When i took the exam the first time, I had graduated from the counseling 20 years prior, completed 1 1-2 internships, and recently completed a PhD. program. Much had changed and I needed to catch up. TDC assisted me to fulfill this endeavor. Asya Mourraille was an amazing tutor. When she was working with me, I could throw out a topic and she would come back immediately to inform me of multiple items for me to know before going on to the next topic. I tried several prep courses. She not only informedme of the topic, but taught me HOW to take the test. All programs had something to offer, but TDC offered me the total package that I needed to pass the exam. And, I did it!!!!
The test is evil. TDC makes it passable. Thanks !
I am so excited that I pass my exam. I’m officially a LMFT! God is so good and the glory is all His! For those of you guys who have been studying for a while, and can’t pass that exam, don’t give up!! It took me many times to pass. After each failure, I would do some self-care. Then I would get back up and start studying again. Each time I studied my heart out. However, after each failure, I would learn something new about the test and about myself. TDC has been with me since day one! I’ve used other programs and nothing compared to TDC! Thank you TDC for all your support and patience with me!
I studied for 4 weeks just to make sure I knew everything. I passed easily. The questions on the test were like the practice questions for TDC. TDC is awesome!
This program really helped me! I had a few issues with having to reschedule my test and they helped extend my program as well. The material is very clear and really prepared me for the licensing exam. I would definitely recommend this program. I have used TDC law and ethics program as well and passed the first time around too!
I was worried when taking the mock exams because I wasn't scoring very well on them, but they definitely prepared me for the actual test. All of the quick studies and lectures were very helpful and easy to follow.
Highly recommend TDC's study prep! I felt totally prepared and passed the exam with ease (and 40 minutes early!) I tried one other study program before and TDC is far superior. Don't waste your time or money anywhere else. This program will give you exactly what you need to pass this test!
TDC not only solidified my knowledge base, it taught me how to think for the test. By the end of preparing, I was dreaming about multiple choice exams and applying strategies Amanda reviews to knock out wrong answers. I was thinking in test strategy terms the days prior to the test! It felt like being immersed in the test world and becoming fluent. I felt more than adequately prepared for the test by TDC. Even more valuable, I felt like I became a better clinician with the comprehensive review and enhanced critical thinking skills! When I approached the program knowing I could get more out of it than trying to just pass, I really got into the studying and enjoyed the material.
I took the MFT Clinical Exam on April 1, 2022. Passed with ease, with about 15 minutes to spare, even though I took a 5 minute bio, juice, fruit break after I finished question 90. I was running ahead of schedule, per the time guidelines I wrote on my white board.
The actual examination was a joy to engage with. I felt well prepared by TDC and believe that all the mock examinations (3 mocks + 2 final mocks) which were very helpful, were by *far* tougher that the real exam. All other materials were on point and helped meaningfully prepare me for this examination. My special thanks, as always, to Robin Gluck, for her calm voice of reason and encouragement. You rock, Robin!
I truly believe that engaging with all the preparation materials in a systematic and organized way, in addition to having good clinical experiences (client work [1:1 and group therapy], clinical case consultation, and excellent supervision) makes the difference. This exam was nothing more than a capstone for all the clinical experiences many of you have already had. You can and will slay this beast - and you will do so joyfully, as I did.
Approach the exam as an excellent clinician would work with a client. Having a curious, joyful, and positive mindset will help you cruise to victory.
Good wishes to you all as you write your own narrative for Clinical Exam success - and beyond!
The Therapist Development Center course for the CA Law and Ethics exam was spectacular. The design was intuitive and well organized. The material covered was spot-on relevant. I felt calm and (relatively) confident walking into the exam this morning, and I walked out with a PASS!
The first exam I failed was after waiting 18 months between studying and taking the exam. It was because the testing centers had been closed. I did some cursory re-studying, which was my big mistake. It no longer matters though...I took your course (just as recommended!) and passed. Thank you!
