Depression Counseling in Seven Points, TX.

The research coming out of Stanford University, from Dr. Robert Sapolsky in particular, looks at depression through the lens of adaptation. We use his research findings and the idea that your depression means something biologically, socially and psychologically. We look at ways to help you holistically heal mind-body-soul and problem-solve those areas of your life that result in energy conservation, or depression. We look at natural remedies that can be used to invigorate your physical functioning in addition to addressing cognitions and interpersonal strategies to help you move out of conservation and into expressing your life energy.

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.

I work with clients experiencing clinical and/or situational depression. We use a combination of CBT, EMDR and other modalities to uncover the roots of depression and to make us aware of our triggers and thought patterns. Through self-awareness and self-compassion, clients discover new ways of looking at their world which align with their values.

I work with a depressed nervous system by working with the body. Often we struggle to sleep, eat, or accomplish relatively simple tasks. Our bodies are stuck with the brake on. When our body thinks it is futile, out mind follows quickly thereafter and we begin to tell ourselves how pointless things are and how worthless we are. I work with the whole body to re-regulate the body to enable you to get back to a whole integrated self.
