We help our client to overcome or manage depression symptoms through holding safe space for them to work through difficult emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. Depression can be caused by many different factors and can be temporary or chronic.

David’s work in helping people to heal ongoing depression and or anxiety disorders, includes a variety of holistic practices.

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.

It is so very hard when you feel down so much of the time. As a highly trained clinical psychologist, I can help lessen depression. First, I create a safe space where you can vent your stress. Second, we identify both the past and present source(s) of your depression. Third, together we design ways in which your bad mood can start to improve. And throughout this process you have a highly trained psychologist at your side, providing genuine support and guidance every step of the way,

Depression can immobilize, it takes! What is missing, what have you lost, why is there hopelessness? What does the depression look like, what does it do, how does it make you act, and how does it affect you and the people you love? What has been swallowed up in that big black vast hole? Is the depression ever gone, what were you doing when it was driven away, how long was it vanished, and what was the glimpse of hope you saw? When working with depression a key concept is to ask questions. The answers to the questions are where we find the solutions. I recognize that the individuals I see are the experts in their lives. I partner with them them in therapy to bring about change.

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 utilize a cognitive-behavioral therapy approach that focuses on the thought patterns that keep clients stuck in their depression. Many times we get trapped into thinking there is no hope. Thus in therapy I offer my clients empowering tools that motivate them to believe and have faith in themselves, accomplish their goals and desires, and have better relationships with the people in their lives that support them.
