Victim Counseling

The Family Counseling Center provides free professional counseling for crime victims and their families, helping them navigate the emotional and psychological challenges following a traumatic event. This service is available at no charge to individuals with a relevant police report, offering a safe space to begin healing.

Support for Crime Victims

Victim counseling is designed to support individuals and families affected by crime. The program provides free, unlimited counseling sessions to help victims cope with trauma, rebuild their confidence, and regain control of their lives. Services are available to anyone impacted by the crime, including immediate family members.

No referral is necessary to access this service, though victims may also be referred by law enforcement, a Victim Assistance Program, women’s shelters, rape crisis centers, or children’s advocacy centers.
