About Kevin
Kevin Brugman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and trauma. He also supports those dealing with relationship or intimacy concerns, issues around parenting and fatherhood, ADHD, anger, career stress, and life changes. He writes in a direct, compassionate way and aims to make hard conversations feel manageable.
Kevin blends practical tools with attention to the body and present experience.
Background and approach
He uses somatic awareness to notice how the body holds stress and uses that information to guide conversations. He also works with acceptance and commitment ideas and cognitive strategies to help people change unhelpful patterns. In sessions he keeps things straightforward.
People can expect a mix of talking and simple exercises meant to build skills. Kevin focuses on noticing thoughts, emotions, and bodily reactions, then finding small ways to respond differently in daily life. His training includes a graduate degree in marriage and family counseling completed in California in 2005.
He later moved to Texas and now holds LPC licensure in Texas, license number TX LPC 66328. He has been practicing for 16 years. Kevin brings a calm, problem-solving stance to therapy while still allowing space for emotion.
He pays attention to issues such as family of origin, communication problems, multicultural concerns, guilt and shame, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. His goal is to help people build steadier routines, clearer boundaries, and more satisfying relationships.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Kevin often uses somatic awareness to help people notice how stress and emotion show up in the body; this can be useful for trauma, anxiety, and chronic tension. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing thoughts and values and taking committed action even when feelings are hard. Client-centered therapy is another part of his work, emphasizing a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals guide the process.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Kevin will listen to your goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps identify what fits your needs and preferences over time.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. These formats let people connect from home or work, use shorter check-ins when useful, and follow up between sessions with messages or chat. The online setup supports consistent care and flexible scheduling with a licensed professional.
