iHope is uniquely prepared to support our local pastors and ministry leaders. We are distinctly Christian, confidential, and offer some special services for those in church or ministry contexts.
Counseling Discounts For Pastors
At iHope, you’ll find a confidential, safe, Christ-centered space to receive care and counsel. An additional 10% discount is available to full-time pastors. Please speak with the front desk Office Manager about this discount.
Why do we offer a ministry discount? The vision of iHope is specifically focused on extending the care of the local church. It can be particularly difficult for those living and working full-time in ministry to find care for themselves. We not only want to care for those in the church, but also for those leading the church.
Counseling Tips For Pastors & Ministry Leaders Podcast
Our goal with this weekly podcast is to EQUIP and ENCOURAGE ministry leaders in how they approach “counseling” related areas in their ministry. With short episodes through audio, video, or on the blog you’ll find something that is helpful for you.
Each episode will EQUIP you with practical tools, resources, ideas, and skills and also ENCOURAGE you in the hard but holy work that God has called you to do.
Whether you are a pastor, leading a Bible study, or caring for your neighbor – every Christian is in ministry. Emotions and mental health can be overwhelming. Relationship problems can be challenging. That’s why we want to offer a clinical, Christ-centered perspective on how you can approach, assess, and address these important issues with people in your ministry.

Teaching & Training Events
Some pastors and ministry leaders have found that topics highlighted on our podcast are ones that they would like to dig into more deeply with their team. This can be a great opportunity for On-site Teaching & Training Events. Whether this is a skill-building event or a special time of pastoral care, you may find this personal event helpful for your staff or team.
Prayer & Pastoral Support
The busier we are or the more stressed we feel, the more important it is to receive prayer. The iHope team is specifically equipped and prepared to provide pastoral support. We know that it can be difficult to find adequate care, counsel, accountability, and rest while your work is in ministry.
If prayer or pastoral support would be helpful, please reach out. We are happy to meet with you for personal or small-group times of pastoral care and prayer. Of course, our Care & Counseling Services may also be helpful. If you have specific ministry goals, consider our Life Coaching services. Or if you are struggling through a season of burnout, grief, relationship stress, or other emotional concern, consider our Professional Counseling services. (And remember, there is a 10% discount!)
Church Partnerships
At iHope, we recognize that we are all strengthened in partnership. What might this look like for your church?
- Financial gifts equip us to keep counseling fees at 50% below the local average cost. Your in-line budget donations make a big difference! Monthly, quarterly, and annual gifts are very appreciated.
- Your church can cover the costs of counseling (or part of the cost) for someone in your ministry. Just call the front desk to get more information: (843) 702-0323.
- Support for our scholarship fund is a special donation opportunity that allows us to lower the cost even further for someone in need.
