"The training I've received at Ferkauf's MFT program is allowing me to make a real, lasting impact on the lives of individuals, couples, and families that will benefit our present and future world. The guidance and support of my peers and professors in the program has instilled confidence in me as I transition into the real world of therapy. I am grateful that I found the MFT program as I considered my career opportunities."

"Ferkauf's faculty takes a personal interest in your success. They offer personalized recommendations, guide you towards ideal field placements, and provide continuous support as you pursue your career in therapy."

"Creative individuals are often able to adapt well to multiple social contexts and environments; they employ multiple strategies for stress and anxiety management.  The promotion of creativity and effective communication and understanding among members of a family or other interpersonal social contexts can encourage pro-social behaviors that pay dividends throughout one's personal and professional development.  Marriage and family therapy addresses such pro-social skill-building along a developmental continuum."

"Teaching graduate students in psychology is about more than sharing knowledge—it's about inspiring critical thinking, fostering empathy, and equipping future professionals to be agents of change. In my Couples in Crisis course within the Marriage and Family Therapy program, students gain hands-on experience through my newly developed Gottman Intervention Practice Lab, where they receive specialized training in Gottman Therapy Levels 1 and 2. This practical training not only deepens their understanding of relationship dynamics but also enhances their marketability, making them more competitive in the therapy field. By mastering evidence-based modalities like Gottman Therapy, students are better prepared to meet the diverse needs of their clients and succeed in their careers."
