About the MFT Marriage & Family Therapy Cert Exam
The Marriage and Family Therapy National Examination (MFT) is a licensure examination administered by the Association of Marital and Family Therapy Regulatory Boards (AMFTRB) for professionals seeking to become licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs). The MFT exam assesses a candidate's knowledge and skills necessary to provide safe and effective marriage and family therapy services, as determined by the professional practice analysis conducted by the AMFTRB.
To be eligible for the MFT exam, candidates must meet their state's educational and experiential requirements for licensure. This typically includes:
- Holding a master's or doctoral degree in marriage and family therapy or a related field from an accredited institution; and
- Completing a specified number of supervised clinical hours (usually around 3,000 hours).
The MFT exam is a computer-based test consisting of 180 multiple-choice questions and candidates have a total of 4 hours to complete the exam.
The MFT exam covers six topics:
- Practice of Systemic Therapy
- Assessing, Hypothesizing, and Diagnosing
- Designing and Conducting Treatment
- Evaluating Ongoing Process and Terminating Treatment
- Managing Crisis Situations
- Maintaining Ethical, Legal, and Professional Standards
The MFT exam is a crucial step in becoming a licensed marriage and family therapist. It demonstrates a candidate's readiness to provide competent, ethical, and culturally sensitive services to individuals, couples, and families, helping them improve their relationships and overall well-being. Passing the MFT exam is one of the requirements for becoming a licensed marriage and family therapist. However, each state has its own specific licensure requirements, which may include additional exams, background checks, and application fees.
