About
Keith Hugh is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with 13 years of clinical experience. His practice addresses a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar and depressive mood disorders, addictions, and issues related to identity and relationships. He also works with family and parenting challenges, anger, self esteem, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and related focus areas such as attachment difficulties, dissociation, impulsivity, and first responder issues.
Keith integrates several clinical approaches to match the needs of each person. He draws on client-centered therapy to prioritize the individual’s perspective, cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy for skills-based work, and existential and narrative approaches for exploring meaning and life story. Motivational interviewing is used when ambivalence about change appears. He aims to offer a nonjudgmental environment that supports exploration of communication patterns, coping strategies, and steps toward new directions in life.

Remote therapy and communication options
Keith provides remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. In online work he combines client-centered therapy with structured methods so that sessions can be collaborative and goal-oriented while honoring the person’s perspective. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to identify and test thinking and behavior patterns, and dialectical behavior therapy offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal interactions.
When readiness or motivation is part of the conversation, motivational interviewing supports movement through ambivalence. Narrative therapy offers a way to reframe personal stories and consider alternative meanings. These approaches translate to remote formats for people who want either active skills practice or reflective exploration, and sessions can be arranged through the listed communication options.
