What are MFTs
Marriage and Family Therapists (MFTs) are licensed mental health
professionals who work with individuals; couples—whether or not
married; families of all types; and groups to cure or relieve mental,
emotional, and relational concerns of all kinds. MFTs work in a variety
of settings throughout California and the rest of the country providing
mental health services, as well as provide services in independent
practice. MFTs have minimally acquired two-year masters degrees, 3,000
hours of supervised experience, and have passed two rigorous exams.
