About Jacques

Jacques Noguess is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years as an LPC and a long background in social services. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, issues with intimacy, sleep problems, and challenges around parenting, career and life changes. He also lists life purpose among his areas of focus.

He describes a broad career helping people at different life stages. He has experience supporting people with mood and trauma-related concerns and has worked in settings that included care for serious and complex conditions. He emphasizes listening first, then using practical tools to help people move forward.

His practice draws on several evidence-based approaches. You can expect techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy. Mindfulness and motivational styles are woven into sessions when appropriate.

Sessions tend to focus on what a person wants to change and small steps that fit daily life. Conversations cover thoughts, behaviors, values, and ways to manage emotions. He supports people working through midlife concerns, caregiver stress, issues around abandonment or commitment, body image, fatherhood, first responder stress, and grief related to end-of-life care.

Jacques draws on decades of social service experience and his LPC credential to shape practical, talk-based work. He speaks English and accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions aligned with those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck when someone wants a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, behaviors, and moods and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues and many everyday problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them based on how the sessions feel and what progress is made.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or enabling work during a lunch break. They are also useful when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a lower-bandwidth option. Ask about formats and scheduling when arranging the first appointment so sessions match practical needs and daily routines.
