VAMFT (Virginia Association for Marriage and Family Therapy) is an independent association representing the interests of the marriage and family therapy profession. VAMFT is dedicated to advancing marriage and family therapy, maintaining high ethical standards, promoting inclusivity and culture competence and increasing recognition and awareness of systemic family therapy. 

VAMFT is an association that advocates for and represents marriage and family therapists in Virginia. We work collaboratively with local, state and federal officials as well as other professional organizations to sponsor bills and get laws passed to benefit the work of marriage and family therapists. We collaborate with state boards to create regulations that expand access to mental health care for the public. 

We believe that together, we inspire positive change, celebrate diversity, and create a compassionate and inclusive environment where every individual and family can thrive. We are dedicated to fostering a community of highly skilled ethical marriage and family therapists who are committed to enhancing the quality of relationships and family life in Virginia.
