Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I provide online therapy for anxiety and also for depression and other common emotional problems that can benefit from mindfulness training.

So if you like the idea of seeing an online therapist for help with your anxiety then please go to my website. Learn more about this service and then reach out to me by e-mail. Ask any questions you might have about how online therapy can help you. And of course tell me specifically about the kind of issues that you are dealing with and I’d be happy to explain to you how we can help you overcome your anxiety by using Mindfulness Therapy techniques.

So during Mindfulness Therapy sessions I will teach you how to change the the impact of anxiety on your well-being.

The most common problem that we have to address is the problem of reactive identification. This is where you essentially become identified with your anxiety or other emotions.

During mindfulness training we learn how to effectively meditate on our anxiety with out becoming consumed by it. You learn to form a non-reactive relationship with your anxiety by deliberately training with it.

Of course our habit is usually to avoid our anxiety, to try to escape from it, to try and medicate it, which is simply yet another form of escape or avoidance. Or we become lost in the anxiety through reactive identification.

What we need to do is to train with your anxiety and effectively form a relationship with it whereby you stop that habit of feeding it through identification or other forms of reactivity.

When you can do that then you can begin to change that anxiety habit, and anxiety is at the end of the day a habit, it is simply a conditioned reaction that has become unconscious that gets triggered over and over again, and we are trying to break that unconscious habits by focusing mindful awareness upon the habit.

When we break the habit of feeding the anxiety day then you can help it change. And we do this by a variety of mindfulness-based techniques, perhaps the most important one being the response of compassion. This is where we develop a compassionate relationship with the anxiety or other emotion itself. We actually learn to comfort that internal fear, which is what anxiety is.

We learn to relate to our emotions in the same way that we might relate to a child or another friend that’s in need, that’s in pain. We learn to form a compassionate relationship with the anxiety. We learn to hold it in our compassionate embrace, and that is basically what we mean by mindfulness. Being mindful of anxiety means to stay conscious with it and then respond to it in a compassionate way that helps that anxiety heal.

One of the most important parts of the compassionate response is actually looking at the imagery of the anxiety and changing that imagery.

I can explain this to you in more detail during our first session together, if you choose to contact me and schedule an online therapy session.

Working with the imagery of anxiety is immensely powerful. This is why for example, we typically describe anxiety as being overwhelming. It’s overwhelming because the imagery is very large and has a position above us in our internal psychological imagery. That’s how we see the emotion: being very large, being very consuming and generally at a high level. It has to be at a high level to overwhelm you.

So this internal emotional imagery operates habitually, unconsciously, without our knowing about it. But once we start exploring it through mindfulness then we begin to uncover this imagery. And when you make it conscious you can then change that imagery. And when you change the imagery of any emotion you change that emotion directly, because that imagery is required to make that emotion.

So working on changing your relationship to anxiety so that you do not feed it through unconscious reactivity is essential, but then exploring and changing the unconscious imagery of the anxiety is also essential and I will teach you exactly how to do this during our online therapy sessions together.

So if you’d like to learn more simply contact me and schedule a Skype Therapy session so you can see for yourself just how effective this mindfulness approach can be for healing anxiety. Thank you.

Online Psychotherapy for Anxiety by Skype

Do please contact me if you’d like help with anxiety. If you’d like to see an online therapist for help with anxiety then go to my website and learn about the online therapy for anxiety service that I offer via Skype.

So working with an online therapist is obviously very convenient and all the studies show that online therapy is just as effective as therapy in a face to face situation in a therapist’s office. There’s no difference, especially if you use Skype or other video platform, so you can see each other. That’s the most important thing.

So Skype Therapy is much more effective than email therapy or some form of chat format. Because when you can see each other the efficiency of communication is greatly increased and that’s quite important for working with the concepts of psychotherapy that can help you overcome your anxiety.

So I teach Mindfulness Therapy, which, over the years, has proved to be immensely effective for overcoming all kinds of anxiety, whether that’s a generalized anxiety disorder, whether it’s obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, or whether it might be fear of driving, or any other kind of anxiety that you might be struggling with.

Mindfulness Therapy really is excellent at helping you control those patterns of habitual reactive thinking that feeds your anxiety. It is probably the best approach available.

CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy is often recommended for working with anxiety and it’s quite good, but I believe Mindfulness Therapy is the next step up from CBT.

It works much more directly with thoughts and with emotions. It works on changing your relationship to thoughts and emotions rather than focusing on trying to get you to change your thoughts by some form of rational intervention.

Often that’s just not so effective because your thoughts are very much emotionally charged by anxiety to begin with and it’s very difficult to just try and convince yourself that your thoughts are irrational and somehow stop those thoughts from bothering you.

Mindfulness Therapy doesn’t try to change thoughts by some sort of rational argument but rather it works on actually neutralizing the emotional charge of those thoughts directly by working with the emotions that fuel the anxiety thoughts.

You will see for yourself just how effective this approach is. It only takes, really, three to four sessions with me to learn how to apply mindfulness for working with your anxiety, and I will guide you in how to do this and teach you in great detail how to apply mindfulness so that you can practice by yourself working with your thoughts and with your emotions between sessions. And after three or four weeks working with me you will see tremendous changes.

So please contact me if you would like to learn more. 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.

So please contact me if you’d like to get started.

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.
