Depression Counseling in Russell, MA.

My Client's depression is often a product of frustration and anger becoming jammed up inside them. As it continues, feelings of hopeless and helplessness become stories that they are victims and without power, sort of "dead in the water." I see depression as psychologically coming from anger that is jammed up inside, but it can also come from lack of sleep or lack of exercise. Medical issues should not be ignored.

I approach treating depression from a place of compassion and understanding for all parts of you in this struggle with depression. I often treat from an emotionally focused perspective and integrate internal family systems and mindfulness work as is fitting for the client. I look forward to helping you gain a better connection and secure attachment within yourself even in the midst of a really difficult season of life.

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.
