Depression Counseling in Oak Ridge, NC.

If you feel like you cannot get out of bed in the morning, feel like you are in quick-sand or no longer feel the energy to do the things that you once cared about, you may be suffering from depression. Depression is a major energy zapping condition. I can help you discover what is the reason for your depression whether it is circumstantial, chemical or environmental. I am here to help you find the solution to getting better.

I treat depression a number of customized ways, including creating with my client strategies/ techniques to lessen the intensity and duration of the depressive episode, finding effective affirmations and self-talk as well as exploring and healing the early sources of the issue. I greatly value being with my client in their struggles, and their knowing they are not alone.

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.
