About Jeremy
Jeremy Pugh is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, parenting challenges, and relationship struggles. He practices in Texas and brings 16 years of experience to his work. Jeremy aims to make things feel more manageable when emotions are overwhelming.
He listens with warmth and directness. Sessions focus on naming emotions, spotting patterns that lead to impulsive reactions, and building clearer ways to cope.
Background and approach
Jeremy uses straightforward tools so people can try new habits between meetings and notice change over time. Jeremy draws on client-centered methods that prioritize each person’s goals and perspective. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Mindfulness skills are woven in to help with grounding and staying present. Parents often seek him out for help with parenting stress, fatherhood concerns, and family-related problems. He also works with people facing identity and intimacy issues, body image struggles, chronic pain or illness, and substance use concerns.
Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and increase practical coping skills. Jeremy keeps the tone respectful and nonjudgmental. He invites open conversation about difficult topics and helps people set concrete, realistic goals.
For many, that means clearer communication, fewer impulsive reactions, and more confidence in managing day-to-day pressures.

How Jeremy's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered work focuses on your goals and perspective, giving you space to name what matters and choose the pace. This approach helps people feel heard and keeps the work relevant to daily parenting and relationship problems.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and behavior patterns that affect parenting and relationships. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) adds emotion regulation and distress tolerance tools to reduce impulsive reactions and build steadier responses.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jeremy will talk with you about your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust as you go. That collaborative process helps find what actually helps in everyday life.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you work face-to-face when deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into short breaks. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or when typing feels more comfortable. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to use around work, school, and parenting demands.
