We believe that people were created as an inseparable composition of both body and soul, of flesh and spirit, of matter and immaterial. Human struggles and suffering always involve these parts and we are in a unique position at JA&A to address both. Our team of Christian counselors, psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists are well equipped to evaluate and be attentive to this complex interplay.
We seek to provide Christian counseling, psychology, and psychiatry services that are both clinically competent and faith based. We know it is not easy to find a Christian therapist who is both clinically experienced and biblically grounded. Here we strive to submit all classical understandings of human thinking, behavior, and motivation to the ultimate authoritative truth found in Scripture, highlighting the supreme cosmic dynamic of the gospel message.
While employing the wisdom from years of experience, utilizing sophisticated, effective, evidence-based approaches to treatment, we endeavor to critically square these same approaches with a Reformed theological lens.

Most psychiatrists are not religious, let alone Christian.
There are also some psychiatrists who are Christian but whose practice of psychiatry is not significantly informed by their faith.
At JA&A, we believe that all understandings of human behavior, thinking, motivation, and suffering must be not only informed but transformed by our faith.
While we have the same training and expertise as any other physician in the field, we also have a burden to submit this understanding to a robust biblical anthropology.

We are proud to offer cutting-edge treatment approaches for psychiatric disorders that have begun to revolutionize the field.
TMS and ketamine treatments for depression and anxiety disorders have shown significant efficacy with the benefit of reducing the burden of side effects that are traditionally seen with many standard medication treatments.
Genetic testing has begun to show promise for individualizing care for some clinical situations and will likely rapidly improve our ability to individualize care.

When one seeks a counselor they are looking for a reliable guide who is both capable and trustworthy.
Our Christian therapists and counselors are experienced with a variety of therapeutic modalities-such as CBT, IPT, DBT, and systems theory, to name a few.
But trust is not gained simply from professional competence-it is gained from a track record of effectively helping people navigate life in a Christ-honoring way that leads to tangible fruit.
Our counselors have earned this respect in the Christian community and are sought out as guides to help during life's storms.

Most can identify with knowing the right things but still failing to follow through.
Diet, exercise, bible reading, prayer, contemplative meditation - who hasn't made resolutions and attempts at change only to later add to the list of failures and feelings of guilt?
But how we steward our bodies and shape our practices has such a profound impact on the direction of our growth.
You can think of health coaching as a kind of knowledgable discipleship for lifestyle stewardship.
Our health coaching can help you to create an individualized plan for health, nutrition, and spiritual practices that supplement, support and strengthen your therapy and steps towards growth and healing.
