Jacques Noguess, LPC

Jacques Noguess is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people move past what holds them back. He brings 14 years as an LPC and many more years in social services to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns including jealousy and intimacy-related issues.

He uses a blend of practical approaches to help people make changes that matter. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to thoughts, behaviors, values, and what someone wants their life to look like. Jacques emphasizes simple skills people can use between meetings to notice patterns and try new ways of responding.

His background includes broad work across clinical and community settings. That experience informs a flexible style that adapts to each person’s needs. Jacques has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, caregiver strain, first responder stress, bipolar concerns, grief and end-of-life matters, and workplace or life transitions.

People can expect a collaborative process. Jacques listens first, helps set clear goals, and offers strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based approaches as well as acceptance and values work. He also draws on dialectical ideas when emotions run high.

He practices from Texas and conducts sessions in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the continue button on this profile.

Blending therapy approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to shift focus from getting stuck in thoughts to building a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often helpful for anxiety, mood, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and the therapeutic relationship, giving people space to find their own solutions with supportive reflection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacques will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods together to see what fits. He treats the choice of techniques as collaborative and will adjust based on what helps someone make steady progress.

Discuss the practical arrangements before beginning therapy online. Confirm the current session options, fees, and appointment schedule, and raise any access needs or communication preferences. The aim is to understand the next steps and decide whether the proposed arrangements work for you.
