Your Journey Starts Here...

Comprehensive Health Services: Mind, Body, and Spirit

At MHT Family Life Center, we strive to promote your overall well-being. We are committed to joining you on your journey to achieve wholeness, healing, and transformation towards a more liberated version of yourself. Our services cater to a broad range of concerns, including those related to mental health and spirituality. Whether you require short or long-term counseling, we offer guidance and support to help you gain insight into emotional distress and explore ways to overcome it.

Our counselors are clinically trained and integrate components of spirituality and psychology in the therapeutic encounter as desired by the counselee in relationship counseling, couples counseling, individual counseling, and group counseling.

A pastoral counselor can provide expertise as persons experience crisis and struggle with their faith and conflictual past and present life experiences.

We help clients to examine and unpack their feelings, thoughts, and actions in a safe and sacred space.  We journey with individuals, couples, and families to explore a range of conflicts that hinder them from living their best lives and becoming their best selves. 

Domestic Violence Commitment 

We partner with DV organizations to provide support services and free resources to promote healing, empowerment, and transformation in the lives of those who experience financial, emotional, physical, and sexual violence.  If you would like to support us in our efforts, please contact us at pastoralcounseling@mhtfamilylifecenter.org.

ClergyCare 

provides counseling, support, and training for pastors, church leadership, and others interested in establishing and developing a Pastoral Care ministry within their church or organization.

Counseling and Support for Clergy and Church Leaders

We believe it is essential for clergy to receive care as they pour into the lives of others.  In recent years there has been an increase in clergy suicide due to lack of support, no safe spaces, burnout fatigue, and other life stressors.  It is our goal to provide a safe and sacred space for clergy and church leaders to share their feelings and thoughts, in addition to offering an atmosphere that allows them to lament and be replenished to carry out their work in ministry.

Certificate Training Program

Our training program consists of 12 sessions designed to prepare and educate pastors, church leadership, and lay persons with essential skills to develop a specialized Pastoral Care department within the church.

The program provides an in-depth understanding of the wide-scope of spiritually-based caregiving skills needed to meet the needs of those who suffer crises and transition within the church.

Training sessions are 90 minutes in length and include the following:

•Defining “Pastoral Care”
