Guatemala Mental Health & Counseling Ministry: Hope, Healing & Emotional Support

Support. Encourage. Bring Hope. 

Use your skills, compassion, and willingness to serve to support healing, strengthen local ministry, and share the hope of Jesus. 

This trip is ideal for mental health professionals, churches, students, professionals, and individuals who want to support a ministry bringing hope and healing to their community. Because counseling is deeply personal and confidential, short-term teams do not typically participate directly in therapy sessions or patient care. Instead, teams can support the ministry through encouragement, prayer, resources, facilities, professional training, and other practical ways.

What You’ll Be Doing 

• Partner with Guatemalan ministry leaders and professionals who are already deeply invested in the emotional and spiritual well-being of their communities.

• Support the Psychology Clinic through prayer, encouragement, supplies, therapeutic materials, facility improvements, and other practical needs.

• Encourage and equip local professionals through specialized training, professional mentorship, collaboration, and development opportunities when appropriate.

• Strengthen the ministry behind the scenes by helping create peaceful, welcoming spaces where people can receive care with dignity, privacy, and respect.

• Serve alongside the broader CFCI ministry base through community outreach, prayer, and relationship-building opportunities.

Your Support Can Help Create Space for Healing. 

You may pray with staff, help furnish a counseling space, provide needed supplies, offer professional training, support outreach efforts, or simply encourage the people faithfully serving this ministry. Every act of support helps strengthen a place where healing can begin.
