Alumni Testimonials

“The MFT program at Wheaton College helped me map psychology onto real life, equipping me to bring wellness, meaning, and connection to families and communities at the grassroots of modern life.”
– Sanjana Karanam, Wheaton MFT, Class of 2024

"The Wheaton MFT program is all about training relational therapists. It's within relationships that we experience wounding and it's within relationships that we work out our healing!"
– Lana Gummeson, Wheaton MFT, Class of 2020

“Wheaton MFT faculty looks at, cares for, and equips the whole person; they are doing a lot more than pumping out master’s degree graduates. Even long after my program ended, I still feel a strong connection to the school, the program, and especially the faculty, who have considered me a colleague even as a newly graduated baby therapist. I am forever grateful.”
–  Sara George, Wheaton MFT, Class of 2020

"I chose the Wheaton MFT program because I wanted to be the person my family needed when I was growing up. Beyond preparing me as a systemic therapist the program helped me start identifying and breaking patterns in my own family of origin, setting my future generations for better relational health and success. The healthier I can be as a member of my own family system, the better therapist I can be to my clients."
– Angie Mapura, Wheaton MFT, Class of 2020
