Therapy & Training
JFL Center has offered a variety of afternoon, day long, and weekend workshops for recovering individuals, women, and couples. Workshops afford an opportunity to work through issues in a more condensed way. Our facilitators utilize warm up through sociometry to create cohesion and safer space and to identify common themes. Our modalities are primarily experiential in nature - embodied and creative. If you do not see a workshop that meets your needs, feel free to reach out and talk with us about creating a workshop.

What Our Clients Say

- Kristen
“In our workshop, I was able to recognize we all had much more in common than we had differences. It was so strengthening to be working through difficult coupleship issues with the support and understanding of other partners. And it was validating to feel seen by those partners who have struggled with addiction, and to feel safe around them – to be vulnerable with each other.”
