Online Therapy for Anxiety
Online Therapy for the treatment of Anxiety and Panic Attacks
Online Mindfulness Therapy for Anxiety and Panic Attacks via Skype.
Treat the underlying cause of your anxiety and panic attacks through Mindfulness Therapy rather than just treating symptoms.
To fully recover from an anxiety disorder you need to change the way that you relate to your emotions. The real problem for most people is that they react to their anxiety with aversion and avoidance, both of which are themselves forms of fear that simply reinforce your anxiety.
Significant change happens when you develop a realationship with your anxiety based on conscious acceptance and compassion.
This inner mindful relationship promotes healing and is essential for recovery and helping you develop it is the focus of Mindfulness Therapy.

Everyone that I have worked with really likes the mindfulness approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…
"Mindfulness therapy has helped me with my anxiety in a very significant way. No longer am I bound to my anxiety in a continuous circle. I’ve been able to see my anxiety for what it truly is, and it has liberated me. Thank you Peter."
"I found Peter’s website serendipitously and I can honestly say that I have had excellent results in six sessions utilizing Peter’s approach which, while based in the teachings of the Buddha, are fully compatible with any religion or philosophy."
During these Skype sessions of Mindfulness Therapy I will teach you mindfulness-based methods for healing all forms of anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, chronic depression, and addiction, including alcohol addiction and other emotional problems, by using the very effective techniques of Mindfulness Therapy.
This approach is remarkably effective and you will experience noticeable recovery after the first 2-3 Skype sessions with me.
Online Mindfulness-based Skype Therapy is highly effective for controlling anxiety and depression without relying on anti-anxiety medications and antidepressants. It is far better to treat the underlying psychological cause of your emotional pain rather than just suppressing 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.
Is online therapy effective for the treatment of anxiety?
A 2018 study published in the Journal of Anxiety Disorders compared the effectiveness of online and in-person therapy and found that both modes of treatment delivery appeared equally beneficial. There are many such studies which you can find by doing a simple search on Google.
I recommend that you choose an online therapy service that uses Skype or Zoom because it is important that you can see each other to establish good communication, otherwise online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy. What is much more important is that you choose the right therapeutic approach and that you feel comfortable wit the therapist that you choose.
CBT works well online and is a good approach and Mindfulness Therapy incorporates CBT and takes it to the next level by teaching techniques such as Mindfulness-based Exposure Therapy and working with emotional imagery, which is a core part of the structure of anxiety and depression.
Online Mindfulness Psychotherapist via Skype for Overcoming Anxiety without relying on anti-anxiety medications
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in Mindfulness Therapy. So if you're looking for an online psychotherapist who can help you overcome anxiety using the techniques of Mindfulness Therapy then please go to my website and contact me with any questions you may have about this approach and whether it will work for you.
My clients tell me they really enjoy Mindfulness Therapy, particularly because it gives you very practical methods that you can use yourself between therapy sessions. So you effectively will be developing a set of skills for working with your anxiety and these skills will help you overcome the habitual reactivity that causes your anxiety. It also will help you reduce the intensity of your anxiety.
So there are many advantages of working with an online therapist for anxiety or depression or any other emotional problem. Convenience of course, is one of the main reasons why people like online therapy and indeed it is becoming increasingly popular. Like anything else it's web-based and people run their lives from the interface of Google or their computer; they like Internet choice, and choice is one of the main features of online therapy. The Online Therapy movement means you can browse hundreds of different types of therapy and different therapists to find what suits you. So that greater freedom of choice is an important factor for online therapy and that's why people choose this approach.
Many of my clients have already been to traditional in-person therapists and have often tried medications, and generally the feedback that I get is that traditional therapy may be useful up to a point but it doesn't seem to really change the underlying cause of anxiety and depression, and that's why people come to me for help using these mindfulness methods that I've developed over the years.
Mindfulness Therapy is very much focused on helping you change the underlying cause of your anxiety; the actual mechanism that creates anxiety now, not analyzing your past or trying to develop some sort of different understanding so much, but really more, looking at the mechanism that creates anxiety and changing that right now, the way it affects you right now.
Mindfulness training, of course, is all about focusing on the present moment. How you experience things now is what is important, much more so than just analyzing the past. Of course, if past emotional trauma is affecting how you experience things now and it's a factor that causes anxiety, then we work on that, but we work on how it works in the present, and that is one thing that makes mindfulness so powerful.
So we're not really just trying to deliver different ways of understanding our mind. We're trying to change the way that the mind works and that is very much more effective in the long run.
