Dr. Micah McCreary, PhD, LCP
President and RCA General Synod Professor
New Brunswick Theological Seminary
Rev. Dr. Micah L. McCreary brings together a distinctive combination of experience as a theologian, psychologist, pastor, educator, and institutional leader. He has served as president of New Brunswick Theological Seminary since 2017 and was installed as a General Synod Professor of Theology in the Reformed Church in America in 2021. Before joining the seminary, he spent more than two decades as a psychology professor at Virginia Commonwealth University and led a psychological and human resources consulting firm.
His scholarship and leadership have engaged questions at the intersection of psychology, faith, race, trauma, and human flourishing, including work addressing race and trauma, psychosocial-spiritual well-being, church hurt, and suicide. That breadth of experience offers an important lens for considering how theological institutions and faith communities can become places of deeper care, formation, and transformation.
