Research has provided significant evidence that depression can be improved or even eliminated with a wide range of interventions. Although many believe that the “gold standard” treatment for depression is medication and talk therapy, I believe that the least intrusive intervention should be targeted first. Try talking to a therapist before getting medication prescribed. I will help you examine how you’re thinking about the problem may be actually supporting your depression, how your relationships may be contributing to your sense of sadness and frustration and how you can begin to make concrete behavioral modifications to begin the path to recovery. Recent studies show that medication is most eff....

Dealing with depression can be one of the most difficult obstacles an individual can face. My approach to working with depression is starting where you are. I begin simply by listening to you. Form there we can work on the basics, sleep schedule, diet, and exercise. Depression can be beaten with patience and consistency. I have found success using several forms of treatment for depression, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and psychodynamic theory. The goal is to stop the cycle of negative emotions causing negative thoughts and then negative thoughts causing negative emotions. It's a difficult cycle but together we can recognize unhealthy patterns and change them.

Depression leaves us feeling stuck, unable to function, with feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. One can often feel irritable and angry with difficulty sleeping. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms the earliest intervention is the best. Don't let these symptoms get any more ingrained without reaching out for the help that is necessary to move beyond. Research shows that the best approach to treatment for depression is talk therapy and medication management (if appropriate and not advisable for all individuals} We can explore the best approach for you. Sometimes depression is exasperated by past traumatic life events we can address those needs as well.

I have a lot of background in treating patients with depression.

Depression sucks. It can make you feel hopeless, empty, and alone, even when things in your life are going well. Whether your depression is chemical, situational, or a combination of both, I can help you find ways to act against that depressed feeling and take steps towards feeling better. It is common for Depression to impact your sense of self-worth, and vice versa. Thus the most effective therapeutic treatment for Depression is to re-focus on the traits and values that define who you are as a person separate from that feeling; you can then use those strengths to fight the Depression and get back to feeling like your old self again. I specialize in treating Post-Partum Depression as well.

Explaining depression to someone who has never suffered from it is like explaining blue to a blind person; virtually impossible. It is not just sadness and negativity but a serious medical issue that can ravage your life. You can no sooner "snap out" of depression than you can from cancer. I believe that therapy coupled with anti-depressant medication is the most successful treatment for this painful condition.

From there I will work on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors working towards short terms goals. Goals will include small behavior changes that will help to be building blocks and also cognitive work on realistic truths.

I think that my most important technique is to assist individuals in recognizing that depression is a condition and is not a form of laziness; many individuals have expressed a sense of relief as others have encouraged them to "just get over it". I utilize a combination of support and encouragement, including discussions of successes and challenges. I strongly discourage the use of the word "should" and any judgmental language. In addition, I believe that there is no specific time table for recovery, and that each individual is unique in their recovery.

Depression. This form of mood disorder is extremely common among the clients I see. I meet the client where he/she is at. We take time to look at they triggers for the depressive response.

Depression is seen by some as a biochemical imbalance that is genetically transferred to the individual and can only be treated through medication. This might be part of the picture, but also a depressive, negative style of thinking can result in changes in the brain that bring about this unhealthy biochemical imbalance - and psychological treatment can change the thinking style that leads to this imbalance, rendering the individual to be free of reliance on medication and overall improved life that lasts on it's own merits.

Depression can affect us both mentally and physically.

This is not to stay that we are doomed to a vicious cycle, as I also strongly believe that we have the ability to change our thoughts and behaviors, thereby decreasing our depressive state. Depression does not have to be a way of life, and I enjoy helping others finding the joy in their lives again.

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.

Sometimes people feel depresed and can atribute it to stressful events that have occured, other times people can't quite put their finger on why they feel depressed, they just know they're not happy, feel unmotivated, and in some cases hopeless and helpless.

Successfully treating depression has been an important factor in our success. We believe strongly that a marriage is impacted by depression and/or anxiety in a partner. Thus we treat the underlying depression as a cornerstone of the marriage. Our success with depression is very high, due to a strategy to treat the underlying cause of the depression for a long-term result. We approach depression in a holistic manner, looking at intelligent lifestyle choices as critical to mental health. Many patients are wishing to avoid medications, if permitted by their physicians, or augment their results, which we have had exceptional success with, with even years long, resistant depression.
