Faith-Based MFT Programs
in California

 

Most MFT programs in California are secular. Even many universities that were founded on the principles of a faith tradition offer a generalist MFT program. However, some MFT programs intentionally integrate religion or spirituality with the core MFT curriculum to some extent—from slightly influenced to mission-driven to graduate faith-based marriage and family therapists. This spectrum of faith-based programs are listed below.
