Our approach to family therapy education has been described in our best-selling books, Essential Skills in Family Therapy, 3 rd edition (Guilford, 2018) Clinician’s Guide to Research Methods: Foundations of Evidence-based Practice (Guilford, 2014), and Essential Assessment Skills for Couple and Family Therapists (Guilford, 2011). Our biospsychosocial, systems approach centers on relationships, focusing on cultivating a deeper understanding of how family interactions and social connections affect our daily lives. After graduation, students become Registered Associate Marital and Family Therapists and continue their training in preparation for licensure. Full-time students graduate in 2 years and accrue approximately 1100 hours toward the 3,000 hours required for MFT licensure in California. Students complete rigorous coursework and a 12-month clinical practicum in community sites, such as Rady Children’s Hospital Outpatient Psychiatry and the Eating Disorders Center for Treatment and Research at UCSD. The MFT Program is accredited by the Board of Behavioral Sciences (California) and the Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy (COAMFTE). The Marital and Family Therapy (MFT) program combines personalized instruction, hands-on clinical experience, and internationally renowned faculty.
