About Jacques
Jacques Noguess is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people move past what holds them back. He draws on 14 years as an LPC and many more years in social services to guide people through stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and phobias among other concerns. He keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused.
Jacques listens first, then helps clients notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
He uses practical exercises, values-based work, and real-life skill building to make change feel possible. His background spans work with a wide range of issues, including trauma and abuse, addiction, bipolar concerns, sleep struggles, and relationship or intimacy-related problems. He also helps people with family of origin questions, caregiver stress, codependency, and life transitions like midlife shifts or career changes.
Jacques blends several therapy styles rather than relying on a single technique. He draws on acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive approaches, dialectical skills, and a client-centered stance to match what each person needs. Sessions are collaborative and shaped around practical steps the person can use between meetings.
Outside the office he is a family person who enjoys music and travel, and he describes himself as a lifelong learner. That mix of long-term social services experience and counseling practice informs a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to helping people who are ready to make changes.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values while accepting uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors through practical exercises and homework. It often helps with depression, phobias, sleep problems, and low self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress during crises.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacques will discuss these options with each person and shape a plan that fits their goals, needs, and daily life. Sessions are collaborative so techniques are tried and adjusted together until they feel useful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and messaging or chat can suit those who prefer written check-ins between meetings. This range makes it easier to fit appointments around work, family, and busy schedules while using the therapeutic approaches described above.
