Depression Counseling in Newark, TX.

Depression counseling first starts with me providing a safe and supportive space for individuals to express their feelings and experiences without judgment. Clients will learn effective strategies and develop practical skills to manage their depressive symptoms. I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs. By replacing these negative thought patterns and beliefs with more realistic and positive thoughts and beliefs, clients can experience a significant reduction in depressive symptoms and improve their overall well-being. I utilize other techniques, such as mindfulness, (EFT), and relaxation exercises.

Depression hurts. My approach is to help you learn how, through self awareness and connection to Jesus through prayer to identify the root cause of your behaviors and feelings. Once you learn this, I offer strategies to help you reframe, or adjust, your thoughts and behavior patterns to line up with the truth of God's holy word about you and your situation.

Feel terrible? No energy? Lying in bed all day long, with no motivation, no desire to do anything at all? Trying to think of a reason to go on? I understand how horrible and debilitating long-term depression is. Medication can help, but a combination of medication and face-to-face counseling can be the best route toward having a life again. If you can work up the energy to get to my office, we can talk about what you can do to start feeling better, a little at a time.

There are reasons you have arrived here. They likely aren't your fault, and it wouldn't matter if they were. You need help getting out. Before trying to simply medicate you, I want to know your story. Depression feels like we're been swimming across a large body of water, too far from shore, and now we are out of energy. The only way out is with the help of others. If depression is usually connected to isolation, why would we treat it in isolation? First, I want to help you explore what you can do in your relationships.

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.

You'll discover a secure, accepting environment to explore your thoughts and get acceptance for your experiences via depression counseling or treatment with me.

You will receive dependable support from our therapeutic alliance as we guide you through the difficulties of depression and help you avoid solitude. Whether or whether medicine is a part of your treatment plan, I'm dedicated to your growth and well-being at every stage.

Research shows that the most effective treatment for depression is psychotherapy. Depression can range from feeling down to major symptoms such as having trouble even getting out of bed or contemplating suicide (if you have suicidal thoughts or plans, call the National Suicide Prevention Line at 1-800-273-8255). Online counseling is effective for depression because it is easy to access: you can start treatment without even leaving the house.

Although we all experience times of stress, sadness and worry, a more chronic struggle with depression and anxiety can significantly impact an individual’s life. The feelings of isolation and fear that accompany these can leave a person feeling hopeless, scared and overwhelmed. Here at Relfections Counseling of Denton we strive to help each client work through these struggles and regain healthy control through a combination of cognitive behavioral techniques, family systems perspective and an accepting and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an evidenced-based psychotherapy. ACT utilizes mindfulness practices to increase awareness and develop acceptance and compassion in the presence of painful thoughts and feelings. ACT is especially helpful for addressing feelings of depression because it teaches a way to develop a new relationship with pain and suffering.

There is help for depression. Even if you are feeling hopeless, don't give up. Get help. If you feel a loss of energy, tired a good bit of the time, a lack of interest in what you used to enjoy,difficulty thinking, concentrating, or making decisions, you may be depressed. I am trained to help you resolve these feelings and create the life you want. You don't have to stay stuck in the pain of depression. Your Tomorrow Can Feel Better Than Today.

If you’re feeling down, are lacking motivation, or lacking motivation, you’re not alone. The demands of work and home life can take a toll on any man. Not many understand the unique pressures you face, and this can be frustrating, lonely, and isolating. Whether you feel like things are falling apart, or you’re still hiding it pretty well, there is hope. 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.

Depression takes so many forms. Sometimes you don't realize you have been in a depression until someone else points it out to you. In counseling, I will help in guiding you to a place of comfort and hope. Together we will conquer depression and move forward in your journey to achieving your goals and living a more fulfilled life. I use a cognitive behavioral approach so we will discuss your thoughts behaviors and feelings and how they are interconnected. When we change one we can change the others. Having this awareness can create a power to change to lift you out of the dark depression and into the light of happiness.

I foster a safe and empathetic space where clients can openly express their emotions and challenges. I utilize evidence-based techniques to help clients understand the root causes of their depression, develop effective coping strategies, and cultivate resilience. Through personalized therapy sessions, clients can gain insights, learn valuable tools, and work towards a more balanced and fulfilling life, free from the grip of depression.

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.

Depression can be sadness but also can be lack of motivation or energy to do life leading to low self esteem. We can work together to strategize ways to improve motivation and energy. We will examine you thoughts and beliefs as related to your depression to see if they are contributing to your lack of motivation and poor self esteem. As your energy and motivation improve, self esteem may also improve. Finding the energy to engage life can decrease depression symptoms.
