  • No long narratives to generate

  • No insurance to file

  • No progress notes

  • No treatment plans

Counseling services are generally preventive in nature and address topics such as living conditions, life skills, relationships at home and work, stress management, adjustment issues, marital problems, parenting, fear, grief, loss and much more. Our counselors use their clinical skills and experience to identify high-risk behaviors and assist in referral for ongoing treatment and support.

While helping America's bravest and their families, MFLC counselors also benefit from:

  • Free work-related professional development courses.

  • iPad provided for easy digital reporting, with no PII or PHI.

  • Reimbursement for job-related license renewal fees.

  • Flexible 40-hour work weeks.

Leidos partners with the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) Military and Family Life Counseling (MFLC) Program to provide highly confidential counseling services and support to military service members and their families. Non-medical counseling is preventive in nature and aims to address and solve issues before they become more harmful problems.
