About MFT Study Buddy
Why this exists
Hi, I'm Kaela and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in the beautiful state of Utah. I earned my Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy at Northwestern University. When I started preparing for the national exam, I kept running into the same problem: almost every study option was hundreds of dollars, locked behind a subscription, or short on quality questions.
Therapists have to pass this exam to move forward in their careers, and too much of the test prep market profits from that. It felt exploitative to me. MFT Study Buddy is my answer: a cost-effective, evidence-based alternative.
I built this site to bring every study tool I wanted into one place. It was my first “vibe-coded” project, built with Claude Code, so it was also a fun way to learn something new. Even so, quality and accuracy matter most to me. Every question is reviewed and approved by me or another MFT before it appears in the question bank. Every answer comes with an explanation, the content follows the current exam blueprint, and each item cites the sources behind it, which you can check on the References page.
If anything seems off, I’d love to hear from you. This site has been a true passion project, and I’m grateful you’ve chosen MFT Study Buddy as a partner in preparing for this exam.

AI disclosure
Last updated November 9, 2026
This site was built with Claude Code, an AI tool from Anthropic. AI also helped draft and check study content, including practice questions, study guides, flashcards, and games.
Practice questions are reviewed and approved by me or another MFT before they appear. Other study materials are checked against sources and corrected as they're used, so errors may remain. If something looks wrong, please let me know.
The site doesn't send your account information or study progress to an AI tool. Your insights are calculated by fixed rules from your own practice results.
