Depression Counseling in Stoneham, MA.

I treat depression in a holistic and unique way that covers the person as a whole. Thoughts are powerful but sometimes our thoughts can be deceiving, impacting how we see ourselves. I use reframing techniques to identify and correct distortions the person may have formed about themselves, others, and their environment. I would also identify and work with the person to regulate emotions that may be keeping them stuck.

n addressing depression, I utilize evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, improve their mood, and enhance their interpersonal relationships. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their feelings, develop coping skills, and build a sense of hope and empowerment. By working collaboratively with clients, I strive to help them achieve lasting relief from depressive symptoms and improve their overall quality 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 leverage a solution-based approach to clearly outline your primary challenge, work through an exercise to meditate on and define your future state and then work over 8 sessions to achieve it via homework and 1:1 sessions. Clients have experienced great success with this approach, my goal is to empower you - YOU have the answers and I want to help you find them.

Repression and suppression=depression. Whether your depression is rooted in recent trauma, or has been a long term challenge, assessing how you feel, determining your triggers, and developing coping strategies with the help of a caring, experienced professional will make the difference in your quality of life. Combining psychotherapy and hypnosis is sometimes the key to changing the way that you look at life. I can help.

There are many different forms of depression as well as the triggers. The same ways also I treat different form of depression with different treatment. First clients will give the history of the disorder and symptoms in order to assess which type of depression she/he is dealing with. Then we move to set up a treatment plan to reduce symptoms of that type of depression.

If you are dragging yourself around -- no energy, no pleasure in life, overwhelmed by feelings of sadness, helplessness or worthlessness, your mind may be telling you there is no hope. But the opposite is true. Depression is very treatable. Actually 80-90 percent of people with depression report feeling better if they go for assessment, therapy, and, if appropriate, medication. Let an experienced therapist guide you. When depression lifts, your energy and interest in life increases, you restore curiosity and creativity, you're less irritable and hard on those around you, you make healthier decisions, and you're grateful again for the beauty, humor, and love in your life.

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.
