Treatment of Cryptocurrency Trading Addiction
Investing in cryptocurrencies is becoming easier by the day and can be achieved within seconds without middlemen such as brokers. The trading of cryptocurrencies is also available to a majority of people, as one can start off by investing very low amounts of fiat currency. The deregulated nature of the market and the associated price fluctuations can however cause a lot of distress for investors.
In addition, the ease in which apps such as Blockfolio allow to check for price movements can quickly become addictive in that it allows for a temporary escape of reality without having any easily noticeable physical consequences. Addictive tendencies can be further fostered by exchanging / shorting cryptocurrencies with the hopes of profiting from strong fluctuations and due to the vast amount of investment possibilities out there, this can become and increasingly life consuming task.

Remote Based CBTEveryone is different, so problems can be related to addiction, anxiety, depression, something else or a combination of the aforementioned. Further to this you could have ten people with symptoms of anxiety tied to cryptocurrencies, whilst the underlying mechanisms that keep anxieties going could vary greatly.
I therefore emphasise having a good understanding of your difficulties in order to be able to offer a tailored approach based on concepts of Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy. This therapy uses concepts from behaviourism in order to offer a straight forward and scientific approach. I have been running a successful private practice from the Priory (which is specialised in treating addictions, depression and anxiety) until 2019 and currently run a full time practice in Richmond, London. I have been invested in cryptocurrencies since 2013 and providing internet based therapy since 2012. I am therefore able to offer knowledge in both psychotherapy and cryptocurrencies. |
If you are interested in arranging a session then please refer to the contact page above. I accept payments in Ether, Bitcoin and BnB. The price is £ 95 for remote based CBT for cryptocurrency addiction therapy and £ 110 for face to face crypto therapy.
