Our chapter has kept going strong as we continue the year. We have had the joy of hosting numerous continuing education events, both online and in-person, and we have continued with our membership meet ups every other month. 

Our peer consultation group now has two different options, thanks to our incredible members who were willing to volunteer. For those who are prelicensed, our 3000 Club has a monthly support group as well as regular clinical skills workshops. This year, we have also added a virtual member book club where we have a chance to gather and discuss topics that support us in our practice.

Our chapter exists to help you find community as well as connect with other marriage and family therapists in the region. We strive to help you along your professional journey by providing opportunities for learning, networking, and growth. Whether you’re just starting your professional journey or a seasoned provider, we are here for you!
