Prelicensed therapists: Have you checked out our Learning Library? 📚

September is Su***de Prevention Month, and one of the most valuable trainings you can take right now is our Su***de Prevention Series.

Even though you don’t need CEs yet, this workshop gives you a head start on the BBS requirement for licensed clinicians. More importantly, it equips you with practical tools for su***de risk assessment and intervention that you can apply in your work today.

It’s never too early to build confidence in supporting clients through their most vulnerable moments. 💙

You might remember last May when the BBS voted to move toward accepting the National MFT Clinical Exam for California licensure.

That was just the first step. Now, we've got another update!

On August 22nd, the BBS took the next big step forward by formally approving the proposed regulatory amendments to adopt the national exam.

What’s next? The rulemaking process will begin to make this official, and CAMFT will continue to advocate at every stage to ensure a smooth, accessible transition for applicants.

This means we’re closer than ever to better license portability and fewer hurdles for California MFTs seeking federal employment! 🙌

Your questions deserve real answers, from real lawyers.

Starting out in the field comes with a steep learning curve. Whether you’re navigating an ethical dilemma during practicum, puzzling over a billing situation, or trying to make sense of licensing requirements, our staff attorneys are here to guide you every step of the way.

It’s one of the most valuable benefits in your Pre-Licensed CAMFT membership.

Pre-licensees, have you ever called our legal hotline? Share how it helped you, or what questions you’d ask if you needed to call today.

Loyola Marymount University celebrated one of their own Hannah Checkwicz-Grosberg, as a recipient of our prestigious Clinton E. Phillips Scholarship -- and we couldn't be prouder! 🎓

Hannah used part of her award to join White Therapists Fighting Racism, an LA CAMFT group committed to helping white-identified therapists grow as allies for racial justice.

Join us this Friday at 10:30am for a special, free webinar that’s open to all.

This workshop equips clinicians with the knowledge and tools to effectively support undocumented clients and families impacted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) separations and deportation.

Emphasizing culturally responsive, socio-culturally attuned care, the workshop will guide clinicians in developing treatment approaches that center and affirm the lived experiences of individuals and families navigating the threat or reality of deportation. Mental health professionals will gain practical skills and interventions tailored to the unique challenges faced by this community.

A recording will be available to watch three business days after the event concludes.
