Jack Anderson
My passion is helping clients find joy in relationships and experience life to the fullest! I offer individual, couples, and family therapy. I specialize in working with clients on communication, anxiety, and life transitions. My goal is to help others learn how to develop skills for managing daily stress and have healthier conflict.
When I'm not working I enjoy playing guitar, taking walks, and spending time with my wife and our cat Lily.

First session
I use the first session to get to know you and what brings you to therapy. This helps me understand which approaches may be most helpful moving forward.
Strengths
I make an intentional effort to ensure all of my clients feel welcome and cared for. I want my office to be a safe space to share your true thoughts and feelings. I believe my laid back yet adaptive approach helps me accomplish this.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to serve clients with relationship problems, anxiety, parenting concerns, or couples looking for pre-marital counseling.
Treatment methods
Gottman method
I am trained in Gottman Method Levels 1 & 2. I use this treatment modality to focus on helping couples/families/individual communicate better and build stronger relationships.
Christian Counseling
During my time at Bethel Seminary, I learned how to integrate faith into my work as a MFT. I offer faith integration into therapy for interested clients.
Couples Counseling
I have spent over 3 years providing couples counseling. I am a Prepare & Enrich Facilitator, which offers structure to primarily support pre-marital couples. I also utilize various other treatment modalities including Gottman Method, Attachment Theory, and family therapy to assist my couples in their relationships. Topics covered includes parenting issues, sex, finances, in-laws, and many more.
Family Therapy
I have helped many couples and individuals navigate the complexities of raising a family. I use this approach to cover family structure, boundaries, behavioral concerns, division of labor, beliefs/values issues, among many more topics.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have used this approach with my clients to help them build better thought and behavior patterns. This practice includes a focus on skill building, pattern recognition, and thought restructuring.
