TESTIMONIALS

"I became a chapter member in 2017 with the intention to connect and network with other therapists, not knowing that I was gaining so much more than that. As a board member, and how having served as President & Past President, I can say that I gained a community, a family, and grew personally and professionally in ways I could not have imagined. Thank you SFV-CAMFT for giving me so much and allowing me to serve."

"The members of LA-CAMFT, and especially the Diversity Committee, continue to help me believe in myself as a new AMFT. I’ve taken away valuable leadership and clinical skills from this incredibly altruistic and intelligent team, however, nothing can ever replace the sense of community and authentic care I feel from the members I work with monthly."

“Being a chapter member and leader has changed the course of my clinical career. By fostering community and connection for my chapter, I've built lifelong friendships that have impacted my life personally and professionally. Being a leader is a profound privilege to cultivate the change I wish to see in my local clinical community. It's both a gift and a lesson to be a leader and something I would encourage other therapists to embark on if they are passionate about creating impact outside the therapy room.”

“When I moved to the Central Coast in 2017, I sought out community to better my professional and personal growth. Being a member and volunteer of CCC-CAMFT has provided this through thoughtful trainings and events, a strong network of clinicians to consult with and refer to, a space to cultivate and exercise my professional interests, and a place to develop deep meaningful friendships.”
