As LMFT’s, we are held to the AAMFT Code of Ethics, which help define the ethical professional standards we must uphold. To learn more about the Code, please click here. Below is a section I care deeply about, the core values.

The core values of AAMFT embody:

1. Acceptance, appreciation, and inclusion of a diverse membership.

2. Distinctiveness and excellence in training of marriage and family therapists and those desiring to advance their skills, knowledge and expertise in systemic and relational therapies.

3. Responsiveness and excellence in service to members.

4. Diversity, equity and excellence in clinical practice, research, education and administration.

5. Integrity evidenced by a high threshold of ethical and honest behavior within Association governance and by members.
