Grey Matters International, Inc. and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D. handles depression and other emotional disorders in a very unique way. Most of therapy or counseling processes utilize validation, unconditional positive regard, and reframing as common techniques to get someone to heal from their depression. Though this can be helpful, it rarely fixes the core problem behind it and for tough cases we then refer them usually to a psychiatrist for medication which can have tons of side effects. Instead, why not try a natural and arguably more effective way to not just change your mind, but change the brain--where the depression is rooted. Contact us at kevin@kevinflemingphd.com.

Depression is often associated with negative beliefs about oneself and the world, and EMDR can help to desensitize and reprocess these negative beliefs, leading to a more adaptive and positive worldview. Through the use of bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or tapping, EMDR can help to process the distressing memories and beliefs, reducing the intensity of the emotional response and increasing emotional resilience. By addressing the underlying negative beliefs, EMDR can help to alleviate symptoms of depression and improve overall mood and well-being.

Depression is often seen as a disorder of the person. Although there is certainly a biological component to depression, I work with individuals to reflect on how their depression can also be a response to their lived experiences. The more we understand the many components of how we are feeling and experiencing the world, the more empowered people struggling with depressive symptoms feel.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Both youth and adults can struggle with low mood or depression at different times in their lives. Sometimes it is situational, and sometimes, it just happens, for what seems like no reason at all. Coping with this is hard, and for people who experience post-concussion it can be especially difficult and impact all areas of life. Using a CBT/DBT approach to understanding these patterns that can lead to unhealthy coping patterns, I will help to develop new coping skills and patterns of joy in your life.

If you are feeling down, blue, hopeless, and are not enjoying doing any of the things you used to enjoy or often find you're just too tired to do anything, OR IF YOU FEEL LIFE IS JUST NOT WORTH LIVING, it is time to get some help from a counsellor. This sadness can lead to more complicated concerns such as clinical depression if you don't get some help. It is especially important to note that in TEENAGERS OR ADOLESCENTS these symptoms often go unrecognized because it appears to others as general teenager "moodiness and irritability". Please contact me if you or someone close to you has these symptoms. I use Cognitive Therapy as a successful tool to help with your feeling of sadness.
