MFT Exam Prep Reviews
As a therapist with a full-time job, and also a life, this program was so well-suited to my needs! Going into the exam, I felt I had the knowledge base I needed. While taking the exam, having Amanda's voice in my head reminding me that almost no one has a felt sense that they're passing as they answer the questions helped motivate me to keep "attacking the test." Thanks TDC, now on to that pesky CV exam...
Both exams were very difficult. But, I felt ready and confident going in with knowledge and test taking strategies from TDC. I did everything Amanda suggested from eating good meals and snacks, exercising regularly to warming up my brain with frames right before the exam. I am so grateful to the program and my friend who recommended TDC!
This was the only program that madesense to me as a *therapist.* All those phrases we hear in graduate school and supervision: "Don't ignore process for content," "Empathy is the cornerstone," I didn't sense any of that when I faced the testing process. I realized I needed to feel I had someone (or something) in a relationship with me because my own relationship to this test was so disconnected, resentful, and anxious. From the research I did, it became evident to me that Amanda's company came from a place of empathy, respect, and understanding of the intern experience. As I worked my way through the program (and my anxiety), I realized I was gaining confidence in my own process. The coaches are responsive and timely with questions. The philosophy and structure of the program keeps the study content and process contained, focused, and positive. Amanda's background in learning theory and psychology come through in the way she organizes the program. The last time I took a standardized test was the SAT many years ago, and I work in education, so I especially appreciate this. The program is realistic, teaches critical thinking, and allows for individual exploration. Not only did I pass the test, I learned something about myself. I know that isn't everyone's goal, but in my case, it was a therapeutic bonus.
I have tried other testbanks and also attended the workshops and by far this program was the best in alleviating my anxiety and helping me with getting the critical info needed in order to pass for both tests! Thank you for providing such an invaluable service and helping me to accomplish my goal of being licensed MFT:)
I'm so incredibly grateful that this program exists. TDC's system is neuroscience informed, it streamlines information, and delivers practical, applicable skills for test day. Her appraoch is truly strength based and leaves you feeling empowered and confident as opposed to much of the other test prep companies out there which pray on your anxiety and flood you with unneccesary rules and dogma. TDC's system is clear, compassionate, and emphasizes self care. I passed both exams on the first try using them. I cant sing their praises enough.
