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,

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 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 can be difficult to accomplish anything when you are depressed. The smallest tasks seem impossible. Do you wish you could return to feeling like your normal self? I will help you uncover the habits, relationships, or events that have contributed to your depression. Being intentional about tuning into yourself, and a willingness to expand your comfort zone will be critical in this process. I will help you reclaim the parts of yourself that depression has stolen, and put frameworks into place to prevent it from happening again.

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. I also encourage clients to explore lifestyle choices that may help them deal with depression and other mood issues.
