Psychotherapy and psychiatric services are not yet available in every State.

We anticipate all mental health services will be available in all service areas summer of 2025.​

Christian Counseling

Many Bible verses talk about counseling, and there are Bible stories that highlight the benefit and blessing of wise counsel. The focus of biblically-based Christian counseling is to 1) counsel the Word, 2) direct and redirect people to God, and 3) encourage spiritual growth.

​

1. Counsel the Word. At Third John Healthcare, we do not counsel denominational doctrines or theological ideologies. We counsel the Bible--the inerrant, infallible, eternal Word of God. When you want to know what the Bible has to say about your situation and how to apply biblical standards or commands to your life, we are here to help will confidentiality, compassion, and Christian love.

​

2. God is God alone. Sometimes, people develop a dependency on others so much that they seek others instead of seeking God. While we were created to be in relationship and community with other people, counselors at Third John Healthcare are careful not be become idols for the people we serve and journey alongside. We give Bible verse. We pray with you. We remind you to seek first God and His kingdom.

​

3. Spiritual Growth. We are directed in scripture to grow, to mature in Christ. Christian counseling with Third John Healthcare promotes this very process and goal, also known as spiritual formation. While we do not engage in full discipleship (we believe that is a ministry freely given), we do support spiritual growth and will help you develop goals and a plan to move toward maturity in Christ.

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy, or therapy as it is commonly called, is a specialized form of counseling provided by trained and licensed mental health professionals. These professionals, usually called "therapists," use therapeutic techniques to help individuals, couples, and families overcome personal and psychosocial barriers to resolve challenges with thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Therapy can help you deal with:

• Depression, Grief, and Loss

• Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma

• Obsessions, Compulsions, and Sleep Disturbances

• Anger, Explosive Behavior, and Temper Outbursts

• Substance Use, Gambling, and Addictions

• And more!

​​​

Remember, all Third John Healthcare staff are Christians, so all of our services maintain a faith-forward approach and consideration.

We are God-first, person-oriented, patient-centered, and trauma-informed in all our care.

​

Psychiatry

Psychiatry is a branch of medicine that evaluates and treats cognitive (thinking), emotional (feeling), and behavioral (acting) diseases. Since we offer Christian counseling and psychotherapy, psychiatry services at Third John Healthcare are strictly medication therapies. Our psychiatric providers work with you and the care team to hone in on what medication will best help you achieve your mental health and overall wellness goals. Our focus is on minimization of medication (that means using as few meds as possible) and prefer to use medications when 1) they are necessary, 2) other options have failed, and/or 3) the benefits outweigh the risks.​
