapist specializing in mindfulness therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression without the use of medications. This is a non-medical approach and it's based on the teachings of mindfulness therapy.
This is a system that I developed many years ago and I've been offering online for many years and proves to be very effective indeed for working with anxiety and panic attacks and depression and many other common emotional problems that benefit from mindfulness training.
If you'd like to talk to a therapist online to learn how to manage your anxiety and panic attacks better, then please go to my website and email me to schedule a session. You will be quite surprised at how quickly you can overcome anxiety and also panic attacks once you start applying mindfulness. It's a really remarkable set of tools that helps you prevent that problem that we call Reactive Identification, which is really at the center of anxiety reactivity for most people.
The problem is that we become identified with our anxiety, we collapse into our anxiety, we become captured by our anxiety, we become prisoners of our anxiety, and this process is called Reactive Identification, and it's basically simply a habit. Now with mindfulness training you will learn how to stop this habit so that you can essentially become an OBSERVER of your anxiety and other emotions.
You become an observer of your thoughts without becoming identified and overwhelmed by them. This is a key step that's necessary for changing the habits of anxiety panic attacks and also for depression.
You have to break free from the habit of becoming overwhelmed by emotional reactivity and also cognitive reactivity. You have to learn to maintain balance in relationship to the mind. This is much easier than you might think. The problem, simply, is that most people are not given the guidance in how to do this.
Talking therapy can be useful but often it simply does not help you break free from that problem of reactive identification. Also, medications do little to nothing to change the underlying habit of identification that triggers anxiety and depression and panic attacks and OCD and all of these other kinds of habitual emotional reactions.
So, if you like to really learn how to manage your anxiety and panic attacks better, then please email me. Let's schedule a trial session so you can see for yourself just how effective the mindfulness approach can be.

Speak to an Online Psychotherapist for Help with anxiety and depression
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I specialize in online mindfulness therapy. This is a system of psychotherapy that I've developed over the years which is particularly effective for overcoming anxiety and depression.
So if you're interested in talking to a psychotherapist over Skype to help you overcome your anxiety or depression then do please go to my website and learn more about this online service and then feel free to contact me. Ask any questions you may have about online psychotherapy in general, or about the mindfulness therapy therapy approach that I teach. I'd be happy to correspond with you until you feel comfortable enough to schedule a Skype therapy session with me.
The Skype Therapy approach that I teach is very structured and very practical. It is designed to give you mindfulness based tools for working with your emotions and to help you heal those emotional reactive patterns that are causing suffering.
So I firmly believe that anxiety and depression are best viewed as psychological habits, not medical disorders, and psychological habits can be changed through training, and that's what we do during these mindfulness therapy sessions.
I will teach you how to work specifically with your emotions so that they heal. Basically, this is what we're interested in doing, learning to heal that emotional pain. We're not trying to cope or tolerate our emotions. We're not trying to manage our anxiety or depression or stress. We're trying to heal it. This is one of the fundamental features of mindfulness therapy.
As as we know, anxiety and depression are fueled by reactive thinking, patterns of conditioned habitual automatic reactive thinking. And that's the first thing we must focus on, and learning how to manage reactive thinking so that it doesn't fuel the underlying psychological habit that creates your anxiety or depression.
So it's possible to free yourself from patterns of habitual reactive thinking and rumination when you bring more conscious awareness to the mind. This is the thing that's missing and that really is behind the habits of anxiety or depression. We don't have sufficient consciousness. We are certainly aware that we are suffering and we are aware of these reactive thoughts but we do not have a conscious relationship with them. They arise and they seem to take over, they take charge. They control our state of mind and that is an unconscious process.
Mindfulness is about developing more consciousness and mindfulness therapy is about bringing this consciousness to basically break that habit of reactive thinking. So that's one very big part of the mindfulness based psychotherapy that I have developed over the years.
There are other aspects to mindfulness based therapy. We also work a lot with the imagery of our emotions. Most people are not familiar with this but all emotions are based around internal psychological imagery. How you see emotions and thoughts, as well, in the mind is what determines the intensity of those emotions or thoughts or beliefs or memories.
This is particularly the case with traumatic memories. It's not so much the event itself that causes the trauma. When we remember that event, whether it's physical abuse or emotional abuse, or whether it's a very disturbing scene, whatever it might be that's causing that post-traumatic stress. It's not the actual memory itself it's the imagery of the memory that creates the re-traumatization. How you see that picture in the mind, how big it is, how close it is, how much color and detail does it have. Is it a sharp image or is it a fuzzy image.
So that imagery has a structure and part of our work in mindfulness therapy is to uncover this image structure, to see how it actually works in the mind. Again, by bringing more consciousness to the emotions to investigate the structure of the emotions. When you see how that imagery works then you can begin to change that imagery and that changes the emotion itself very directly. So when when emotions heal naturally, what actually happens is that their imagery changes. The images become smaller, more distant, more fuzzy, and so on.
