About Us
Equipping churches to support mental health since 2011
Anchor International equips faith communities to promote mental wellness for adults and teens through peer-led support groups
Since 2011, Anchor International has been creating space for faith and mental health. Founded by two seminary students who struggled with navigating the landscape of bipolar disorder in the context of their faith, Anchor International strives to provide people everywhere with a safe space to pursue both mental and spiritual wellness. Our programs are designed to create community, empower self-care, and embrace our innate value as beloved children of God.

Internships
Anchor International does not offer supervised internships; however, facilitating an Anchor International group is a fantastic way for counseling students to gain group experience.
By choosing to launch a group, you’ll gain valuable leadership experience by taking the initiative to find a co-facilitator, partner with a local church or organization, complete your training, and lead an 8-week mental health support group.
Please check with your degree program to determine whether this volunteer opportunity qualifies for credit hours.
Statement of Faith
The Nicene Creed is a declaration written by the early Church to bring unity among followers of Jesus Christ and is shared worldwide across many denominations today. As a Christ-centered non-profit organization, Anchor International aligns with The Nicene Creed as our Statement of Faith.
