The Master of Arts in Couple and Family Therapy (CFT) program offered in Irvine provides training for a career as a professional marriage and family therapist. Students are trained to treat relational mental health issues with individuals, couples and families from a systemic perspective. Skills are developed in the mental health assessment, diagnosis and treatment of individuals and relationship systems. The program provides an integrative approach to the major systemic theories and interventions. It fulfills all academic requirements for application to the State of California's examination for a marriage and family therapist license (Section 4980.40 and 4980.41 of Business and Professions Code). Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists work in a variety of settings including hospitals, clinics, social service agencies, churches, educational institutions and private practice. The CFT master's program offers concentrations in chemical dependency, gerontology, and Latin American Family Therapy. Each of these concentrations requires additional coursework.
