Depression can be deeply painful, robbing you of energy, motivation, and hope. It creates a negative view of life, your self, and your future.

Coaching you to refocus, set small daily goals, celebrate your successes, and learn new behavioral and thinking skills can take time but the good news is that once you have acquired these skills you have them for life.

Depression is so very common in people seeking therapy, and it is also a thief which steals our quality of life from us. It steals our joy and happiness, our energy and motivation, and sometimes even our desire to live.

Counselling or therapy, particularly Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, can help. I have seen depression in action and it helps me appreciate how much it can hurt. I have deep compassion and believe in your capacity to heal. I will never tell you to "just get over it" and can make recommendations that will help.

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.
