Marriage and Family Therapist CPD Requirements in Spain

Marriage and Family Therapists in Spain follow a CPD-based model rather than a fixed hour total. Not a regulated profession in Spain. 'Marriage and Family Therapist' does not exist as a separate licensed profession; systemic/family therapy (terapia familiar/sistémica) is a specialization practised within the regulated psychology (or medicine/psychiatry) professions. Training and society memberships (e.g., FEATF - Federacion Espanola de Asociaciones de Terapia Familiar) are voluntary. Because there is no statutory license, there is no statutory CPD hour requirement.

Spain does not mandate specific CE subjects for Marriage and Family Therapist beyond the general requirement — any board-approved continuing education generally counts. Always confirm with the regulator.

Generally yes — Spain does not require live or interactive hours for Marriage and Family Therapist, so approved online / home-study CE can typically satisfy the requirement. Home-study note: Not applicable - profession not regulated.

Family/couples therapy is delivered under a regulated psychology or medical qualification; the underlying regulated profession (usually Psicólogo General Sanitario or Psicólogo Especialista en Psicología Clínica) has no statutory periodic CPD mandate. Private family-therapy association accreditations may set their own voluntary renewal/CPD expectations but these are not law.
