The Mental Health Training Center

The Mental Health Training Center (MHTC) is a 12-lesson video course (about 10 hours total) designed to equip future and current missionaries with the mental and emotional skills they need to thrive in missionary life.

The full course includes about 10 hours of video content, plus time for reflection and workbook exercises.

You can move through it at your own pace:

• 1 lesson per week → 12-week learning journey

• 2 lessons per week → 6 weeks

• 3 lessons per week → 4 weeks

• Or even a weekend deep dive if time is short!

For the best results, we recommend spreading lessons out over time so you can practice and internalize the principles—but even last-minute learning is better than none!

You’ll receive instant access to all 12 video lessons and bonus materials upon purchase.

You can:

• Stream lessons directly online

• Watch on your laptop, phone, or tablet

Everything is designed to work smoothly with mission prep schedules and flexible study time.

Yes. Every lesson is grounded in Christlike principles of compassion, awareness, service, and self-mastery.
It’s not a replacement for gospel study—it’s a complement to it.

While The Mental Health Training Center is intended for pre-mission preparation, mission presidents may support this kind of training as valuable self-care and resilience-building for current missionaries who did not take the course before their missions.

If you missionary is struggling out in the field, it may be beneficial to ask their mission leaders if they could go through The Mental Health Training Center on P-days to strengthen their mental health!

Absolutely. The MHTC is an excellent resource for parents, leaders, or anyone supporting a missionary.
Many families choose to watch lessons together to understand missionary stress, learn communication skills, and support their missionary more effectively.
