Marriage and Family Therapy

Faculty and Staff

Faculty

Members of the MFT faculty provide rich resources in academic, clinical, and spiritual leadership. Faculty members are licensed mental health professionals, and in addition to their teaching and research interests, they each have their own private practice caseloads. They are all dedicated Christians and are intentional about integrating their spiritual and professional lives. Faculty are also involved in the profession through membership in the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, the Christian Association for Psychological Studies, and other professional organizations. The faculty regularly present research at state, national, and international conferences and publish their work in peer-reviewed academic journals.
