Depression Counseling in Kyle, TX.

I integrate a variety of treatments and models, such as CBT, DBT, Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), and EMDR to provide clients with effective treatment options, to achieve insights that may have been elusive otherwise. Ketamine's rapid antidepressant effects can facilitate breakthroughs in therapy sessions, while EMDR can effectively process and reframe past experiences contributing to depression. Having a variety of approaches allows clients to delve into their emotional experiences and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Through these modalities, clients can experience relief from depressive symptoms and achieve long-lasting emotional healing and resilience.

I often use EMDR therapy and a faith-based perspective to help men uncover and heal the source of their issues, and discover their peace, hope, and motivation in life. One of the insidious parts of depression is that while you’re in the fog, it’s hard to be objective. I will help you walk through this fog until we get to the other side.

Sometimes we feel depression due to events in our life either past, present or both. Other times, we are genetically predisposed to biochemical depression. The data in the field suggests that therapy can be very effective in treating depressive symptoms. If it a circustance that impacts our depressive state, we work together in therapy to put a plan together to change the circumstance. If it is a biochemical issue, we explore many resources, including psychotropic medication in tandem with therapy for treatment.

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.

I know of nothing worse than daily slogging toward a dark and fruitless future. Feeling like the weight of life is pressing down, gasping for breath least we drown.

At Life Practice we shed light on how both aspects work independently and in concert with one another providing resources and discovery for a brighter tomorrow.

Research shows that the most effective treatment for depression is psychotherapy.
