The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) recognized an emerging need to provide information support to Soldiers and families in addition to resident counseling services at installations.  The Military Family Life Consultants (MFLC) Program uses licensed clinicians with Masters Degrees and at least five years experience in Social Work, Counseling, or related clinical discipline.  Consultants are trained on military specific topics including basic orientation to the deployment cycle, military culture, the chain of command, and reporting requirements in accordance with Army Family Advocacy Program.

MFLC is an Army program designed to provide anonymous, confidential support to Soldiers and their family members, especially those returning from deployments. Units that return from deployment may request Life Consultants through Army Community Service.  Program serves active duty and mobilized National Guard and Army Reserve soldiers and their families.

MFLC Counselors can help you and your family problem solve with issues resulting from deployment, reunions, reintegration and other times of change including:

• Marriage and Relationship Issues
• Family Issues
• Stress and Anxiety
• Depression
• Grief and Loss
• Anger management
• Parent and child communication

Soldiers and families are entitled to six prepaid, face-to-face counseling sessions.
