What is the therapists educational and training background?
In most cases, the professional will answer this question in terms of their graduate education. The therapist might have a doctorate or a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy or an allied discipline such as psychology, clinical social work, medicine/psychiatry, psychiatric nursing, or the ministry. If the professional’s degree is not in marriage and family therapy, you could ask about additional post-graduate training they have completed in marriage and family therapy.
