About Jeremy

Jeremy Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who invites people to seek help when life feels overwhelming. He begins by listening closely so people feel heard. He frames therapy as a practical place to work through stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, depression, and big life changes.

Jeremy has three years of clinical experience in outpatient, inpatient, and faith-based settings. He works with males ages 13 and older and females ages 21 and older. His background also includes a Pastoral Sex Addiction Professional certification through IITAP, which informs how he supports people facing sexual struggles and addiction.

In sessions he uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also uses existential ideas to address meaning and purpose when life feels empty or confusing.

Jeremy incorporates Reality Therapy (WDEP) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy when clients want concrete steps and short-term goals. These methods focus on immediate choices, practical problem solving, and small changes that build forward momentum.

Many people come for help with attachment and codependency concerns, family of origin issues, communication problems, commitment worries, and blended family stress. Jeremy aims to help people strengthen self-worth, repair relationships, and find clearer paths through transitions.

How his approaches translate to online work

Jeremy draws from a few evidence-based approaches and explains them in plain terms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thinking that worsen anxiety or depression, then tests small behavior changes to shift how they feel. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy focuses on specific, practical steps clients can try right away to create measurable progress and ease daily stress.

Finding the best approach is treated as a team effort. Jeremy discusses goals and preferences with each person, then tailors which techniques to emphasize. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on short-term problem solving, deeper meaning work, or a blend of both.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. People often choose online therapy to fit sessions into busy days, make it easier to keep regular appointments, or use shorter check-ins during a work break. Online work can also make it simpler to continue care when life requires travel or schedule changes. Licensed professionals adapt the same therapeutic steps to an online setting so clients can work on stress, codependency, attachment, addiction-related concerns, and relationship skills without changing their treatment goals.
