I’ll be completing my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy soon, after which I’ll be applying for a state
license. Where do I go from there? What are my options? How do I find a job in the right field?? Thanks.

Professional associations are great ways to find out about jobs and advancement in your field, websites of AAMFT and ACA have job listings, information about issues and trends in the field and other opportunities. If you join while you’re in school, you pay a lot less than if you wait until you’re a full-time therapist. Talk to your faculty and practicum supervisor about jobs and ask if they will give you recommendations. Check out your campus career center to search for job listings, and get help with resume and job search. Network with people who graduated before you, ask their advice, job leads etc. There are lots of places for MFT’s to work; private practice, county or state agencies, non-profits, schools. Learn about the different settings, their philosophy, approach to treatment, professional development opportunities, etc. Visit websites of prospective employers.

Well, non-profit neighbhood services are a good starting place. Friends of the Family, Family Services
Those kinds of places.
There is the County department of Social Services. The Veterans Administration.
You probably need some seasoning before you can go to work at some large “Psychology Firm” that occupies a whole building and employes a bunch of Associates.
After 3 years you can get your own independent license.
You can work part time at the Neighborhood place and part time at your own little office or maybe get in with a group of people.

One of the most common questions spouses ask when confronting a marriage crisis is this: How can I save my marriage if my partner doesn’t want to help find a solution? How do I succeed I am trying to save my marriage on my own? Learn here https://tr.im/jxFO4
It is a typical enough story: one partner leaves, the other stays. One remains ‘in love’, the other is uncertain. Whatever it is that has caused a couple to be apart, the one person who remains bears the prospect, fear, doubt, desire, hope of saving his or her marriage’ alone.
