How can one get a degree in counseling or psychology?

Becoming a Marriage and Family Therapist requires a graduate degree (Master's Level) or higher. Many universities offer graduate programs specifically in Marriage and Family Therapy. Once you have completed the program, there are often clinical hours that will need to be completed under supervision in order to become licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in your state.

The best place to begin looking is at your state board that regulates the counseling professions. See what their requirements are for licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist and then use this information to begin establishing a plan of action.
