About Kevin
Kevin Brugman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and relationship concerns. He writes in a straightforward way and aims to make reaching out feel less daunting. Kevin focuses on practical steps that bring relief and clearer thinking so people can move forward.
Kevin brings 16 years of counseling experience to his work. He completed a graduate degree in marriage and family counseling in California in 2005 and has practiced since then, relocating to Texas in 2009. His experience covers a wide range of concerns including ADHD, parenting strain, anger, career stress, and issues around intimacy and family of origin.
In session he combines compassion with solution-focused tools. He uses mindfulness exercises and cognitive techniques to help people notice thoughts and change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are part of his approach, helping clients act on their values even when emotions are difficult.
Kevin tends to work in a calm, direct style. He helps people identify strengths, challenge irrational beliefs, and set realistic goals. Sessions often include simple skill-building, breathing or grounding practices, and short practical homework to try between meetings.
People who come for help with panic, anxiety, or grief will find a steady, encouraging counselor who emphasizes small changes that add up. He aims to create a space where people can regain some control, reduce overwhelming feelings, and take steps toward what matters to them.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then act on what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, panic, and situations where emotions get in the way of everyday goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and stress by teaching practical tools to change reactions in the moment.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship. That approach helps people feel heard and safe enough to try new ways of coping and to explore difficult emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked in the past. This collaborative conversation guides which methods are used and how sessions are shaped over time.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Many people find it simpler to practice skills in the same environment where they face challenges, and therapists can adapt exercises for a remote format to keep progress moving forward.
