About Jeremy

Jeremy Pugh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and issues around intimacy and relationships. He works with men and others concerned about self-esteem, parenting, sleeping and eating problems, ADHD, and career stress. Jeremy aims to make difficult days feel more manageable with straightforward support and practical steps.

He uses a warm, direct style in sessions. Jeremy focuses on helping people name emotions, recognize patterns that lead to impulsive choices, and build skills to respond differently. He listens without judgment while offering clear options for change.

Jeremy draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on each person’s goals. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to regulate intense emotions. Mindfulness exercises and Motivational Interviewing help when motivation or self-doubt gets in the way.

Over 16 years in practice, Jeremy has supported people through trauma, relationship strain, addiction, and major life transitions. He emphasizes practical tools people can use between sessions and helps them track progress over time.

Sessions are offered in English from his Texas practice. Jeremy encourages people to take the first step even when it feels hard, and to set small, realistic goals that build from early successes.

How Jeremy’s approaches translate to online work

Jeremy often uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with people online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to each person’s priorities so the work matches their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers step-by-step strategies to change unhelpful patterns.

He may also use Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive reactions. DBT techniques teach practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be useful for relationship strain, addiction struggles, and high anxiety.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jeremy works with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. He adjusts pacing and tools based on what helps the person feel safer and more able to make steady progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Jeremy focuses on practical skills that translate to everyday life, so online sessions aim to make skill practice and follow-up simple and useful.
