RECAMFT offers prelicensed folks a membership for $25/year. However, if finances are getting in the way of joining RECAMFT, we offer a work exchange program which will waive the fee. In exchange for membership, prelicensed members can assist with some of RECAMFT's monthly tasks. For more information please email

In November 2021 RECAMFT started a scholarship for prelicensed and newly licensed members. You can learn more about how you can qualify for the Joe and Pamela Ward Memorial Scholarship here.

RECAMFT Mentorship - a no-cost benefit for RECAMFT prelicensed and newly licensed members


RECAMFT is delighted to offer a no-cost mentoring program to support our prelicensed members who are the future of our profession! RECAMFT Mentors are licensed therapists volunteering their time for about two hours each month.

Members are encouraged to call more than one licensed mentor to potentially have a wide variety of contact with professionals. Interns may use up to two hours/month with one or more Volunteer Mentors. This could be four 30 minute phone calls, or two one-hour face-to-face sessions.

Some of the ways to use our Volunteer Mentors:

  • Talk about issues with placements
  • Discuss concerns about supervisory relationships
  • Explore mentor’s specialization and training
  • Interview mentor for a class assignment
  • Ask how mentor would handle a situation
  • Networking

To start using the RECAMFT Mentorship program, simply visit RECAMFT Mentorship and choose a mentor to get started. Look to see whether preferred contact is phone or email, and reach out. Supporting our RECAMFT Interns is important!!

Meet your Pre-Licensed Committee Chair,

A special welcome to all our Prelicensed members!

Brian graduated from Sonoma State University with a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, with an emphasis on Clinical Mental Health Counseling, in spring of 2014, and completed licensure as Marriage and Family Therapist in 2016. Brian currently works for the Santa Rosa Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and previously worked for a variety of agencies, including High Schools, behavioral intervention agencies, and residential treatment programs. He is certified in providing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders in children, adolescents, and adults, and conducting evidenced-based treatment protocols for obsessive-compulsive disorder, body-focused repetitive behaviors, insomnia, and Tourette's syndrome. In addition to his therapeutic work, Brian is also an adjunct professor at USF Santa Rosa Campus and Sonoma State University.

Brian has a passion for supporting the next generation of clinicians entering into the field by providing mentorship to prelicensed and newly licensed therapists. He enjoys the collaborative process of mentoring, and witnessing and fostering the energy and drive of up-and-coming therapists.
