Although depression is one of the most common mental health challenges, my approach is to help others overcome feelings of hopelessness and find the energy to discover the good news that it is treatable. In addition to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I use a combination of Interpersonal Therapy to resolve grief and interpersonal dysfunction as well as several Psychodynamic approaches to engage the client in introspection about past issues so that the client is able to put their problems in proper perspective and live free of depression. While I believe psychotherapy is the most effective intervention for depression, there are times when drug treatment is necessary to be included.

If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.

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.
