Counselling & support

You are not alone in this

Confidential support from our trusted network of pastors and counsellors — prayer, scripture and practical help, with professional referral wherever it is needed.

ConfidentialReply within 48 hoursNo fee

If you are in danger right now — thinking about ending your life, being hurt, or facing violence — contact emergency services or go to the nearest hospital first. Then tell us; we will stand with you, but a phone call now matters more than a form.

What we help with

Bring the real issue, not the polite version

Marriage & relationships

Conflict, communication, betrayal, unfaithfulness, preparation before marriage.

Grief & loss

Bereavement, miscarriage, lost pregnancies, and the grief no one mentions at work.

Addiction & bondage

Alcohol, drugs, gambling, pornography, sexual compulsion — with accountability and follow-up.

Anxiety & depression

Pastoral support alongside medical care. We do not treat clinical conditions with prayer alone.

Single parenting

Provision, loneliness, co-parenting conflict, and raising children without support.

Trauma & abuse

Domestic violence, childhood abuse, sexual assault — with safeguarding and police referral where required.

Minister burnout

Exhaustion, discouragement, family strain and the loneliness of leading.

Vocation & decision

Career change, emigration, business decisions, calling and finances.

How it works

Four steps, and you can stop at any point

01 Request confidentially Fill the form below or message us on WhatsApp. You choose what to disclose — never share case details in a public comment.

02 Safe triage within 48 hours A pastor or counsellor reviews your request. Urgent risk is responded to the same day.

03 First session 60 minutes, in person or online, with a same-gender counsellor available on request.

04 A plan and follow-up Prayer, scripture, practical next steps, and sessions every 2–4 weeks until you are stable — then a check-in at 3 and 6 months.

What confidentiality means here

Seen only by the pastor or counsellor assigned to your case.
Never shared with your church, your family or anyone who asks — unless the law requires it to protect someone from serious harm.
You can ask to be counselled by a same-gender counsellor, or by someone outside your local church.
You can ask us to delete your record; we keep only what safeguarding and the law require.

Clinical care is not a failure of faith. Where medication, trauma therapy or psychiatric care is appropriate, our counsellors will say so and help you find it. We pray for healing and we refer to doctors — the two are not in conflict.

Request support

Say as little or as much as you can

You do not have to explain everything in the form — only enough for the right person to be assigned. If typing it is too much, send a blank message and we will call the number you leave.

If your situation involves a child or anyone being hurt, tell us plainly: we are legally and pastorally obliged to act on that, and knowing early is what keeps people safe.

A child or vulnerable person may be at risk in what I am describing. I consent to the care team storing and handling this message privately, and understand that a disclosure of risk of serious harm will be escalated to protect life.
