MFT Exam Prep Reviews

I took and passed the SWE exam this morning (10/1) after using TDC.  In the middle of my studying I began to panic after I listened to my friends that were using other study materials and I ended up buying the test banks from another company.  To be honest with you, I now realize that was a waste of money. It did nothing but increase my anxiety so I stopped using them and went back to TDC full time.  During the test, what I recalled were the lectures and rationales from TDC.  I am so grateful for this program.  It simplified the process and helped me manage the overwhelming stress.  I heard Amanda's' voice saying, "tolerate the uncertainty" as I answered each exam question, which stopped all of my negative thoughts that I was not going to pass.  I would recommend this program to everyone.

I passed both of my exams using the study system designed by the Therapist Development Center.  I did not use other test prep companies after hearing from many of my friends that they had not passed their exams the first time they took them.  The system is excellent and my confidence going into the Clinical Vignette exam was very high. In fact, I felt so prepared that I pulled my test exam date in based on how well I was scoring on the mock vignettes.  I would recommend this system to anyone who only wants to go through this process ONCE.  Great strategies, concise information, excellent preparation, and access to coaches has made all the difference in my passing these exams.  I can't thank you enough for developing these programs!!

Three things I loved about this program:

1. It is organized- The information is exactly what you need to know to pass and the way it is presented makes sense. The study plan is easy to follow and keeps you on track. Other people I know who have tried other programs get an overwhelming amount of information to study and they never know where tostart.

2. You get immediate feedback- If you have a question or concern, you follow the quick and easy steps to contact the company. I have always received a response within a few hours...even on the weekends. If you need to talk with someone sooner than that, there is a number you can call. A very friendly and encouraging person is always on the other end.

3. It is positive- Like counseling, the program draws out your strengths and encourages self-determination. They remind you that you already know this information, that you will pass, and they will be with you each step of the way. Every response I got from them (whether by email or phone) was from an encouraging individual who reminded me that, "I got this". Thank you Therapist Development Center for all the support I felt throughout this process. I have been, and will continue to recommend this program to all the interns I know!!

TDC provided the study materials in such a clear and concise way. This study format and breakdown is exactly what I needed and how I learn best. The sections were broken down into small 1-1.5 hr intervals, which took a lot of the pressure off and made the program digestible. Amanda spoke clear and confidently and her attitude and voice came with me to the test. I do not have anything bad to say about this program. I felt confident after going through the material one time and reviewing things on my own.  When I first considered TDC over other study materials, I spoke to Amanda who knew exactly what I was looking for; she said all of the right things and proved to be more than just a great sales person. When I emailed TDC (frustrated and anxious) Asya (the coach) emailed me back almost immediately and said all of the right things. I felt supported without ever meeting anyone face to face. THEY GET IT!
