Depression Counselling in Grande Prairie, AB.

Depression affects many individuals at some point in their lives. Not only can depression affect thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, it can also impact the body physically. Lisa uses a variety of approaches to treat depression, including Hypnotherapy and EMDR. Treatment of depression is not a one-size-fit all protocol, and therefore it is important to implement an approach that is custom tailored to individual client needs.

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.

Depression takes a toll on many fronts: it saps energy, generates low self-worth, creates problems in relationships, diminishes productivity and generally obscures the positive aspects of life. To make it even worse, many suffer in silence, feeling it's their fault. Well it's not. Like most afflictions, depression can usually lift with the right treatment. A combination of psychotherapy and appropriate medications usually has the best results. Please don't suffer alone.
