The U.S. Department of Education has proposed sweeping updates to federal student loans, including phasing out Grad PLUS loans and narrowing the definition of who qualifies as a “professional student.”

If finalized, these changes could significantly restrict borrowing options for current and future Marriage and Family Therapists and other Master’s-level health providers.

We’re actively working alongside national partners to push back through coordinated advocacy and grassroots action -- but we need your help!

Get ready to pack your bags for San Diego - our Annual Conference is just over three months away! 💼

This year, we’re thrilled to feature Dr. Michael Dow as our opening keynote speaker. 🎤 👋

Dr. Mike is a New York Times bestselling author and has written eight books, including The Ketamine Breakthrough and The Brain Fog Fix. His workshop, Trauma-Informed Psychotherapies as Mind–Body Medicine, explores the next frontier of trauma treatment -- one that recognizes suffering not only as a psychological experience, but as a full-body imprint.

You'll learn how YOU, as an MFT, are uniquely positioned to deliver cutting-edge modalities such as EMDR, IFS, Brainspotting, clinical hypnosis, and somatic therapies that represent the most advanced work in our field. This is the future of psychotherapy: precise, embodied, neuroscience-informed care that truly heals!
