Depression has an element of the past living in the now. Hope is lost if all we can see, feel or remember is how things were. How things went wrong. How things were bad. How things were better. It is easy to stop doing things that bring us a feeling of fulfillment and comfort and slip into seemingly unending......nothing. Nothing changes, nothing is better, nothing helps. The past can be a great opportunity to learn or change but it belongs where it is.

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.
