Depression is perhaps one of the most debilitating emotions one can feel. People living with depression often experience feelings of loneliness, uselessness and hopelessness. Activities that were once enjoyable now require much more energy to do, and no longer make you happy. There is help for you or your loved one. Naudeya takes a cognitive behavioral approach to treating depression. This approach focuses on identifying and challenging underlying negative thoughts and/or beliefs that have fueled depression symptoms, while also developing behavioral skills to change these beliefs and improve moods. To schedule an appointment with Naudeya call TR Counseling & Wellness at 203-819-7650.

Feelingings of depression can be organically or situationally based. Organic depression has a strong heritability factor, with everyday stressors exasperating it. Situational depression is triggered by transitions in people’s lives where their current coping mechanisms are not strong enough to create the resilience and ongoing fortitude required to counteract the mood shift. For 30+ years in clinical practice, I have assisted my clients in understanding how to embrace their mood states and build cognitive belief patterns and behavioral routines that allow them to feel that they are in charge of their life and that the depression does not own them.

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.
