Cultivating community.
Restoring families.

For more than 15 years, Centered For Life has been helping individuals, couples and families heal from past hurts, navigate their present struggles, and move toward future hope. We address the whole person: body, soul and spirit.

As a non‑profit Christian counseling center founded by Steve and Debby Temmer in 2010, the Centered for Life team has laid a deep legacy in the Golden Isles of investing in people and helping them find freedom in their life.

We offer clinical counseling, life coaching, and pastoral counseling for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. We also provide group therapy as well as retreat and conference work.
