About Jeremy
Many people feel stuck when strong feelings get in the way of making choices. Jeremy helps name those emotions and slow down impulsive reactions so clearer decisions become possible. He uses straightforward conversation and skill-building to reduce intensity and increase control over behavior.
His style is warm and direct. He aims to offer respect and dignity to each person, regardless of background or identity. That nonjudgmental stance is paired with exercises that teach new ways to cope and communicate.
Jeremy draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Imago Relationship Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy as tools to match each person’s needs. He tailors methods to the situation rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
With 16 years of experience as an LPC in Texas, he works with adults on issues like parenting stress, self-esteem, trauma, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and career concerns. People who want practical skills and a collaborative approach often find this helpful. To begin, readers are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Jeremy often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that fuel anger and anxiety, using practical exercises and short homework tasks. Client-Centered Therapy informs his manner in sessions, focusing on listening, empathy, and letting the person set the pace for what to work on. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and stabilizing reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to pick or combine methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That shared process helps make sessions feel more useful and relevant from the start.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since session options are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in the situations that matter most, so learning transfers to real life.
