I have helped adult, adolescent and children struggling with depression and mood disorders become happier and more productive through the use of cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, narrative, acceptance and commitment, and mindfulness-based therapies.

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

Many of the clients who come to me experiencing depression feel a sense of shame. They say "I have everything I wanted in life; the family, the job, the finances, the home". These clients often wait too long to reach out because they feel they "shouldn't be depressed". Depression is an equal opportunity illness. No amount of money, security or education will protect us from being a potential candidate, especially if we have a family history.
