MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES
We are “breaking the silence” long maintained by the traditional church on the real-life experiences of mental health, suicide, addiction and more. BELOVED is a brave space where your story and your truth are held with grace, inclusion and compassion — not judgment. If you long to experience God and faith while living with mental illness or mental health challenges, BELOVED is the community for you.

Please find on this page resources to assist you in your mental health journey. If you would like to speak with one of our experienced ministry staff, please email dale@belovedsandiego.org.

Note that these resources are not a substitute for clinical care and/or medication as prescribed by your physician.
