About Don
Don Baccus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 11 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Don also focuses on issues such as divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, panic attacks, and social anxiety.
Don uses a conversational style in sessions. He listens to how a problem shows up in daily life and asks practical questions to clarify what matters most. Sessions often include looking at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact so clients can try small changes between appointments.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is one of his stated approaches. Don also uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), along with Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy. He blends these methods to match what a person brings to the room rather than relying on a single technique.
People who choose him can expect straightforward discussion about goals and steps to take. Don emphasizes realistic strategies for coping, building confidence, and handling difficult emotions. He frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s priorities shape the work.
Sessions are conducted in English and reflect his practice in Texas. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session costs vary by location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How his approaches apply to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and how they shape interactions and personal patterns. It can help when feelings are hard to name or when emotions drive repeated responses to stress or relationship change.Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s perspective and builds sessions around what the client says matters most. It supports people who need space to reflect and decide on goals at their own pace.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and coping. CBT offers concrete exercises and experiments to reduce panic, challenge anxious thinking, and build new habits.
Finding the best fit is part of the process. Don will work with each person to choose which approaches to use based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That assessment is collaborative and may change over time as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since they are not specified here. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into everyday life, such as shorter check-ins during a break or avoiding travel time. Phone sessions can require less bandwidth, while video sessions allow visual cues that help with emotional work. Ask about the specific session formats offered when you set up the first appointment.
