I was born in Dallas and I have lived in several urban cities including: New Orleans, LA; Washington, D.C.; Jersey City, NJ; and New York City. I received my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Howard University. I am particularly sensitive to the challenges of children and adults with mental health and challenges, including domestic/family violence and child abuse. I have over 15-years experience as a therapist. Contemplating counseling for the first time can be a scary decision. Many people have no idea what to expect. The counseling process requires developing a trustworthy relationship between the therapist and the client; and it is the therapist’s responsibility to develop and cultivate that relationship. As a therapist, it is my responsibility to unconditionally accept you as you are, which includes not being judgmental. Thus, creating a safe and nurturing counseling relationship. As human beings, our experiences are unique to us. We experience and view the world from our lens, which impacts how we perceive ourselves and others. Unfortunately, because we are all unique, people around us also develop perceptions about us which may not be an accurate representation of who we are or our true intentions. Sometimes, our perceptions lead to miscommunication and misconceptions; thereby impacting our ability to connect and develop healthy relationships. Typically, perceptions are based on our experiences and our experiences are not always favorable or pleasant. Occasionally, our experiences are traumatic and abusive. For some, trauma and abuse occur so regularly that it becomes the norm and ultimately impacts social, interpersonal, and intimate relationships. Counseling is the process of becoming awakened to our true selves to better understand how our personal experiences influence who we are. Our personal experiences are impacted by our family of origin, racial and cultural/ethnic group, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, etc. Because many aspects of one’s life may be explored, including childhood experiences, the process of counseling may feel uncomfortable and intrusive, at times. However, it is important to trust the process and know that every counseling session will not feel good. There are times that as a client, you may feel sad or hurt and become tearful; you may be excited and feel happy; you may be confused and feel hopeless. However, know that in the end, if you trust the process, you will hopefully learn something new about yourself that you never considered. Thus, leading to fulfillment in your life in areas including your relationships and family dynamics that ultimately, enhance your self-worth.

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!