Medications. Again they have their place, but do they really change anything? Do they change the underlying psychological habits that create your anxiety? Do they stop anxiety producing thoughts? No. Generally medications do very little other than reduce symptoms for a while.
But it's the same thing, you have to get to the underlying cause, not just treat symptoms.
So if you'd like to learn more about working with an online therapist for your anxiety and you would like to learn more about the Mindfulness Therapy approach that I teach, please go to my website and please reach out to me with any questions you may have. I'm happy to answer your questions.
When you feel ready, you can schedule an online therapy session with me over Skype and you will see for yourself just how effective Mindfulness Therapy can be for overcoming anxiety.
Typically, most of the clients that I have worked with report significant changes and improvements within the first three or four sessions, and that's what you should expect. Psychotherapy should not be a long-term process. You should expect to see changes within weeks, not months or years. If it takes that long then I would simply ask you to question whether that approach is right for you.
Online Therapy for Anxiety Disorders
Welcome. My name is Peter Strong and I'm a professional psychotherapist specializing in online therapy for anxiety. There are now a growing number of psychotherapists who offer online therapy for anxiety and indeed it's a very convenient and very effective way of getting help for anxiety.
If you're interested in learning more about working with online therapists for anxiety please go to my website and watch more videos and read more about the mindfulness therapy approach that I specialize in and that I find works very well online.
If you're going to work with an online therapist for helping you overcome anxiety or depression or any other emotional problem, you really need to make sure that the therapist provides Skype or similar video format so you can see each other as well as talk to each other. It's very important to be able to see each other because there's so much communication that goes on besides just simple verbal communication and seeing each other improves the quality of communication substantially.
So I do recommend that if you want to see an online therapist for help with anxiety that you make sure that they provide Skype to allow you to have your therapy sessions through Skype.
If you want to learn more about mindfulness therapy go to my website and read more about it.
But, basically during these online therapy sessions that I offer over Skype I'll teach you exactly how to apply mindfulness for overcoming the habit of anxiety or fear or any other form of anxiety disorder.
These are habits that we acquire usually starting in childhood, but they are habits and like any habits it can be changed. But to do that you have to develop a very conscious and open relationship with your anxiety or fear. You must learn to face your fear. But you must not try to get rid of the fear by suppression or trying to distract yourself with some activity to get away from it, because if you do that you will simply feel the fear.
So, the biggest problem that I come across over and over again is that people try to avoid their fear or anxiety, sometimes even by meditation, itself, trying to meditate on something pleasant or neutral such as the breath as a way of escaping their anxiety. This is not going to work. And I do not recommend it.
What I teach in my sessions is how to meditate on anxiety directly. That is what needs your help. That's what needs your consciousness and you must really develop a direct conscious relationship with your emotions if you want them to heal and change.
So, if you'd like to learn more about how to apply mindfulness for overcoming anxiety and you're interested in talking to a therapist online over Skype then do please go to my website. Read more about this approach. And then simply email me to schedule a Skype therapy session. I see people all over the world but mostly throughout North America and Western Europe.
So, if you're interested please contact me and let's get started. Thank you.

How to overcome anxiety without relying on medications
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional online therapist and I specialize in mindfulness therapy for the treatment of anxiety and panic attacks and also for working with depression and addictions and also for OCD.
So I'm often asked what is the best treatment for anxiety and panic attacks. Well from my experience over the years it's quite clear to me that the best treatment there is Mindfulness Therapy, that is learning how to apply mindfulness to work with your anxiety and help that anxiety heal.
So the primary job in mindfulness therapy is healing the underlying fear and anxiety. So we go about this in a number of ways. The first most important principle that I will teach you during our sessions together is how to disengage ourselves from the reactive habitual thoughts, such as worrying and rumination and patterns of negativity, that feeds the anxiety. This is something we do by developing mindful awareness to see those reactive thoughts very clearly and to break the habit of blindly identifying with them.
Thoughts in themselves are not the problem and they are not the cause of anxiety. But if we become identified with them then they become a powerful fuel that feeds anxiety, so the first job in our path of overcoming anxiety and panic attacks is to isolate these thoughts, to see them very clearly to find those habitual thoughts that feed our anxiety.
When we find these thoughts we do not try to get rid of them. We do not try to let go of those thoughts. That of course is a pointless exercise. They will simply return again. What we have to do is focus on helping those thoughts heal themselves, to basically resolve themselves, so that they do not repeat and come back again.
So we do this by learning to develop our capacity has the Observer of those thoughts. So the more we become the Observer, the less identified we become with the thoughts. And this basically neutralizes that habitual pattern of identification, which causes the thoughts to proliferate and feed the underlying anxiety.
