As a Marriage and Family Therapist, the majority of your work may or may not be marriage counseling. Do your research to determine what type of therapy the particular office you are applying to focuses on. If your work history didn't comprise much of marriage counseling be sure to mention this to the interviewer, the last thing you want is for the majority of your caseload to be appointments you're not accustomed to treating.
