Coach/Change Agent/Consultant
Rochester, New York 14608 | 1-877-606-6161
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.

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

It can often seem like society expects us to be happy and positive at all times, that any admission of sadness or a loss of motivation, energy, or engagement with life is a personal failure. But Depression isn't a personal failure, and it is also more than just "feeling sad". If you find yourself down in the hole of disconnection, surrounded by a fog that is interfering with your life and relationships, you need a hand to help you climb out. A trained therapist understands the mechanics of depression and can help you understand it and find strategies to make your way up and out of it, and back into the light. Please contact me so we can begin to work on this process together.

Online Office, Rochester, New York 14602 | 5183315459
Sadness comes in many forms, to let us know something about our lives that isn't working. We've been socialized to think there's something wrong with us, that we're imbalanced. I believe that while this has merit, it skips over the uniqueness of our situation and the way we adapted to early experiences in order to survive. We're here to help you uncover this nuance and to incorporate different stories about yourself. We can help. We're with you and we're here to help you be with you. Get in touch with us today.

Depression can range from being draining to being completely debilitating. Wherever you land on that spectrum, so much of depression involves negative thinking of oneself, others, and the world. Talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy are research-backed successful tools in providing support for those experiencing depression. I use talk therapy to provide a space for clients to share their feelings and things that either lead to or are affected by their feelings of depression. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify and shift negative thinking patterns as well as behaviors, which ultimately creates a more positive cycle in ones life and decreases symptoms of depression.

As a therapist it is necessary to meet a client where they are at in sessions. Negative thinking and self talk is at the core of all depression. In sessions individuals learn to restructure their thought processes and behaviors so they look upon their future with hope. Through cognitive restructuring and implementing tools that are taught in sessions individuals are able to work through their issues and concerns in a safe and nurturing counseling environment.
Depression Counselor
Sarah Beren, LCAT
Licensed Creative Arts Therapist
2376 Monroe Avenue, Rochester, New York 14618 | 585-430-9877
Most individuals who come to therapy have a history of trauma, although many don't realize it. As a result, adults who have experienced childhood emotional neglect and other abuse often struggle to be their authentic self and to allow themselves to feel and validate their emotional experiences. This often leads to depression. Here at Spotted Rabbit we take a holistic approach to treating depression. We look at how our past and present lived experiences impact us, review the stories we continue to tell about ourselves, explore how our actions align with our values, and shift our relationships and environment to better meet our needs.

Depression can be isolating and, most often, results in a sense of helplessness--as if you are in a hole and unable to dig or climb yourself out. I provide a sense of emotional safety and security where one can begin to explore the origins of their depression and how to overcome those overwhelming feelings. Through talk therapy, and various methods such as cognitive behavior and acceptance, one can reduce their alienation and begin to acquire a sense of hope. Learning coping strategies and self-empowerment also achieves a sense of ability with regard to being in the present and moving toward the future.
