What We Do

We strive every day to accomplish this mission by:

• offering individual, couples and family counseling services to the community;

• offering clinical support groups and programs for children on the autism spectrum
  and their parents, women and girls, and young children;

• the cooperation between the Westbrook school system and our marriage and family
  interns who work together to give students the opportunity to be successful in the
  school environment.

Counseling Services are available to anyone who needs this support.  We offer a sliding scale fee.  We do not turn people away based on their ability to pay.

WYFS Gratefully Accepts Funds

Head of School Phil Cocchiola presented Jacqueline Ward, Executive Director of Westbrook Youth and Family Services, a check from the “Lights on Westbrook” photography exhibition held at Oxford on March 10.   As part of Oxford Academy’s outreach to the community, the exhibition raised over $1,700 for Westbrook Youth and Family Services.  

Resources Right Here

Thanks to a grant by the Westbrook Foundation, the WYFS website now has a Resource Section. We'll use this area to keep you informed about area resources for parenting, education, mental health services, social services and ASD support.
