Antioch University’s Master’s in Clinical Psychology program is a professional training program for those who want to become Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists. Our primary goal is to prepare competent psychotherapists who can provide therapeutic services in the local community and to the larger society.

Our Program emphasizes academic, practical, and personal knowledge that will enable each graduate to become competent in diagnosis, treatment planning, and psychological interventions with individuals, couples, and families. Multicultural competence and ethical practices are also emphasized. Our graduates are an integral part of the Santa Barbara professional community who benefit from the strong reputation Antioch has for master’s level professionals. We employ instructors who are active professionals working in community settings or private practice, and who have contemporary knowledge of the skills required to practice as a Marriage and Family Therapist.
