Overview

About Marriage and Family Therapy at Fuller Theological Seminary

As the institution that pioneered the integration of psychology and theology, Fuller offers you solid training that cultivates clinical excellence and professionalism undergirded by deep spiritual formation. Our faculty are not only highly respected scholars and practitioners in their fields, they are committed Christian disciples who interweave their faith organically into every class—giving you both the academic knowledge and theological foundation to provide life-giving therapeutic service in any setting, Christian or secular.

In Pasadena you will take core courses with the same “cohort” of students, enabling you to go deep with one another and build relationships for life. Our Arizona program similarly provides you an intimate community of rich sharing and formative friendships. Our faculty at both campuses love getting to know their students, encouraging lively classroom dialogue and investing in your personal and spiritual growth. You’ll participate in faculty-led small groups and retreats, exploring issues of calling, identity, and God’s presence in a context of genuine support.

Our faculty are closely involved in your clinical training, offering you practical, sensitive guidance in weekly feedback groups. Through a Marriage and Family Therapy program unique to Fuller Theological Seminary, selected students at the Pasadena campus also receive live supervision from certified faculty in either Restoration Therapy or Emotionally Focused Therapy. All students have access to a broad range of practicum options through our dozens of site connections. Whatever your passion, you’ll find a placement to help you test that call.
