<p>Couple/Marriage and Family Therapists’ (C/MFT) career choice and practice are likely to be closely linked to who they are as people and what is important to them. This quantitative exploratory study investigated personal values of C/MFT trainees and the associations between those values and trainees’ burnout levels. Data came from an online study on 78 C/MFT trainees from 13 states enrolled in C/MFT graduate programs nationwide. As would be expected for helping professionals, benevolence, universalism and self-direction were the most highly endorsed values by the C/MFT trainees in the sample with power, stimulation and conformity being among the least endorsed values. The values preference also showed an expected association with age and gender. Correlational analyses showed no statistically significant associations between any value and burnout. However, correlations between the values of conformity and stimulation and burnout were approaching significance. Implications for training C/MFTs include encouraging trainees to strive for a balance between values of self-transcendence and self-enhancement and use of greater support rather than control in supervision. Future research recommendations include exploration of the relationship between therapists’ self-reported values and other aspects of training and clinical practice.</p>