So we learn to sit with our thoughts, with our anxiety producing thoughts, without becoming identified and without becoming reactive. We take this a stage further. We not only sit with them and develop non-reactivity, or equanimity as it's called, which is one of the principal features of mindfulness, but we also develop compassion and friendliness towards these anxiety thoughts. This is where the real healing occurs.
So compassion is another essential component of mindfulness. If there is no compassion it is not mindfulness; also if there is no clear conscious non-reactive awareness there is not mindfulness. The two together are what constitute mindfulness.
So we learn to be present with our anxiety thoughts and then we learn to respond to them with compassion, really helping those thoughts heal. And this then starts to establish healing pathways in the mind that heal the underlying anxiety. You are taking away the fuel and then we're helping the anxiety heal. This is the primary mission in mindfulness therapy for anxiety and panic attacks.
So the practical way that we go about doing this is to develop our skills in mindfulness meditation, where we meditate on the anxiety. We meditate in order to build a better quality relationship with the anxiety and its thoughts that is based on conscious awareness that is non-reactive and compassion that helps heal those reactive thoughts.
So when we stop avoiding our anxiety and panic attacks through medication, but rather really focus on developing a conscious and compassionate relationship with our anxiety then the rate of healing greatly increases. And most people that I work with start to see dramatic changes in the level of their anxiety within a few weeks of practicing the mindfulness methods, including mindfulness meditation, that I will teach you in great detail during our online therapy sessions together.
So if you are interested in learning how to effectively overcome anxiety and panic attacks, then I invite you to contact me and let's schedule a session. You will see changes even after that very first session when you start to understand how to work with your emotions, how to work with them directly rather than escaping from them or trying to avoid them in some way, which will be not productive in the long-run.
How to Overcome Anxiety through Mindfulness Meditation Therapy
Mindfulness Meditation Therapy is one of the most successful psychotherapies available for overcoming anxiety disorders. It has elements of CBT but focuses much more on changing the actual process that creates anxiety and depression in the mind.
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I am a professional online therapist offering Mindfulness Therapy, which is my specialty and which I talk about in my book, "The Path of Mindfulness Meditation."
If you would like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety through mindfulness meditation, do please go to my website and learn more about this unique approach to overcoming anxiety.
Mindfulness Therapy is particularly effective for anxiety and also for depression, and this is because it teaches you how to change your relationship to your emotions and to your thoughts so that you don't become so easily overwhelmed by recurring patterns of emotional reactivity or intrusive thoughts.
This is the major problem that most people face - is what we often call "rumination" or "automatic reactive thinking" that triggers the underlying emotion of depression or anxiety.
Mindfulness allows us to break free from this automatic process by making it conscious. We begin to see the thoughts as triggers and the moment we see the process happening we can stop it right there and then through becoming conscious of that trigger.
With practice you can learn to see thoughts and emotional reactions as they arise in the mind, but then you are able to stop them turning into anxiety and depression. In this way, we take the fuel away from that underlying anxiety or depression. If you stop feeding the fire of anxiety or depression then the emotion will burn itself out and healing becomes possible.
During Mindfulness Therapy we learn how to actually meditate on our anxiety or depression or other painful emotions. And, it is through this process that you begin to change the whole process that creates the emotional suffering.
If you would like to learn more about how to overcome anxiety or depression using Mindfulness Therapy, please go to my website and CONTACT ME and then we can schedule a therapy session over Skype.
Mindfulness Therapy works really well through online Skype therapy sessions. So, please go to my website and contact me.

Mindfulness-based Online Therapist for Anxiety
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional online therapist specializing in the treatment of anxiety using Mindfulness Therapy.
So mindfulness-based therapy is extremely effective for overcoming anxiety and this is because it teaches you how to change the underlying relationship that you have with your emotions.
The primary problem that I come across in the clients that I work with is the problem of reactive identification. This is the process whereby you become identified with your anxiety.
So anxiety gets triggered in the mind and that is just a habit, a conditioned habit. But the real problem starts when you become identified with it. This is where you essentially become the emotion, where you become consumed by it, controlled by it, overwhelmed by the anxiety. So this is reactive identification and this is the key thing that you must change if you wish to break free from anxiety or depression. It's the same process in both conditions that really causes the problem to sustain itself.
You essentially end up feeding your anxiety or depression when you identify with it.
Other kinds of reactivity that reinforce anxiety and depression are typically the reaction of avoidance. Running away from your emotions. That will strengthen anxiety or depression because it cultivates fear of your own anxiety or depression.
