Depression Counseling in Spencer, OK.

Everyone feels depressed symptoms at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although depression can feel debilitating, it is treatable. I will coach you in mindfulness, positive psychology, and somatic exercises to help you get into your body and out of your vigilance (worried mind). I often incorporate meditation and breathing work in my sessions. All clients are given homework so they may be proactive between appointments to achieve results. While we personalize therapy plans to meet the needs of individuals; therapy will include the following for everyone: carefully analyzing the root of problems, boundary setting, and goal setting.

Depression is a mood disorder that can cause a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest that can interfere with daily functioning. Reaching out for help is a step towards wellness. Symptoms of depression can vary from person to person, but it is a very treatable condition. Therapy for depression helps you overcome the feelings of hopelessness and despair and to gain control of your life.

I see depression as the absence of hope. We can begin to heal by looking at hope not as a wish for better days, but as a renewable resource one that must cultivate and create through realistic goals, a path to meet those goals, and the motivation to travel that path. Sometimes we find our path to hope blocked by troubling memories or experiences from our past. I can help you confront and clear those road blocks.

Depression is a very general term and to define it without clarity is a not a good thing. Like everything, we have to find the trigger points; when and how it generates the "sliding down the hill", so to speak. As commonly noted, depression is believing a string of lies, mixed in with some reality and truth. These must be separated for us to resolve each experience. WOW, I see so many lives changed, as I just listen and see what is going on.

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
