How to beat intrusive thoughts through Online Mindfulness Therapy via Skype
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong and I provide an online therapy for anxiety and depression and addictions and also for help with obsessive-compulsive disorder and intrusive thoughts.
So one of the best ways of overcoming intrusive thoughts and beating this problem of intrusive thoughts, and also images too, and memories is to learn how to work with these thoughts using mindfulness.
So I specialize in Mindfulness Therapy and I find it to be immensely effective for working with difficult intrusive thoughts.
So the best way to beat intrusive thoughts is not to fight them. If you fight those intrusive thoughts, if you try to get rid of them, that will end up feeding them and you will make them stronger and then they become even more intrusive.
So the best way to beat intrusive thoughts is to develop a friendly relationship with them. Now I know that may seem difficult because the intrusive thoughts cause so much pain and anxiety but it's only by making friends with those thoughts that you can ever hope to free yourself from intrusive thinking.
One of the best models, I think, for working with intrusive thoughts is to really examine why do those thoughts or images or memories keep coming back into the mind? Why are they intrusive?
And from a mindfulness perspective we see this intrusiveness as actually quite positive, in the sense that we recognize that those thoughts, those emotionally charged thoughts or images or memories are essentially trying to heal themselves. But in order to heal, they must have your conscious awareness, your conscious presence.
You need to have that conscious and friendly relationship with them in order to help them heal and make the changes that they need to make in order to heal.
So we must not under any circumstances avoid intrusive thoughts or memory images. Instead we must learn how to develop a conscious relationship with them, and developing a friendly relationship simply has the effect of increasing the quality of consciousness. This is what those thoughts need to change and heal.
So we develop a conscious and compassionate relationship with our intrusive thoughts. We then explore helping them heal. And this is technically called the response of compassion, which is a central and integral part of mindfulness.
We learn how to help them heal, how to help the thought or the emotion heal itself. We see that that thought is not you. It is an object in you, just like a child is not you; it is separate from you but it needs a relationship with you in order to heal. So we relate to our intrusive thoughts as being like objects, or even better being like that child that's coming to us for help.
You look at is structure. What does it actually need to heal? And one of the primary ways we can help it heal is to examine the emotional imagery of the intrusive thought or image or memory.
So the emotional part is what keeps it intrusive, it is what causes it to stay in the mind. It's the emotional charge of the thought or memory image that we must heal and change, and that emotional charge is primarily encoded in imagery.
So how we see the thought in the mind, how we see the memory in the mind, is what actually causes that memory or thought to have this emotional charge.
So we look at his imagery and then we explore changing that imagery, which we can do once we have a conscious relationship with the thoughts or memory images or other intrusive images. We look at the structure of the imagery and then we work on changing that imagery.
So this is a natural healing process. This is how emotions change. When the emotion changes then there is nothing to sustain the intrusive thoughts or belief or memory or anything else.
So it's by working with the imagery in this way that we can help intrusive thoughts heal, and when they heal they are no longer intrusive, they simply fall away like any other thoughts.
So please, if you would like to work on overcoming your intrusive thoughts please do send me an email and let's schedule a trial session. Most people see quite interesting changes even after the very first session and certainly after three or four sessions.

Talk to a therapist online for Effective Help for Anxiety
Welcome! My name is Peter Strong. I'm a professional psychotherapist based in Colorado and I offer online therapy by Skype, worldwide. All you need is a good Internet connection and Skype and we can schedule Skype Therapy sessions. So if you are interested in talking to an online therapist for effective help with anxiety I invite you to go to my website and learn more about the mindfulness-based psychotherapy that I offer online and that I specialize in.
So Mindfulness Therapy is a very effective way of working with anxiety. It's really quite different than conventional counseling and it's also a better alternative, in my opinion, to medications. You want to address the underlying cause of your anxiety. You want to change the habitual reactive process that creates your anxiety.
Medications cannot do that, they are not able to change the underlying psychological habits that cause your anxiety, and often just talking about anxiety is not sufficient to change the mechanism that creates your anxiety. That is the focus of Mindfulness Therapy.
I've worked with many people over the years now and they all really like the mindfulness approach. It gives greater insights than the typical with standard talk therapy and it gives you the tools to work with your anxiety and produce effective change.
In Mindfulness Therapy we do this by developing a very conscious and mindful relationship with our emotions. We look directly at our emotions and we see how they work. The first thing we focus on is the constellation of habitual reactive thoughts that have the effect of reinforcing the underlying anxiety.
So the anxiety is kept alive by reactive habitual thoughts. So we need to work at that level. We need to develop more mindfulness to see these reactive thoughts in progress so that we can stop them and that we can begin to disengage that fuel source from the anxiety.
So being able to sit with the emotion without getting lost in reactive thinking is the first step in Mindfulness Therapy and the first major step in healing anxiety. When you have now established a non-reactive relationship with your anxiety then you can begin to help it heal and that is the second major theme in Mindfulness Therapy is all about healing.
So we do this in Mindfulness Therapy by developing a compassionate relationship with our anxiety and with other emotions that are associated with the anxiety. Compassion is an extremely powerful force and it's very much a part of mindfulness. Mindfulness can be defined as compassionate awareness in the present moment. So that means bringing compassionate awareness to your emotions in the present moment.
The third aspect of mindfulness is even more direct than that, and that is to actually look at the structure of the emotion. What is it that causes that emotion to arise in the mind? And the primary factor that constructs our emotions is imagery. The imagery of the emotion is what really hold it together and causes it to come into being. That imagery gets triggered by various factors, internal factors or external factors. But it's the imagery that actually causes the emotion. So that's the in-between step, if you like, of the habit that creates emotions.
So we look at this imagery when we are studying it in meditation. We're looking to see how that imagery works and then we investigate how to change that imagery to help the emotion heal. So when emotions heal they do so by changing their imagery, either with our involvement or not. The imagery has to change for the emotion to heal. So we help it change directly during our mindfulness meditation sessions.
I will teach you how to do this, how to apply mindfulness to work with your emotions and with your anxiety to facilitate healing. Because it's such a direct approach, most people see quite substantial changes within three or four sessions and you'll see even after the first session. You'll get a feeling of where this is going and how this can really help you.
So if you would like to get started with me and you like the idea of talking to an online therapist who specializes in Mindfulness Therapy then to please contact me. Feel free to ask any questions you have about online therapy or about Mindfulness Therapy. When you feel ready, we can schedule the first session.
