Michael Krahn | Counsellor
I have a deep passion for walking alongside those who feel weary, burdened, or stuck—whether in personal struggles, relationships, or ministry. I focus on providing a safe, grace-filled place for men, couples, and ministry leaders to process challenges and find renewal. Some of my areas of interest include pastoral and ministry burnout, leadership stress and conflict, spiritual struggles, marriage and family challenges, and personal growth.
I have been in pastoral ministry for over 15 years as a pastor, coach, and confidante to ministry leaders. I received my Certification in Biblical Counseling through the Association of Biblical Counselors and have experience in leadership coaching, pastoral care, and spiritual direction. I am also the founder of The Shepherd’s Refuge, a ministry dedicated to supporting pastors in their spiritual and emotional well-being.
I’ve been married to Anne Marie since 1995, and we have three adult daughters. We live in Ontario, Canada, where I enjoy writing, photography, songwriting, and meaningful conversations over good coffee.
