Grief counselors and therapists in Longview, TX

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas with nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health field. I completed my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology (1995–1997) at Mississippi College, graduating with Special Distinction. My experience includes work within psychiatric hospitals, the prison system, and specialized Christian‐based care through my internship at Charter Hospital in North Jackson, Mississippi where I served within the Rapha division. After relocating to Texas in 2001, I transitioned into managed care, where I spent almost 25 years conducting clinical reviews with psychiatric and substance abuse facilities nationwide, supporting treatment teams, and maintaining direct patient contact.

I’m Alison (Ali) Pugh, a Clinical Social Worker, USAF veteran, and mom of two. I help adults who are juggling work, family, caregiving, or major life changes that feel heavier than they look on the surface. If you’re feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, you’re in the right place. My style is calm, collaborative, and steady. There’s no pressure to have the perfect words.

I’m Elizabeth, a Filipina American Psychiatric‐Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Her Mind & Wellness. My practice is built on the belief that mental‐health care should feel human, culturally aware, and deeply supportive.

I believe healing happens when you feel seen, safe, and understood. My practice blends modern psychiatry with a nurturing, human approach — creating a space where you can breathe, reset, and rebuild your wellness with guidance that feels gentle, clear, and empowering.

I've spent my career sitting with people in some of their hardest moments — crisis units, inpatient settings, disability rehabilitation, and corporate healthcare programs. I've also been a foster parent, which gave me a firsthand understanding of what it looks like when families are stretched past their limits and still trying to hold it together.I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, which means I'm especially equipped to work with clients managing the mental health side of physical health — chronic illness, disability, and the identity shifts that come with them. My work is grounded in the belief that people are more resilient than they realize, and that the right support makes that resilience accessible.
