Have you ever wondered, “What is therapy?” We interviewed some of our first year therapists to see how they defined therapy and their personal therapeutic approach.

As many of you know, our clinic provides comprehensive therapeutic services to the community as well as trains and educates future Couple & Family Therapists. The academic program that provides this training and education has been reaccredited for seven years! This is a big accomplishment and the clinic and program are proud to be able to continue to offer these services to both the community and the academic world.

🌟 We are thrilled to announce that the Program has earned full reaccreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy Education (COAMFTE) for seven years—from November 1, 2024, to November 1, 2031!

After a comprehensive review, COAMFTE has confirmed that our program meets all standards with zero stipulations, revisions, or additional data required—a testament to the hard work of our faculty, staff, and students. This exceptional achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence in education.

Congratulations to everyone who helped make this possible!
