Who Are
MFT’s?
Marriage and Family
Therapists (MFT’s) are mental health professionals trained in
psychotherapy and family systems to diagnose and treat mental and
emotional disorders within the context of marriage, couples and
family systems.
Marriage and Family Therapists broaden the traditional emphasis on
the individual to attend to the nature and role of individuals in
primary relationship networks as marriage and the family. MFT’s
take a holistic perspective to health care; they are concerned
with the overall, long-term well-being of individuals and their
families. ©AAMFT
