Depression Counseling in Flat Rock, MI.

Although it may seem that you are alone and no one understands you, depression is quite common -- I too have had a personal struggle with depression. The good news is, depression is also very treatable. I can help you develop practical tools to help manage your symptoms, while offering a safe, confidential and nonjudgmental environment in which you can express your feelings openly and honestly.

You did not choose to be depressed and it’s not something most people can simply “shake off.” Depression is real. It’s life altering and can trick you in to believing that you can never be happy again. I am here to help. I would be honored to walk with you as we challenge the narrative of your depression while acknowledging how incredibly hard and real it is. You are not alone, and hope can be the beginning to your own healing.

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.

Feeling overwhelmed? Lost in a darkness that you cannot explain. Irritable. Trying to feel a void through overspending and buying unnecessary things? Depression manifests differently and is not only displayed by feeling sad all the time. We will start by gauging the severity of your symptoms and discuss how severely they are affecting your daily life. Then we will go over coping skills to help you crawl out of the darkness and into the light to have energy and joy in your life again!
