Welcome! My name is Peter Strong, and I am a professional online therapist. I offer online
therapy via Skype for anxiety, depression and for stress.
I teach Mindfulness Therapy for stress reduction. This approach is very effective for helping
you change the underlying process that causes emotional stress. Now, what is that underlying
process? Well, if you look closely you will see that the majority of stress that we experience
is produced by uncontrolled reactive thinking. We may find some stimulus that generates an
anxiety or concern and then immediately we start proliferating thoughts; thoughts around
"What if...?" or anticipation of some kind of catastrophe. So, this kind of catastrophic
thinking, rumination, or just general proliferation of thought from the single stimulus is what
generates most of our emotional reactivity.
The purpose of online mindfulness therapy for reducing stress is to teach you how to
prevent this process of reactive proliferation of thinking.
Mindfulness is a very sophisticated tool of awareness that allows you to see what is happening
when it is happening so you can catch these reactive thinking processes earl on, before
they start to gain momentum and cause emotional stress.
So that is, in brief, what we focus on during these sessions of online mindfulness therapy
for emotional stress reduction. If you would like to learn more, please read my website
and then please contact me and we can schedule a Skype therapy session to help you work on
reducing your stress levels through mindfulness therapy. Thank you!
