Addiction of any kind has a particular hold on the person experiencing it and the people around them. It can be hard to express and even harder to honestly take a look at. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, confidential place to explore the effects of addiction. I am honest and direct but gentle with clients who are seeking help in this area. My approach is harm-reduction. Most often clients have success with cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive therapy and mindfulness. Tackling the effects of addiction and choosing to work hard to get better is a life-changing positive decision that will allow you to free yourself from unwanted behaviors and let you live the life you want.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.

If you have an addiction and are actively pursuing recovery through an addiction program of your choosing, I am happy to work with you to uncover the roots of your addictive behavior. I am not a good choice for a first line of response to recovery but I'm a good addition to your ongoing recovery work. Addiction is a way to change your emotional and mental state because you are finding your current way of being intolerable or distressing. Many addictions are fueled by underlying anxiety. I help clients discover and make sense of the foundations of their addictions in order to help them maximize their recovery process and by replacing harmful coping tools with newer, healthier ones.

Addictions have a wide range and can vary from drugs and alcohol to pornography or cell phone or video game use to love addiction in relationships. Codependency can also become a compulsive or addictive relational pattern. I work with clients struggling with addiction to have the support to address and work through the underlying emotional hurts. As clients work through and replace their addictive behaviors with healthier ones, they see their confidence return and a new ability to find and maintain healthy relationships.

We will free you of the shame and blame caused by addiction and work on behavioral strategies to prevent relapse while supporting you towards your recovery. We'll work to find ways to replace the benefits of your addiction with healthier alternatives and to surround yourself with a supportive community. I'll help you repair relationships damaged by the destructive consequences of addition and find peace, love and joy.
