About this Event

Facilitated by FOF Enterprises, Akemie Jones, LMFT, LCAS, CPTM

In a safe and supportive space, join us for a 4-hour guided workshop exploring how journaling can support mental and emotional well-being.

This is more than writing — it’s an opportunity to slow down, process, and reconnect with yourself.

During this workshop, you will learn:

  • How journaling supports mental and emotional health
  • The science behind expressive writing
  • Simple techniques to reduce stress and anxiety
  • Structured methods for processing emotions
  • How to begin (or restart) a consistent journaling practice

Participants will engage in guided writing exercises designed to help release stress, clarify emotions, and build self-awareness. Sharing is always optional. No writing experience is required.

You’ll leave with practical prompts, a structured workbook, and tools you can begin using immediately.

Whether you are new to journaling or returning after a long break, this workshop offers a grounding, therapeutic experience to support your growth.
