He is a licensed psychologist in Minnesota who received his Ph.D. in counseling psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is a member of the American Psychological Association.

He has practiced family therapy as a Certified Marriage and Family Therapist and substance abuse counseling as a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor. He can speak from experience raising three millennial and GenX young adults who have achieved independence and self-sufficiency.

Dr. Jack coaches parents on facilitating the launch process of their young adults. Parents struggle with how much to help with their young adult's emotional, physical, and financial needs and when to say 'no" to such support. Current millennials and GenZs are slower to move forward with their independence than past generations. Parents can't use their own experience as a young adult as the template for what their adult children should do. There are various practices that parents need to strengthen to enable young adults to move out and on with their lives. These practices constitute the six short books that are available on Amazon or through the website parentslettinggo.com.
