About Jacques
Jacques Noguess is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people move past what holds them back. He describes his work as guiding clients toward more meaningful, satisfying lives. He draws on many therapeutic tools and centers sessions on the person in front of him.
He has 14 years of experience as an LPC and nearly three decades in social services overall. That background means he has supported people through stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, and relationship and intimacy-related struggles. He also works with issues such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, codependency, and life transitions.
Jacques takes an integrative approach in session. He uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to shape practical steps people can try between meetings. He emphasizes listening first, then tailoring tools to each person’s goals.
Sessions focus on setting clear, manageable goals and practicing skills that help day-to-day. He often blends mindfulness and values-based exercises with practical problem solving. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Outside of work he is a married father of two, enjoys music, and values continued learning and travel. He is based in Texas and provides services in English. If you want to explore next steps, the profile offers a simple starting route to connect.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed actions that match those values. It can help people dealing with anxiety, depression, codependency, and life changes by highlighting what matters and building small steps toward it.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for stress, anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties and gives concrete skills to use between sessions.
Jacques treats finding the right method as a collaborative process. He listens to a person’s goals and preferences, then suggests approaches to try together. The plan can shift over time as needs and progress become clearer.
If you are considering online therapy with this therapist, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and offer options when low-bandwidth connections or less camera time are preferred. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT tools for remote sessions so the work remains focused on real-life practice and steady progress.
