meet our lftc interns
lftc is a training facility for graduate students in 世界杯2022预选赛录像回放 's master of marriage and family therapy (mft) program. lftc interns are being trained to diagnose and treat depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and other mental health problems while also addressing relationship concerns such as couple conflict and parent-child issues. they provide care under the supervision of aamft approved supervisors, giving lftc clients the advantage of working with a treatment team as opposed to an individual therapist.
all lftc interns adhere to the highest standards in the field by tracking client data, collaborating with one another, and committing to daily attempts to grow their clinical skill set, resulting in significant improvements for the average lftc client.
contrary to what many would expect, research shows that therapist experience is not a strong predictor of treatment outcome (e.g., goldberg et al., 2016). in other words, therapists with decades of experience don’t necessarily get better results than less experienced clinicians. what a therapist does in therapy matters more than how long the therapist has been doing it.
