Depression Counseling in Morgan's Point Resort, TX.

Depression is sadly common in the human experience. It is often referred to as the common cold of human emotions. It does not have to run or ruin your life however. Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the many tools I utilize to help people move through their depression to a place of hope and resilience. At the core of so much depression is a private belief system, that, when transformed, can alleviate much suffering. I can help you transform that private logic that misguides you, resulting in depression. You can gain a new perspective and ditch the messages that drag you down.

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 feel depression due to events in our life either past, present or both. Other times, we are genetically predisposed to biochemical depression. The data in the field suggests that therapy can be very effective in treating depressive symptoms. If it a circustance that impacts our depressive state, we work together in therapy to put a plan together to change the circumstance. If it is a biochemical issue, we explore many resources, including psychotropic medication in tandem with therapy for treatment.

My approach with depressed clients involves several areas. First, I assess relevant history and the person's current life situation, in order to evaluate possible factors which may be contributing to the depressive symptoms. Specific depressive symptoms are identified, including areas such as crying spells, sleep disturbance, appetite changes, decreased motivation, etc. Although background factors are important to review, my approach to treating depression involves a major focus on the present situation. Next, I assess what changes I can recommend to the client to begin addressing right now. These could be needed relationship changes, better health habits, or to end harmful behaviors.
