Online counseling & mindfulness therapy for anxiety & depression
Online psychotherapy, e-counseling and internet therapy are becoming increasingly popular. It is convenient, affordable and proven to be effective. The focus is on giving you the tools to better manage your depression, anxiety, stress, and other difficult emotions.
Mindfulness therapy is one of the most promising approaches to helping you learn how to work toward change at the core level; very different than just talking about your problems, which is not very efficient at resolving stubborn emotional reactions. If you feel stuck, mindfulness therapy will help you disengage; if you feel excessively worried and anxious, mindfulness therapy will help you find inner balance; if you feel overwhelmed, mindfulness therapy will help you neutralize your usual stress responses; If you suffer from depression, mindfulness therapy will help you neutralize the negative self-talk and thoughts. Above all, mindfulness therapy creates an inner healing space, the space of mindful awareness, which enables emotions to unfold, relax and become malleable again. Mindfulness makes it possible to change, transform and resolve emotional suffering.
Mindfulness therapy is a form of psychotherapy that focuses mindful awareness directly on the problematic emotions, effectively creating a therapeutic space around the emotion that has an immensely transformative effect. In fact, you make emotion the main object of a meditation session. That’s why it’s also called mindfulness meditation therapy (MMT).
We all know how reactivity simply makes things worse and only serves to increase our suffering along with those around us. Well, mindfulness is the antidote: it stops the spread of reactivity and then creates that inner healing space where the stuck emotional energy can become fluid again, leading to beneficial change and healing. Some clients have described this healing process as shining sunlight on a block of ice. The ice (frozen emotional energy) simply melts and the water becomes liquid again and is available to nourish the earth (your psyche). It is a beautiful image and describes the healing effect of creating inner freedom through mindfulness.
The ability to manage depression, anxiety, stress, and difficult emotions requires that you learn to develop a mindfulness-based relationship with your inner emotions. Avoidance and resistance only make things worse. In order for painful emotions like fear and trauma to heal, we must bring them into the light of mindful awareness. If we do this skillfully, with openness of mind and heart, emotions become malleable again and often change on their own. The direct healing effect of mindfulness is well known and is used to great effect in mindfulness therapy.
