Grief Counseling:
Many of NYFC's clients utilize our counseling services after the loss of a loved one. NYFC's contract counselors understand that everyone grieves in a unique way. They also realize someone grieving after the natural, anticipated death of a loved one will likely experience different reactions to that loss than a person who is grieving due to losing a loved one to homicide, suicide or another traumatic event.

Group Therapy:
NYFC offers psychoeducational groups for female survivors of family violence and for people grieving the loss of a loved one. English and Spanish available. Please call to learn more about current or upcoming group schedules.

Assessments:
On a limited basis, NYFC counselors can provide drug testing and drug assessments for adolescents, as well as assessments for NYFC's First Offender Program for juveniles and their families

Bilingual/Bicultural Services:
Counseling services are available in Spanish. Our counseling staff includes therapists who are educated about various cultures and experienced working with individuals and families from a variety of cultures and countries of origin. Our full-time therapist, whose position is funded by a grant through the Office of the Attorney General of Texas, focuses on providing counseling to immigrant victims of violent crime in the Richardson community.
