Jeremy Pugh, LPC
About me
Dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma or grief can be difficult, as overwhelming emotions often make even simple tasks seem insurmountable. Identifying and naming emotions can be a struggle, causing the feeling of being lost and unsure of how to navigate experiences effectively. Conversely, overwhelming feelings can cloud judgment, making simple tasks seem impossible and prompting impulsive reactions when emotions are unregulated. Relationship issues can be incredibly challenging, and can lead to feelings of loneliness and hopelessness. Addiction can lead to feelings of being trapped between the desire for relief and the consequences of choices, making it difficult to break free and reclaim control. Any of these issues can create a heavy burden that affects every aspect of life, making it difficult to find hope and clarity.
I’m Jeremy Pugh, a licensed professional counselor in Texas with over 14 years of experience and I have assisted many people dealing with the issues listed above to make progress towards their goals. I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship dynamics, grief, and trauma, providing a safe and compassionate space for you to explore your feelings and experiences.
I take an empathetic, open, warm yet direct approach to counseling, believing that every client deserves respect and dignity, regardless of race, gender, age, spirituality, political or sexual identity. My nonjudgmental stance creates an environment where you can freely express yourself and explore your challenges. Recognizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship, I tailor my methods to fit your unique needs, drawing from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
I commend you for taking the courageous step toward change, and I’m here to support you on your journey. Together, we can work toward healing and personal growth, empowering you to reclaim your joy and cultivate healthier relationships. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—I look forward to the opportunity to work together!
