His approach to therapy has been called pragmatic, inspired in part by his interest in pragmatist philosophy, an interest that dates back at least to his undergraduate years, when he wrote his undergraduate honors thesis on pragmatist philosophers such as William James, John Dewey, and Charles Sanders Pierce.

Norcross was born in 1957 at Cooper University Hospital in Camden, New Jersey, the son of George E. Norcross, Jr. and Carol Norcross. He and his three brothers (George Norcross III, congressman Donald Norcross, and Philip A. Norcross) were raised in Pennsauken and Merchantville, New Jersey. He graduated from Rutgers University with a B.A. in psychology, the University of Rhode Island with a M.A. and Ph.D. in clinical psychology, and then completed his internship at Brown University School of Medicine. Norcross has served as president of the American Psychological Association Division of Psychotherapy, the Society of Clinical Psychology, and the Society for the Exploration of Psychotherapy Integration (SEPI). He received the Distinguished Contributions to Education & Training Award from the American Psychological Association〔 and the Pennsylvania Professor of the Year from the Carnegie Foundation.
