Our Pre-Licensed Summit will have a featured guest: The Board of Behavioral Sciences! 🧬

We'll end our special online event with the BBS' presentation, Pathway to Licensure: Supervised Experience. We'll hear from speakers Andrea Patrick LMFT and Hayley Sutter as they delve into topics like the application of the 90-day rule for counting experience hours. You'll also hear valuable tips for avoiding common errors that sometimes delay application approval and licensure.

Pre-licensees: We hope to see you there!

October is Substance Use Prevention Month, and early intervention can change everything. 💙

As pre-licensees, you’re learning to notice the small signs: the shifts in behavior, the unspoken worries, the stories between the lines. Every moment of compassion, curiosity, and conversation can make a difference.

Keep leaning in, listening deeply, and helping clients feel seen early on. That’s where prevention truly begins!

Originally recorded on June 6, this 3-hour workshop is available now on demand.

The Virtual Pre-Licensed Summit returns on Wednesday, December 3! 🎉

Pre-licensed MFTs: while most loan repayment and student-focused programs are closed right now, there’s still big funding coming into behavioral health!

The Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program is investing $800M+ to expand treatment and service resources across California, supporting Medi-Cal members and vulnerable populations.

Why does this matter for you?

Because more funding = more jobs, more training sites, and more opportunities for MFTs entering the field!

Stay tuned -- we’ll share more student loan and repayment opportunities as they reopen!

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.
