Church Mental Health Training
Church Mental Health Training
Church leaders carry the sacred responsibility of shepherding souls, but ministry today also demands wisdom in navigating mental health challenges. Anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, and crisis moments are realities in every congregation. You don’t have to face them alone.
Â
Our training equips pastors, elders, nonprofit leaders, and faith-based teams with practical tools that combine biblical wisdom, counseling best practices, and pastoral care principles, so your ministry can respond with confidence, compassion, and clarity.

Who We Serve
Pastors and Clergy
Pastors are often the first people church members turn to in times of crisis, grief, or mental health struggles. Yet clergy are rarely given formal training in counseling or crisis care. Our programs equip pastors with practical frameworks, such as pastoral triage, suicide prevention, and burnout awareness, so you can shepherd with wisdom while staying healthy yourself. With these tools, you’ll feel confident knowing when to provide care, when to set boundaries, and when to refer to professionals.
Nonprofit Leaders
Community nonprofits carry incredible responsibility in meeting both physical and emotional needs. For directors and training coordinators, our workshops and consulting services provide faith-integrated mental health training that equips staff and volunteers to serve with sensitivity and competence. Whether your nonprofit supports families, youth, or vulnerable populations, we help your team respond with clarity, compassion, and practical resources that align with your mission.
Lay Leaders & Elders
Deacons, elders, and lay leaders are the backbone of pastoral care in many congregations. Yet many feel unprepared when faced with issues like depression, domestic violence, or caregiver burnout. Our training equips lay leaders with a simple but powerful toolkit, listening skills, crisis response frameworks, and referral pathways, so they can offer safe, biblically grounded support without overstepping their role.
Faith Communities
Churches as a whole are called to be places of refuge and healing. When a congregation embraces mental health ministry, stigma is reduced and lives are changed. Our resources give faith communities the knowledge and confidence to support one another, whether through caregiver support groups, dementia-friendly worship services, or mental health awareness campaigns. Together, we can build a culture where faith and mental health care work hand in hand to strengthen the Body of Christ.

Trainee Reviews
This event fit our ministry because, the training gave us not only mental health awareness. Awareness from a Biblical perspective. The training gave a theological and therapeutic approach. I believe all who are in leadership positions would benefit from this training. Especially on how to approach mental health issues in the Church.
We encounter different types of people and with this information we can engage on several levels, knowing the warning signs and with better understanding we can achieve greater lasting results.
Our mission is to restore the lives of individuals and families who are homeless and to prevent homelessness. Many who are homeless are experiencing mental health issues. We are now better equipped to assist those who are experiencing these challenges.
We constantly come in contact with people and this helps us to better understand how we should react to people who are experiencing a mental health crisis.
The workshop was very informative and I truly enjoyed the presentation.
