I went through this program two times. I think everyone should go through this two times to prepare for the test. Doing Mock exams at the same time of the actual test helped me, too since my testing time was towards the late afternoon-evening. It prepared my brain how I would feel sitting 4 hours in the testing room! The actual test was easier than Mocks and I ended up to have 20 minutes left when I finished all questions. Of course I took a break and ate snacks, in the middle. Thank you Amanda for coming with me in the exam room!!

Thank you so much for this helpful program and for the support I received from the coach.

TDC prepared me to such an extent that the final exam was a lot easier than the final practice tests I did. I would much rather be over-prepared than under-prepared. Thanks TDC!

I passed my exam on the first try using only TDC materials. As a new mom and a full time employee, it was very convenient to access these resources on my own schedule. Would highly recommend!

This program not only prepares you to take and pass the exam but at the end of the day it makes you a more detailed therapist. I have been working 50 clients a week the past few years since the Camp Fire here in Northern California so my experience is high but I also know I have so much more to grow! Thank you ladies for pushing me to the next step of my career!

"Chance favors the prepared mind" according to the famous chemist, Louis Pasteur. I can honestly say that I went into this exam feeling that my mind was prepared - thanks to TDC! Not only did I feel confident and prepared, I believe I am a better therapist. I learned so much from Amanda and her team. Several years ago I failed the "oral" exam twice. It was devastating. We then moved out of state for over six years where I worked in higher education. Upon return to California in 2017 I was determined to get my license and pass that exam. Sadly, I learned my 3000 hours had timed out and began process of acquiring another 3000 supervised hours - which I did. After my hours were approved early this year, I immediately purchased the TDC clinical LMFT study prep course since TDC well prepared me for the Law & Ethics where I passed first time. I heard so many people talk about how great the TDC program is. I actually enjoyed studying for the exam using the TDC materials. They are personal and provide exceptional skills on how to reason, how to think, how to rule out the wrong answers. I grew tremendously in my knowledge, skill, & judgement as a result of this program. I can't imagine using another program. Amanda is gifted and called for this - her voice is easy to listen to and she is articulate. During the exam, I definitely leaned into her words when I got stuck. I also want to say that taking the actual exam was somewhat easier than the last two final mock exams. TDC more than prepares you and totally sets a person up for success. I am overjoyed to have passed and fulfilled my lifelong dream of being a Licensed MFT! I can't thank Amanda and her team enough for this life changing resource.

TDC was the reason I passed my clinical exam. They OVER prepare you, which by far the best thing you could walk into the test with, lots of knowledge. When I sat down to take the test I was amazed how well the program mimicked the exam. I knew how to read question stems properly and knew what to look for in the answer set. I was hesitant to spend so much money, but let me tell you...it was worth every penny!!! Thank you TDC for you support and guidance. I'm officially a LMFT. Woo!

I PASSED on my 4th attempt!!! It has been a very long journey for me. I loved TDC because it was so clear and concise...all the information is there that you need, and nothing that you don't. Robin was especially prompt and helpful in our e-mail correspondence as it grew closer to Exam Day. The BIGGEST thing I can say that helped me is learning to trust myself, know that I was in control and NOT the Exam and NOT my anxiety. This was HUGE for me. I am so grateful for the support of TDC all the way to the finish line!!

This is the BEST course to prepare you for your exam! Every step of the way TDC builds up your reasoning skills and provides you with explanations on how to think throughout your test. This "how to think" is paramount to your success. After you learn all the material, which is wonderfully organized for you, you begin to test your ability to cope with the thought, "am I getting these right?" TDC will guide you through this and answer all the questions you have to PASS with Confidence!

I am so thoroughly pleased w/ my experience w/ TDC and truly believe I would not have passed the test if I had not chosen this program. The best strategy is to over-prepare the student which is exactly what TDC did for me. I was actually very frustrated with my scores in the mock exams, but now know that it was teaching me to identify my areas of weakness. For me, I personally felt I needed to take an extended period of time to study and digest the material, and to start "thinking" like Amanda. There was no way I would have passed this exam w/ just studying for a few months simply because there are so many topics and concepts to fully grasp and understand - and not just merely memorize. I literally listened to the audio countless amounts of times and re-took the quizzes as much as possible. I studied for this exam during my entire pregnancy and maternity leave while caring for my newborn. Asya was very helpful in her responses to my questions and apologize for not having the time to respond. Her emails were not only helpful, but also very encouraging and gave me hope during the process. One thing I would suggest is possibly adding a separate audio or document solely on the topic of time management, particularly emphasizing the "just keep swimming" approach while taking the mock exams. All in all, I highly recommend this study course and wanted to take the time to submit a thoughtful testimonial of my positive experience w/ TDC.
