Chaplaincy Resources

AMC does not provide direct chaplaincy services, if you are experiencing a crisis and need someone to talk to please call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to be connected with skilled, trained counselors at a crisis center available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Additionally Naseeha provides suicide specific support 12-9pm EST by calling 1 (866) 627-3342

Chaplains work for particular institutions and are typically unable to provide services to individuals outside of those institutions. You can search for a Muslim therapist in your community using the Muslim Mental Health Directory. 

The following is a compilation of books, articles, websites, informational toolkits, service and professional associations, and counseling-related materials that may be useful to our member chaplains as well as, in some cases, chaplains of other traditions serving Muslims. AMC does not endorse any particular item listed here nor are we affiliated with the providers. If you find links have expired or else are not what they are described as, please contact us.
