Counseling Practice – Jerry Lynn Petty Jr., MS, LPC, NCC
Jerry Lynn Petty Jr. is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) practicing out of North Texas Psychiatry and Psychotherapy in Denton, Texas. The office is located at 914 North Locust, Denton, TX 76201, and provides individual, couples, and group counseling to clients across the Denton area.
Petty holds a Master’s degree in counseling and applies an existential philosophical framework to clinical work. His stated approach centers on helping clients achieve authenticity, take meaningful responsibility for personal choices, and navigate the inherent paradoxes of life. The practice describes this orientation as one in which clients come to recognize that, while external events cannot always be controlled, the individual’s response to those events can be deliberately shaped. This framework applies across a range of presenting concerns and life stages.
Clinical specialties listed on the site include grief counseling, anxiety, depression, stage-of-life transitions, interpersonal communication, adolescent counseling, and men’s issues. Group counseling is also offered as a distinct service format alongside individual and couples work. Petty engages with clients across different phases of life, including adolescents navigating personal development and adults managing significant life changes.
Service formats include individual counseling, couples therapy, and group therapy. The practice offers both in-person appointments at the Denton office and online counseling, extending access to clients who prefer remote sessions or who are not local to the area. The website includes options to request appointments, access intake forms, and review clinical resources. A Facebook page supplements the primary website with additional practice information.
Rate and insurance details are maintained on a dedicated page of the website rather than the homepage. Clients are directed there for full coverage information. The practice can be reached by phone at 940-453-9074, and consultation requests may be submitted through the website’s contact form.
Petty describes counseling as suitable for individuals facing challenging circumstances as well as those ready to pursue meaningful change in the direction of their lives.
