St Luke Institute
We seek to be a resource for the Catholic Church and its leaders in the area of human formation and healthy ministry. We do this through three areas of service: consultation for leadership, residential and outpatient treatment, and education and research.
Over the 2012-2013 fiscal year, we provided treatment to 482 individuals and online and in-person education to over 3,100 people. More than $2.5 million in charitable care was provided over a five-year period.
Our dedicated staff understands, respects and values the vocations of those we serve, and is committed to providing our clients and residents with quality psychological therapy, spiritual support and physical wellness. Our treatment approach is tailored to the individual and designed to assist him or her in healing from anxiety, addictions, depression, substance abuse, boundary issues, interpersonal problems, sexual issues or other challenges.
We participate in the healing ministry of Christ by promoting the health and well-being of Catholic clergy and women and men religious in the United States and abroad. To accomplish this task, we provide mental health treatment, offer education and wellness programs, and conduct research. In these services, we strive to integrate the highest quality spiritual, psychological and physical resources within the context of a Christian community. The Institute conducts its ministry in harmony with the teachings of the Catholic Church.
As a multi-service institute, our vision calls us to reach out in compassionate care to serve those who serve others in communities of faith. This vision calls us to:
- Treat men and women with a broad range of difficulties in living
- Widen our outreach to women religious
- Expand our educational offerings and wellness programs
- Respond to emerging needs of those in ministry
- Research and disseminate knowledge about the care of people in ministry
- Reach out to the wider community for support
- Explore providing services to other local Churches and cultures
- Invite conversation around critical issues impacting those in ministry
- Offer consultation services to bishops and major superiors
