What is a Military Family Life Counselor? Military family life counselors (MFLCs) support military families through the unique challenges of military life, including cycles of deployment and reintegration, by providing non-medical, short-term counseling.

What is an MFLC’s role? Military Family Life Counselors provide consultation, training, and educational presentations/ workshops to program faculty, staff, parents, and children. MFLC’s support augments services already in place at each school. Counselors take part in everyday school activities and events. They are available for support in areas related to deployment and reintegration; family dynamics; positive coping mechanisms; staff support and education; parent education and stress reduction. Counselors are also available to facilitate groups and training to build leadership skills; manage anger; build self-esteem and confidence and strengthen communication.
