Ex-Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz seeks treatment for ‘depression and burnout’

Disgraced pastor Carl Lentz is getting help after being accused of cheating on his wife with “multiple” women.

The former leader of trendy Hillsong church in NYC is seeking treatment at an outpatient facility that specializes in depression, anxiety, and pastoral burnout, a source confirmed to Page Six Tuesday night.

“Carl wants to be better for his family and is dedicated to doing the work. His family is supporting him and hopes their privacy will be respected on this journey,” the source said.

Lentz was booted from Hillsong last month after 10 years shortly before confirming he had been unfaithful to his wife Laura, the mother of his three kids.

As we revealed, Lentz and his wife have been in “intensive” therapy; the source said he is working towards rebuilding her trust.

“He has no ill will towards the church and recognizes that they needed to take some course of action to address his missteps,” they added.

It was revealed that Lentz had been having an affair with Brooklyn designer Ranin Karim.
Hillsong chief Brian Houston was later caught on tape discussing Lentz’s multiple affairs.
