Military and Family Life Counselors (MFLC)

Service members, spouses and kids under stress from moves

MFLCs are licensed counselors embedded at installations, schools and child and youth programs who provide short-term, confidential, non-medical counseling. They help with stress, relocation adjustment, grief, relationships and parenting. No records are kept except in limited duty-to-warn situations.

How to use it

Use the MFLC locator on Military OneSource or ask your family center or school liaison how to reach the local counselor.
