Depression Counseling in Dania Beach, FL.

I utilize relational approach in working with clients with issues of depression. Client explore the meanings of depression in terms of physiological, psychological, or relationships connectivity. Clients examine steps that have worked in managing symptoms, or not worked. Through the process of therapy, clients become aware of skills to manage and optimize functioning; thereby reinforcing that depression is the problem and they are not the problem. As such, they explore and implement healthy life choices in controlling the symptoms with medication management, social engagements, exercising, relaxation, prioritizing, time management, and identify a safe person to help reflect arising needs.

Therapy helps people with depression: Understand the behaviors, emotions, and ideas that contribute to his or her depression. Understand and identify the life problems or events -- like a major illness, a death in the family, a loss of a job or a divorce -- that contribute to their depression and help them understand which aspects of those problems they may be able to solve or improve Restructure ways of thinking, negative attributes and attitudes someone has about himself, and ways in which faulty thinking may perpetuate depression. Regain a sense of control and pleasure in life. Learn coping techniques and problem-solving skills

Depression is both common and very treatable. I use proven techniques to help people recover and even grow stronger when they are depressed. Depression is considered to be an illness. I tend to view depression as a coping mechanism. We often react to life's problems by retreating into depression. Depression is not really a feeling - it's more like hopelessness and powerlessness. It doesn't feel like it, but there is hope! I help people to change the way they think about themselves and their situations, and teach them tools that result in feelings of empowerment and even self-love.

Depression can make it difficult to make the changes that you know are good for you. The lack of energy makes it hard to do what may make you feel better. In my over two decades of working with individuals I have been able to help people understand why they are feeling the way are and begin to make the changes that make sense to them. Using cognitive behavioral techniques and getting to the root of the depression helps. Having someone compassionate and caring walk through this with you makes all the difference.

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 we think of depression as being "stuck"or being "at the bottom of a pit." I believe that strategies for avoiding or withdrawing from the dull pain of depression often contain the very hooks that keep the blues rigidly in place. I work with you to explore the situational, contextual, and emotional aspects of your depression and collaborate with you to get unstuck, raise the bottom of the pit to a better place for you, and ban the blues for good.

While you may feel like things cannot get any better from where you presently sit, I will work with you to start observing small but positive changes in your life to lead you towards more enjoyable and healthy living.

Depression can be highly incapacitating. It may not only affect every day functioning (increased work absenteeism, lack of energy, decreased pleasure, and reduced productivity, etc.), but also a person’s physical health (higher propensity for illness and worse prognosis for such chronic illnesses as asthma, arthritis, diabetes, cancer and heart disease). We approach the treatment of depression practicing an eclectic approach that includes: the exploration and Socratic questioning of negative views of self, and the world and the future, the revaluation and modification of these views, the exploration of deeply rooted feelings of abandonment and loss that can be fueling the depressive outlook, and....

Depression can be situational, episodic or in severe cases chronic. I work with people in each of these situations. I will identify the current symptoms and explore how daily life and current relationships are being affected. I may administer specific tests to accurately assess the level of depression and to understand the root causes of the depression. The benefits of your treatment will include using science-based interventions, collaborating with primary care physicians when necessary, and you will also experience increased energy, insights, and enjoyment of life’s pleasures.

We have an epidemic of depression in our culture. Depression has it's roots in how we learn to express our feelings...or not express them. We are often taught that it's ok to feel happy, but not sad. Keep that smile on your face. Don't air dirty laundry in public. Not being able to express your feelings can easily lead to depression. When you become depressed, your brain chemistry gets out of whack, and everything begins to become effected. I can help you understand and work through the causes and effects of depression.

Children as young as three years can experience sadness and irritability. Young children may not be able to express their emotional distress verbally and that is why I use play therapy. Expressions of worthlessness, self-blame suicidal ideation need to be evaluated. Disruptions in sleep, appetite, motor activity are some signs of depression. Sometimes they show little pleasure in their usually enjoyable activities.

Fortunately, treatment for depression is available and a person can get much better, often quickly, with regular effective treatment. The treatment of depression can include medication, psychotherapy, diet and exercise and many other strategies that help people overcome the symptoms of depression while addressing the underlying causes. I use a very active and holistic approach to this problem, coming at it from a comprehensive perspective.

Clients will deal with the underlying issues and causes for their depression, as they explore their self identity in the way they think, behave, and relate to their world. Contributing factors to clients' depression will be explored from their past and present collectively and clients will be able to identify them and deal with their impact in their lives, as they find the courage to walk through a path of inner healing of their soul (mind, emotions, will) and spirit.

Depression is a term that we throw around casually to express our overwhelming sadness or frustration with a situation, yet if you have ever suffered from clinical depression you know that it amounts to much more. The darkness, and isolation experienced by a person with clinical depression can significantly impact the most treasured and important part of themselves. Sometimes people express that they are a shell of themselves or that their true self has been kidnapped by depression.

Depression is something that everyone virtually experiences, but most people in the general population experience only what is often referred to as the ups and downs of life. A segment of the population experiences clinical depression, which is a more severe type of depression, that often interferes with a person's overall sens of well-being. It is important to understand the nature of a client's depression, so that appropriate steps and interventions can be taken. I conduct a thorough investigation into the causes that may be associated with the feelings and symptoms of depression.

Depression is the leading mental illness today. It is easy for those who have never suffered from depression to set in judgment on those who do.

Here at Gateway we help you discover the event and process through it. We explore whether that event was in the past, the present or a combination of the two. We also help you assess the severity of the depression and then together agree on the best treatment plan for it. There is hope for the depressed person. We are here to help restore it to you.
