In my practice, I use a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of my clients' lives. I see each client as having inherent dignity and worth and this shapes my approach in every way. My hope is that each of my clients can show up as they are, being free to explore thoughts and feelings, connect with their faith/spirituality, and develop the skills necessary to live a more fulfilling life.

I am a practising Catholic. I use a common sense approach and I respect all religions. There is no right or wrong religion. My faith has helped me many times during my lengthy career. For 14 years I was a consultant with the BC Coroner's Office and I did psychological autopsies of teens that either committed suicide or were suspected of committing suicide. Many times my faith gave me the strength to support those grieving parents in the most terrible time of their lives.

While most Christian Counselors pride themselves on how many Scriptural passages they can recite and how many links they can make from the Bible to psychological disorders, the Christian-centric work of Grey Matters International, Inc.is grounded in one principle: truth. For us, the work is more about truth and transparency of Christ's message and working on the natural laws of accountability and decision making that evolves from that. If one honors God's natural laws of reaping and sowing around the decisions one makes, one is indeed living Scripture to its fullest. We prepare the brain to better maximize the spiritual realities of Christ's words. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com.

When clients specifically request our counselling sessions to have a Christian focus I am able to integrate scriptual teaching & Christian counselling research within the broader field of psychotherapy assessment & treatment. When I take a Christian approach I find that therapy works towards alleviating psychological stressors while helping people to appropriate a deeper understanding & appreciation of the grace of God.

In today's society there are many clients Ive met who have felt rejected by the dogmatic and punitive mindsets of other "Christians." Understandably this has caused tremendous pain to people searching for unconditional acceptance. I assure you that throughout my life in professional study and personal experience I have felt the same sense of rejection and religiosity. I will support you to find the Truth, support and unconditional source of Love you seek. I was raised "Christian" with all the rules but eventually came to the end of such delusions and performance driven behaviors. It was in my darkest time that I came to understand the REAL Truth. Let's talk

I am a Bible-believing Evangelical Christian of 40 years. Yet, I welcome people of all faiths or no faith because I am neither a priest or minister, but a counsellor here to serve you. I openly identify myself as a Christian, because I believe it's fair for you to know my bias. Therefore, if I am working with a Christian client, I will join you in open prayer as you request. If I am working with a non-believer, I will engage you at YOUR level of meaning and purpose. My goal is to help you break free of whatever is holding you back.

Biblically based counseling integrates faith and spirituality with evidence-based therapeutic practices to address life’s challenges. My approach draws on scriptural wisdom and Christian values to guide the healing process while respecting each client’s unique journey. Together, we’ll explore how faith can offer strength, purpose, and hope, while developing practical tools for emotional and spiritual growth. Clients benefit from a compassionate, Christ-centered approach that fosters deeper connection with God, personal transformation, and a sense of peace and direction rooted in their beliefs.
