Effective Agoraphobia Help Online via Skype. Visit: https://pdmstrong.wordpress.com/online-therapist-for-agoraphobia/ to schedule a Skype therapy session with Dr. Peter Strong, specialist in online mindfulness therapy for the treatment of agoraphobia and anxiety without resorting to medications.

 Welcome! I provide online therapy via Skype for the treatment of anxiety and depression and other emotional problems including agoraphobia. So if you're looking for effective online therapy for your agoraphobia, then I invite you to please reach out to me. Contact me through my website and ask any questions you may have about my approach and how to overcome agoraphobia effectively without using medications, and I will be happy to answer any questions you have, and when you feel ready, we can schedule some sessions. 

 So I usually see people once a week, typically, in the case of agoraphobia. We may need to meet for six to seven or eight sessions depending on how well you do. The most important thing in overcoming Agoraphobia is your commitment to change. If you are really motivated to overcome your agoraphobia and the associated anxiety and panic attacks, then we will be able to make progress. If you're able to really work hard at your recovery process and put the methods into practice that I will be teaching you during the first sessions, then you'll see results. 

 So what are these methods? Well the very first thing we must do is design a schedule of incremental challenges so that you have material to work with every day. But just throwing yourself into a difficult anxiety-producing situation is not a suitable strategy. That's not going to produce results. Exposure therapy by itself is not usually very effective. 

 What we have to do is train with the mind. We have to prepare very carefully before we do any of these challenges, and that is the training that I provide called Mindfulness Therapy or Mindfulness-based Exposure Therapy. So this is where we combine the methods and the technology of mindfulness for working with the anxiety reactions. 

 Anxiety itself is a habit. It's not a disease. It's not a disorder. It should not be treated with medications, in my opinion. It should be treated as a psychological habit. And habits can be changed when you bring more conscious awareness to them. And of course, that is the primary focus of mindfulness training is to bring more conscious awareness to your anxiety reactions and to the anxiety producing thoughts that tend to feed that anxiety. 

 As we developed more equanimity we can then start to respond with even stronger mindfulness methods. And this is really the response of compassion. Compassion is an integral part of mindfulness. Mindfulness is not just awareness, it's awareness combined with compassion, with this inner natural innate state that we have of responding to suffering when we see suffering. 

 So if you would like to learn more about the mindfulness-based approach to overcoming your agoraphobia, then please reach out to me by email. 

 Let's schedule a session. All sessions are done via Skype. You must have some kind of video interface so that you can see each other. That's essential really for good communication. But if you have Skype or Face Time or similar platform then therapy by Skype is just isn't as effective as meeting in person. There's no difference. So if you'd like to get started with me and learn how to overcome your agoraphobia from home using mindfulness therapy then please contact me. Thank you.
