Marriage and Family Therapist

Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) / Csaladterapeuta
Regulator: No state regulator; family therapy training is offered by professional societies/universities (e.g. Magyar Csaladterapias Egyesulet) but is not a state-licensed profession
CPDNOT regulated as a distinct profession in Hungary. There is no statutory 'Marriage and Family Therapist' license. Family therapy (csaladterapia) exists as a post-graduate/specialist training and society membership pathway, typically pursued by clinical psychologists, psychiatrists or psychotherapists who are themselves regulated under the healthcare continuing-education system. Any mandatory CPD arises from an individual's underlying healthcare qualification (clinical psychologist / psychotherapist, 250 points per 5-year cycle), not from a separate MFT license. Society-level CPD or supervision requirements may apply for retaining professional-society accreditation but are voluntary/private, not state-mandated.
No specific live / interactive hour requirement

Home study: N/A - not a regulated license.

Board notes: Practitioners are governed by whatever underlying healthcare credential they hold; the 'family therapist' designation is a training/competency, not an independent regulated title with its own CPD cycle.
