NFRC has been a great resource for our family over the past few years. The seminars, individual therapy, and groups have all been helpful in addressing different aspects of our family transition.

The entire NFRC staff - therapists, administrative staff, interns and peer counselors are very caring and committed to helping both children and parents navigate a difficult time. I think the support groups for children, teens, women and men are helpful in letting you know that you are not alone in the separation/divorce process.

The National Family Resiliency Center (NFRC) has been a great resource and support for me and my children. NFRC offers wonderful support seminars for woman, men and children of all ages. After dealing with a life altering event, the NFRC had a support group for me and my teenage sons. The staff and personnel are phenomenal! They are caring, understanding, nonjudgmental, supportive, highly professional and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend anyone struggling with any type of issue (divorce, separation, abuse, grieving the death of a loved one, etc..) to seek the services at NFRC. The staff helped me and my sons to emotional get back on our feet and live the happy lives we were meant to live. THANK YOU NFRC!!! ~ Peggy (age 54)

In 2007, I called up NFRC because I needed a divorce coach for a collaborative divorce. That was the best decision that I ever made and a decision that helped me get through the divorce without a lot of trauma. How? Through the ongoing support of the NFRC staff. They cared about me as a person and let me know that all would be well in the end. A year or two after my divorce was finalized I joined NFRCs Womens Group - a group of women going through divorce or separation who need the support of other women. The Womens Group has been a life-changing experience for me and those who attend. Women share their stories with other women who are able understand and empathize with their situation. Its similar to the experience of traveling in a foreign country where no one speaks English and then happening on a stranger from your hometown. The connection is immediate because of your common experiences. NFRC provides emotional support to many in their community, giving back to the community in so many different ways - they help transform broken lives into lives worth living again.

NFRC has been instrumental and helping me and my family in working through difficult challenges related to separation and divorce which has resulted in significant improvements in all of our relationships and has enabled me and my ex-wife to continue to effectively co-parent our two children for the past 15 years. Over the years I have continued to obtain personal and family counseling through NFRC that has been instrumental in providing me with the foundation to strengthen and improve the relationships I have with my wife, ex-wife, children and now grandchildren. As a result of my experiences with NFRC, I have also become a peer counselor where I have the opportunity to work with parents who are going through seperation and divorce and to share with them the importance of effective co-parenting and provide them with encouragement and best practices that enabled me and my ex-wife to effectively co-parent our sons. Based on my 15 years association with NFRC, I have the highest regard for the organization, its leadership and staff as they truly change the lives of all they touch including those most vulnerable, our children.

I completely agree with AB Hs review.My 15 yr old child, a few months shy of sixteen, was forced into reunification with his father and the first 2 visits he played the game as I told him had had to show up. The third visit, he told the truth he had had been telling his individual therapist for years, the truth his Best Interest Attorney if you can call her that--as all she did was listen to the abusive ex-husband who fired his multiple lawyers to represent himself in order to have direct access to the BIA --never mind that he had a protection order against him to stay away from his child [after spraining my wrist in front of my child in an attempt to remove him from our home against his will and after his father had already not seen him for more than a month and just showed up unannounced expecting to see him]. His Reunification Therapist Barry made life worse for my child, his therapist and other medical professionals when he insisted that my child was psychotic and needed immediate hospitalization.Thankfully my amazing lawyer and his amazing medical care team convinced the Best Interest Attorney that she knew this was what he felt about his father and that no one would be harmed unless he was forced to see his father again. After daily check-in with my child and BIA for 2 weeks, they decided he was not in need of hospitalization and just did not want to see his father.Reunification Therapist I later found out was a fathers rights advocate and his degree is in early childhood. As I had not choice in who my child was assigned as he was picked out by the BIA, I did not research this until after the fact.If you too are forced to send your child here, check out the qualifications if therapist assigned to your child before bringing them. i would have rather been in contempt of court than to have had my child have the experience he did here. Several years later, he still obsesses over the events.

The NFRC is full of incompetent counselors who profit from the court system. Families are court ordered to do counseling there and the counselors even require you to sign a consent form that you will never sue them or file a complaint before starting court-ordered therapy. The counselors charge double the cost of any therapy office (between $200-400/hr). Reunification therapy is basically about forcing children to visit with the parent they never want to see again. Do they really think this creates good long-term relationships with that parent? I have been appalled at the number of families who are forced to go there, waste money, and watch their children learn to hate counseling. I dont know how the counselors convince themselves that they are using their license for good.

My experience at the NFRC was truly a transformative one. When my mom and stepfather separated several years ago, I came to NFRC hurt and confused. Through their spectacular counseling services I was able to recover from the pain that this experience brought and shared the coping skills I learned through their peer counseling program. As a peer counselor I worked alongside the NFRC in group counseling sessions with kids and later teens in order to help support my peers through their own family transitions. I never stopped learning as a peer counselor and the discussions and groups never stopped being relevant to my life. This organization helped me not only to cope with separation and divorce, but it also gave me the tools to continue building on my relationships after the facts. The program gave me more confidence as an individual and within my relationships. I am so grateful to this organization that has been with me through the most formative years of my life and I would highly recommend their programs.
