I remember hearing a professor share the difference between depression and other emotional states. She said that depression is similar to a deep, dark, hopeless pit. And sadly, many have and will experience this at some time in their lives. Many of the people who seek me out for treatment of depression are often experiencing a multitude of feelings which are difficult to express. When not expressed, the are held in and seem to 'grow', often overwhelming a person and leaving them uncertain of how to resolve it. I support my clients in finding ways to verbalize their emotions because I believe that this minimizes the power of the emotion. Shall we talk about the feeling of depression?

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.
