In his free time, Jack enjoys spending time with family and friends, going on runs, shopping for vinyl records, watching his favorite Chicago sports teams, golfing, and drumming.

Jack’s approach to therapy

Jack holds a strong belief that every client, regardless of age and background, can feel heard when accessing therapeutic support. Jack’s clinical focus centers around CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), person-centered therapy, play therapy, and EFT (emotionally focused therapy) approaches. Jack believes that the combination of these modalities provides the client with not only a comfortable space to process, and confront, challenging emotions/feelings, but also the freedom to change behaviors. Jack believes that the collaboration between client and therapist is essential towards providing effective care and assisting the client with their therapy goals.
