Jack graduated with a doctorate in counselor education and supervision from Mercer University in 2020. He is a licensed professional counselor, certified professional counselor supervisor, and national certified counselor. Jack is also an assistant professor for Richmont Graduate University, where he teaches counselor education. For his dissertation, he conducted original research that established a scientific definition of self-love. His clinical experience has informed his belief that counseling is often about coming to terms with who individuals are without judgment, armed with compassion and understanding as a pathway to improved health.

Therapy can be effective in a safe, unconditional, and accepting environment. Counseling is treated as a sacred space in which Jack seeks to stand beside his clients in what they are bravely confronting as a pathway to freedom, healing, and reconciliation. Counseling services are provided both in person and online. Jack has offices in the North Buckhead/Atlanta area and Norcross.
