Dr. Jessica Baudoin, President

Welcome to LAMFT.org

Welcome to the official website of the Louisiana Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (LAMFT)! As a professional organization, our purpose is to advocate for the interests, activities, and values of marriage and family therapists in the state of Louisiana.

Public

The Public section of the LAMFT website provides members of the public, in search of a therapist, the ability to find a therapist in their area on-line through AAMFT’s TherapistLocator.net. Similarly, clinicians can search for potential referral sources through TherapistLocator.net. The Public section also provides members of the public with the ability to learn more about Marriage and Family Therapy as a profession and about common family problems.

Clinicians

The Clinicians section provides MFTs with information on the benefits of joining LAMFT and AAMFT and the ability to join on-line. In addition, clinicians will find practice resources, information on LAMFT sponsored workshops and conferences (including online registration), as well as LAMFT Approved workshops details and guidelines for applying for such approval. Licensed MFTs will also find information pertaining to the Marriage and Family Therapy Advisory Committee Members of the LPC Board, the licensing renewal process, and to the Approved Supervisor Application Process.

Students

The Students section of the LAMFT website provides students with information on working toward and gaining licensure as an LMFT, including a listing of Approved Supervisors in the state who have given their permission to be listed, as well as information about the National MFT Exam. In addition, students can learn more about graduate schools in Louisiana, the LAMFT Annual Minority Fellowship, and how to gain free liability insurance through CPH.

Members

The Members section of the LAMFT website provides LAMFT members with information on the LAMFT Executive Board, it’s meetings, it’s history, and how to nominate members for board positions. The LAMFT quarterly newsletter, The Monitor, is also being archived in the Members section of the LAMFT website. The Members section of the LAMFT website is also where members can stay abreast of pertinent legislative issues.
