Hear From Others
"I want to thank all at Saint Luke Institute for the impact of your program in my life. I have been sober for over 40 years as a result of the care I received at SLI with a priest-therapist. He continued supporting me for many years, including in the Continuing Care program. I am indebted to him and to all of you for decades of healthy life, ministry, and dignity. May the Lord continue his healing and renewal through your ministry."

Consultative Care
Candidate Assessment
We evaluate permanent diaconate, priesthood, and religious life candidates for vocational suitability during an in-depth, multi-day spiritual and psychological assessment.
Clergy & Religious Health Monitor
The SLI Clergy & Religious Health Monitor provides an overview of the mental and spiritual health of the clergy and men and women religious within a diocese or religious institute. It is an opportunity for Church leaders to understand organizational strengths and challenges and can serve as a starting point for meaningful dialogue on healthy life and ministry.

Saint Luke Institute’s full range of consultation services provides the expert assistance you need. Our confidential consultation services cover a variety of personnel, behavioral, or organizational needs to foster greater organizational functioning and healthy ministry. Whether you are as a bishop, major superior, or another church organizational leader, we are here to help.