And the other kind of reactivity that is very, very common is reactivity based on aversion: pushing the unpleasant emotions away. Trying to pretend that they're not there, trying to talk your way out of those emotions. These are all ways of pushing the emotion away, suppressing and pushing it into the subconscious and of course that will simply reinforce the habit that creates anxiety of depression.
And that's an important consideration. In my opinion, it is incorrect to call anxiety or depression an illness or chemical imbalance or any other disorder of that type. These are emotional states that are created psychologically in the mind in reaction to certain triggers. Now those triggers could include chemical imbalances in the mind, but not typically it is the anxiety or depression itself that leads to chemical imbalances in the mind and those imbalances simply reinforce and feed the underlying psychological condition.
So the way that we can overcome our anxiety or depression is by working on changing the way that we relate to our emotions. And this does not require medication. It simply requires very careful strategic focused attention on the relationship that you have with your emotions, and that is what we specialize in during Mindfulness Therapy. And I will teach you how to do this.
I have found this approach to be very effective. My clients really enjoy and feel empowered by this approach. And almost all of my clients are able to get off their medications once they start really applying the mindfulness techniques that I teach.
So if you'd like to learn more about mindfulness-based psychotherapy for overcoming anxiety and depression as well, then please go to my website and learn more about my services. And please e-mail me with any questions you might have. I will be happy to answer your e-mails. And when you feel ready we can then proceed to schedule the first online therapy session. And in that first session I will teach you the principles of how to apply mindfulness to work with anxiety and depression.
Most people really benefit tremendously from this approach and I typically tell people to look for changes very quickly after the first one or two sessions. If you start applying these techniques you will see changes quite quickly.
So if you're interested in Mindfulness Therapy for overcoming anxiety depression or any other emotional problem and you like the idea of learning how to do this yourself without relying on medications, then please go to my website and contact me and we can schedule a Skype Therapy session at a time that was for you.
I see people throughout North America but also abroad. I am from the UK originally so of course I have many clients in the UK and Western Europe but I also see people in Australia and Japan and South Korea and so on.

Online Psychotherapist for Anxiety through Skype or FaceTime or Zoom
Welcome. If you'd like to speak to a psychotherapist online via Skype I invite you to go to my website and learn more about online psychotherapy.
So being able to speak to an online psychotherapist for anxiety is particularly useful because usually if you're experiencing chronic anxiety you may find it rather difficult to leave home or go to see a therapist in an office. And the thought of medication and other treatment approaches might be rather intimidating.
So being able to speak to an online psychotherapist via Skype is much more convenient and much more comfortable for most people. And that's the approach that I really specialize in - providing an online therapy resource as a way of working with difficult emotions like anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety and also OCD.
The style of psychotherapy that I offer online is called Mindfulness Therapy, and this is really a very effective way of learning how to manage difficult emotions such as anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches you how to change the way that you relate to your emotions and also to your thoughts. We have to learn to form a relationship with our emotions in which we do not become overwhelmed or consumed by those emotions.
We need to be able to sit with those emotions, observe them, but not become overwhelmed by them. And this is what I will teach you during the online therapy sessions. I will teach you how to sit with your emotions without becoming overwhelmed, and this is a central theme in all Mindfulness Therapy.
The particular style of Mindfulness Therapy that I've developed some 20 years ago now is designed to help you not only form a stable relationship with your emotions but also to explore how to heal anxiety depression and other emotions. And this we do by developing a response based on compassion and friendliness with our emotions.
The typical habitual response that most people develop is that they try to avoid their anxiety or they try to avoid anxiety producing situations and they react with fear towards their anxiety or panic attacks.
So avoidance will not heal anxiety. It simply feeds the anxiety. And the same goes for developing aversion or fear towards your anxiety. If you react in any way to your anxiety it's only going to make it worse, basically.
So when we learn to sit with our anxiety we learn to to see that anxiety as a part of our self that needs our help and need support. We learn to see the anxiety as a part that is in need. And in fact we learn to approach our anxiety very much the same way that a parent would approach a child in need.
The anxiety is very much like a child in many ways. It is conditioned, it has limited ability to change itself and it requires the intervention of a larger entity, like a parent.
Well during mindfulness training, we learn to become that parent to our own emotions, and that is a central requirement for healing. We have to become a parents to our anxiety. When you can approach your anxiety like that then you will facilitate healing and make it much more likely that healing will occur.
So, if you like to learn more about Mindfulness Therapy and you like the idea of being able to speak to an online psychotherapist for anxiety, do please go to my website. Learn more about the Mindfulness Therapy approach and please email me to schedule an online psychotherapy session for your anxiety.
