What is the

Alaska Association of Marriage and Family Therapy?

AKAMFT is the Alaska division of the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT), the National association for our profession based in Washington D. C. Since 1942, AAMFT has established and maintained standards for the practice of marriage and family therapy and has been involved with the problems, needs and changing patterns of couple and family relationships. As AAMFT promotes increased understanding, research and education in our field on a national level, AKAMFT does so on a state level. AKAMFT actively develops and promotes legislation that ensures practitioners of the highest quality meet public needs. AKAMFT educates Alaskan therapists and the public about how to build healthier relationships and families.
