Depression has been called the "common cold" of emotional problems. Depressive disorders affect approximately 18.8 million American adults or about 9.5% of the U.S. population age 18 and older in a given year. Jesus invited depressed and discouraged individual to find healing in Him. It is possible to restore hope and joy. It is not necessary to continue to suffer in the darkness of despair- help is available.

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 comes in many forms and sometimes gets in the way of our goals, relationships ,families and our lives. Are you experiencing symptoms like : loss of interest in activities, appetite or weight change, loss of energy, sleep changes, and reckless behavior? This means it is to time to seek help and find a qualified mental health provider. In therapy we can discuss not just the symptoms but where they may stem from to in order to get you to a balanced, harmonious and clear headed state of mind. I offer different types of "schools of thought", depending on you and the situation, this may include Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused and a combination of Eclectic approaches.

I view depression from existential, cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, social learning, systems, and medical models. I view that shame, low self-concept, and deeper identity and existential issues often do underlie moderate and severe depression, and support SSRI or SNRI interventions for postpartum moms and clients with moderate to severe depression, with recurrence. I employ assessments and CBT homework assignments to help clients reduce their negative cognitive lens, and encourage client resilience through positive coping skills (e.g. exercise), meaning-making, and positive psychology exercises (e.g. gratitude and altruism).

If you feel depressed, you may be frustrated because you don’t know why. On the other hand, you may know why you feel depressed but the symptoms don’t subside. Many times we are still affected in the present by painful events of our past. We can’t change our past. However, we can change how the past is affecting us today. With every hurtful event comes emotional pain and a negative belief about you. In psychotherapy with me, that event can be processed in a way that removes the pain and replaces the negative belief with a positive belief of your choosing. This process can reduce and eliminate the symptoms of depression. Go to emdr.com for more information and research on this process.

If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.

As a psychologist, depression may be the most common complaint or difficulty that my clients experience. Put simply, depression can be a result of genetic/constitutional tendencies, environmental issues such as life stressors, or both. I often employ what is known as the cognitive-behavioral approach in dealing with depression, in other words looking at the relationship between negative, self-defeating thoughts, and the resulting emotion, e.g., "Stinkin' Thinkin'." I also place a large emphasis on important daily mood issues, such as sleep, diet, activity level, and receiving adequate light levels. An attitude of gratefulness is important in reducing feelings of depression.

When we uncover an experience of depression we will most certainly discover raw feelings of loss. Most often we simply want the pain to go away but our pain is actually a gift. The truth is that the way we were living before was simply not working. Counseling can serve as a tremendous catalyst for reframing our pain in order to discover the life we long to experience.

I utilize cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and interpersonal therapies to treat depression. These methods focus on addressing problematic ways of thinking and behaving which create and/or maintains depression symptoms. Depression seeps into all parts of life and it is more than 'willpower' to 'get happy.' It takes work, commitment, and a willingness to see what else life has to offer. I give clients support and encouragement to see that new possibility.
