OUR IDENTITY

Our company has many competitive, unique advantages over similar providers in our industry. In order to understand why we do what we do, it is essential to understand who we are.

We Heal Pain. There is a crisis of chronic suffering in the United States. The measurable clinical, economic, and societal burden of treatment resistant depression ($118 billion), combined with other potentially treatable disorders, exceeds $1 trillion annually in the United States. We are experiencing rising healthcare costs, longer life spans, and an increase in chronic pathology. Simply put, there is a major treatment gap that we plan to fill through comprehensive, integrated psychiatric care.

We Restore Hope. Many of our patients have treatment-resistant conditions. The toll of refractory health issues is substantial, and many people who are depressed or in pain believe that they are stuck, that no options remain. We offer solutions for refractory mood disorders and pain syndromes, promoting the hope that healing is possible even in the worst cases. We are committed to seeking out new solutions for our treatment-resistant patient population.

We Regain Purpose. We are passionate about seeing the lives of our patients transformed. The goal of our therapy is to help people get back to the purpose that drives them. Chronic suffering impedes our ability to play our roles well, so we help our patients overcome their challenges and recover their lives, whether that’s as a business owner, a mom, a student, or a friend.

We are Holistic and Integrated. We treat the whole person, body and mind. Suffering cannot be contained to just one aspect of a person’s life. We believe that poor mental health can affect one’s physical well-being, and vice versa. We believe that a person’s mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health are intertwined, and for this reason we offer therapies that will treat both body and mind. As we continue to grow, we will incorporate additional service lines that offer holistic healing to our patients, such as nutritional counseling.

We are Fighting Suicide. According to the World Health Organization, there are 1 million completed suicides each year, which is an average of one suicide every 40 seconds. Suicide rates are on the rise in the United States. Thankfully, we have a solution to this alarming health concern. Ketamine infusion therapy has the power to immediately erase suicidal thoughts and give patients the ability to work through their depressive symptoms. AHC is committed to offering hope to suicidal patients and working with like-minded health care professionals to promote suicide awareness and prevention.

We Help People Reduce Medication Intake. We offer medication management to our patients, recognizing that each patient’s needs are individual and specific. We also offer two effective therapies, ketamine infusions and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), to help patients reduce their intake of traditional psychiatric management medications. We know that chronic medication dependence can cause a host of unwelcome side-effects, and we will work carefully with each patient we treat to help reduce their medication dependency. Ketamine Infusions are a solution for the opioid epidemic that is creating addiction in many parts of the United States.

We are Interdisciplinary. Our staffing models include both mental health professionals and anesthesia providers. We hire a variety of clinicians so we can effectively meet the needs of our patients and give them the most comprehensive treatments possible. Each staff member is assigned to his or her area of expertise, and we believe that through collaboration we can optimize patient care and find better solutions for everyone that we treat.
