Trauma Healing Institute is a global organization.

We are dedicated to helping people around the world heal from the pain of trauma. We support individuals, churches, and other organizations with ministry tools and resources they can use to help people heal in their own communities.

Through the Trauma Healing Institute, American Bible Society helps equip individuals and churches to be part of God’s healing process for those experiencing trauma by sharing the life-changing message of scripture. 

Our program combines the wisdom of scripture, proven mental health practices, and the power of community, and is delivered through accessible technology and small group settings. For more than 20 years, people of faith all over the world have been learning how to safely and effectively lead groups for vulnerable people so they can grow closer to God.

Our Pillars

Healing In Community

Trauma keeps people from experiencing the life transforming message of God’s Word. In this small group setting, certified healing group leaders bring together proven mental health practices and the wisdom of the Bible in a way that’s accessible and begins to remove those roadblocks.

Equipping Local Churches

Trauma, grief, and loss exist in every community. That’s why we make it possible for local churches to be part of the healing process. Our resources use existing tools of the church - the Bible and community - coupled with mental health best practices to equip the church to respond. 

Trustworthy, Faith-driven Program

Research has shown that our program can significantly reduce PTSD, trauma-related grief, and negative emotions, as well as increasing Bible and spiritual engagement.

Accessible Technology

The Trauma Healing App delivers both training and curriculum in audio & video formats, in various languages, so this effective program can be used quickly and easily around the world. The THI app, along with an integrated community platform, provides a suite of ready-to-use trauma healing resources for churches, allowing them to put an effective program into place with minimal effort.


Trauma knows no boundaries. It affects people of all ages, genders, races. It affects people you know. The Trauma Healing Institute equips people like you, in communities and churches like yours, to help create safe spaces for healing, so others may know how to love God with all their heart, soul and mind.
