About Jacques
Jacques Noguess is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on practical, person-centered care. He helps people work through stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and men's wellbeing concerns. He also supports people facing relationship strain, addiction struggles, sleep problems, and major life transitions.
Jacques brings 14 years of experience as an LPC and a broader 29-year background in social services to his work. He draws from several therapeutic approaches to tailor sessions to each person. Sessions are grounded in everyday language and clear goals rather than jargon.
In the room he listens first and then helps people identify small, actionable steps. He uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy as appropriate. The focus is often on building coping skills, managing difficult emotions, and clarifying values and purpose.
Jacques has worked with a wide range of concerns across the lifespan and in varied settings. He emphasizes collaboration, practical strategies, and helping people make steady progress toward goals. He also draws on life experience as a parent and traveler to relate to different perspectives.
People who seek him out can expect straightforward, goal-oriented conversation that balances skill-building with personal exploration. He aims to help people move past what holds them back and toward a life that feels more purposeful and manageable.
Approaches that guide online work and goals
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns, which can help with depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and reflects, supporting people as they find their own answers.Jacques treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques, then tailor sessions accordingly. The plan can evolve over time based on what proves most helpful.
Confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing commute time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It also supports shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to use tools like worksheets, homework, and mindfulness exercises between meetings. These practical benefits often help people maintain steady progress while balancing daily responsibilities.
