The studio
Aquinas Studios builds programs that support real spiritual growth, using the proven principles of psychology — so you can make real change in your journey as a Christian.
We develop the world's only psycho-theological programs for spiritual formation, pairing the strength of psychology for cognitive and behavioural change with great theology. Transformation, not just information. Where others talk about what you should be doing, we give you the tools to actually do it.

The three loves
Our Passion for God
Six stages, from Despairing to Glorifying: the journey of a heart learning to seek God, find Him, behold Him, and give Him praise.
Our Lifeline to God
Four traits, from Loyalty to At One with God: the journey of a will learning whom it truly serves, and coming to rest in union with Him.
Our alignment to God
Five stages: the journey of an intellect learning to know God rightly — and discovering that knowing Him and loving Him are the same movement.
Fifteen stages. One journey.
Yours begins where you actually are.
The work
A book that defines love. Diagnostics that measure it. A journey that forms it.
The book
by Dr. Andrea LaFountain
The foundation of everything we build, carrying a church-approved Imprimatur. It defines love the way scripture does — heart, soul, and mind — and gives the journey its fifteen stages.

The founder
Dr. Andrea LaFountain
Founder & CEO · Author, Living in Love with God
Dr. LaFountain is a cognitive scientist, theologian, author, and speaker dedicated to human flourishing. Holding a PhD in neuroscience and master's degrees in both psychology and theology, her career spans British academia, global healthcare, and US entrepreneurship, where she developed breakthrough clinical models. She leads Harvard University's Psychometrics of Love group and is an adjunct professor of psychology at Divine Mercy University.
She is the author of Living in Love with God — a book carrying an ecclesiastical Imprimatur, a formal Church approval few works receive. Aquinas Studios is the meeting of those two lives' work: the rigour of psychometrics and cognitive-behaviour change, in service of the first and greatest aspiration of humanity — the mandate of loving God.
Love the Lord your God with all of your Heart and all of your Soul and all of your Mind.

How & why
The world needs a better approach to spiritual formation. The testimony of our light is dim — hundreds of thousands of programs exist, and most create little lasting change, because they lack the cognitive and behavioural foundations real transformation requires. Content is everywhere; change is rare.
Three psychometric instruments measure Heart-Love, Soul-Love, and Mind-Love — an accurate, present-moment profile, not a guess.
Your profile places you at the right starting stage of a personalized fifteen-stage journey. The path fits the person.
Scripture, the example of a saint, guided reflection, and the P.A.C.T. framework — Prayer, Accountability, Confession, Time.
Life can move anyone back a stage. We re-measure, so you always know where you stand and what work comes next.
Why shouldn't our faith journey use the best practices that science has to offer? Nothing is more important than our faith. We are serious about it. Are you?
The world is suffering from a pandemic of lovelessness. The treatment begins one heart, one soul, one mind at a time.
