In April, the Department of Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) in Falk College hosted its first in-person residency for master of arts online students.
The department welcomed 33 students from all over the country, and for many it was their first experience in Syracuse. The students attended workshops, learned therapeutic skills from MFT faculty and staff, and observed residential students to get a sense of the services offered at MFT’s Couple and Family Therapy Center at Peck Hall in Syracuse, near the Syracuse University campus.
During the residency, we visited with two of the online students, Stacey Martha McDonald Lowe and Ali Asad Somjee, who discuss in these videos why Syracuse University’s MFT online program was the perfect fit for them.
