Overview of Online Mindfulness Therapy:

Online Mindfulness Therapy is a type of counselling that can address a range of psychological issues through learning and using evidence-based mindfulness techniques in one-on-one and group sessions. Specifically, two important aspects of mindfulness are openness and curiosity because they raise awareness by encouraging the exploration of thoughts, feelings, and the environment, which results in a more comprehensive understanding of experiences. Being open-minded encourages a mindset that lowers resistance to experiencing new things. By the same token, curiosity enhances mindfulness practice by encouraging personal development and present-moment engagement. All things considered, these attributes lead to greater fulfilment in life.

Key Aspects of mindfulness therapy:

• Online Therapy: We use Zoom to bridge geographical distance, making sessions easily accessible. It would help if you had a stable Internet connection and compatible devices. Note, however, that online therapy may not be appropriate for all psychological conditions or may require integration with other therapy modes.
• Mindfulness Therapy: The core focus is on developing judgment-free, present-moment awareness. This entails paying attention to your feelings, emotions, ideas, and senses without getting caught up in them.
• Selected techniques and methods: In our practice, Online Mindfulness Therapy may involve body scans (This technique involves mindfully scanning what is happening in your body at a given time and noticing where the stress sits), mindful breathing, and mindful movement to enhance focus, emotional regulation, and stress reduction. Although we do not offer it in our practice, Yoga and guided meditation are also great mindfulness practices.
• Versatility: Online Mindfulness Therapy can be used to address a broad range of psychological health issues, including anxiety, dysthymia, depression, stress, trauma, PTSD, chronic pain, and sleep difficulties – or some mix of them.

Benefits of Online Mindfulness Therapy:

In short, Online Mindfulness Therapy offers accessibility, convenience, comfort, and privacy.

Deciding whether to use Online Mindfulness Therapy:

Mindfulness techniques are well-endorsed as being an effective and relatively safe counselling mode. Nonetheless, we endeavour to anticipate and explain any potential risks or concerns that may be relevant in a person’s individual circumstances. It will be your decision whether or not you wish to proceed.

N.B. Because not everyone can afford standard counselling fees, we may be able to negotiate a fee which is affordable for you.

In Conclusion:

Online Mindfulness Therapy is an excellent way of helping people develop the underlying knowledge and skills for practising mindfulness. This, in turn, can enhance one’s quality of life and wellbeing.
