About the Military and Family Life Counseling (MFLC) Program
Booker T. Washington High School is pleased to offer non-medical counseling and support to our military-connected students. The MFLC program helps military families and children navigate the challenges with free face-to-face support. Our counselor provides confidential non-medical counseling services to students.
Child and youth behavioral military and family life counselors provide support to military children for a variety of issues, including low self-esteem, behavioral problems and changes at home. These counselors, who are part of the Military and Family Life Counseling Program, understand the issues military children face and can be especially
helpful during challenging periods, including deployments and PCS moves.
Counselors are licensed with a master’s degree or higher, and have a positive effect on:
General behavior
Performance in school
Relationships with family members and teachers
The licensed counselors in the MFLC Program address:
Behavioral issues, including bullying and anger management
Changes at home, such as deployment, reunion, divorce and grief
Communication and relationships at home and school
Life skills, such as problem solving and adjustment
Conversations in these sessions stay between the student and his or her counselor. The only exceptions to this rule are cases of domestic violence, abuse, and suicidal or homicidal threats. No counseling records are maintained.
