Before using TDC I used Gerry Grossman. I unfortunately failed twice. I felt with Gerry it was too much material since it gave me two big books, a stack of flash cards, audio material, charts, and bullet point of each topic. With all these materials I was so overwhelmed and confused that I didn't know where to start.
Their practice test I didn't feel it was helpful because they test you 5 times of each topics and and their questions are repeated so I memorized their question and answer which didn't help and it didn't prepare for the test. I heard about TDC from a dear friend of mine who highly recommended it. After failing test I thought it won't hurt to try it. I was so glad that I did!
TDC study material was so clear cut, straight to the point and Amanda's rational to the question was so helpful I loved how she would give you helpful tips for the test, how to understand the question that the test are asking, and how to look out for the tricks. I also love how Amanda is so encouraging and motivating you through the entire time. I especially loved that for the practice test you can only take it twice, it made trained myself to really learn the material versus memorizing the answer. Once I took the practice the audio rational was awsome it really help see where I was still lacking and I needed to focus the most. Once I had to take the actual clinical test I was prepare and confident. I just keep remembering what Amanda would say during the audio material which help me to pick the correct answer.
Thank you TDC you are awesome, Side note having to study with two toddler was not easy but TDC you made this material so clear that even with two small toddler I was able to understand and comprehend what I studying. Again THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Mtz 80 82 manual. I know TDC was the reason I was able to pass the licensing exam on the first attempt. Amanda really helped me be able to understand how to go into the test, understand what the question was asking, and be able to knock out wrong answers.
The exam was still challenging but with the program I felt like I had a shot at passing. The practice exams and rationale lectures were probably the most helpful part but I know I was able to do well on those exams because of all the audio lectures and understanding how to take the exam. I am so thankful for TDC and so happy I don’t have to take the exam a 2nd time. Thank you so much!!!
Even though I passed the test on my second attempt, I felt TDC had my back. I got all the extensions I needed until I felt ready to face the test. I listened over and over again to Amanda's lectures and I certainly brought her to the test with me.
I heard her voice in my head as I read the vignettes and ruled out the ones that were bogus. I used all the suggestions, strategies, and even though I was afraid to waste time on the break (I ran out of time on the first attempt), I trusted the system, and I made it.
I had all the information I needed. I didn't feel overwhelmed by having to read volumes of data that was not necessary.
I did that in school. Amanda and TDC gave me the right tools and strategies I needed to feel confident and conquer the beast. Thank you, TDC! TDC exam materials assisted me to study effectively enough to pass the first time in spite of working full time, caregiving my mother through hospice and the load of grief that followed. I don't recommend doing anything but studying and working full time, but because of the focus TDC provided, I was able to focus and enough to get through and pass in spite of grief brain.
And, just as with the Law and Ethics exam, going through this intense studying improved my clinical approach, focus and practice. I’d moved my residence, my office, gotten sick at a couple of points, had an unacceptably low final mock and had to go back and repeat TDC’s paradigm breaking curriculum, and I just didn’t know how anything was going to turn out. I was so nervous! At every turn, when I needed an extension, TDC support was there for me, including when I needed support deciding whether or not to “wing it” after one time through the curriculum or go back into review mode, TDC was there to help. Well worth the money and leaving the competition in the dust - thank you TDC! Twenty years ago, I received my degree as a school based family counselor.
I tried to complete my 3,000 hours, but my pathway towards licensure took a detour, when I made the decision to raise my four children instead. I allowed 1,000 of my hours to expire. It was 15 years later that I started on the pathway again towards licensure. By then, new requirements had been added to the licensing process. At times, I was discouraged and wanted to change my career goals, but I fortunately persevered. And after six years of internships at three different sites with four different supervisors; and after seeing countless clients-each of whom I own much appreciation to, as they each had a part in my training-I took my test today and I PASSED! As I walked out of the testing center, II shed a few tears from relief and from having been on such a long, long journey towards licensure.
TDC, thank you so much for your help in preparing me for this exam. I'm glad you were a part of my journey. This program came highly recommended by a colleague. I had used previous materials in the past and found them very overwhelming and I didn't feel they prepared me. This program was completely different. TDC was highly structured, concrete and succinct.
Not only did it teach skills clearly but it also prepared me emotionally. The reference material was clear and easy to understand. The audio reinforced the program and helped conceptualize the material. I actually enjoyed preparing and feel more confident in my work with clients. I believe this program was invaluable to my success in taking my exam and will be reference tool in my practice.
I had a lot riding on passing my exam and I am grateful to TDC for helping me achieve an monumental milestone in my career. Thank you so much Amanda!
I am happy to share with you that I finally passed the Clinical Exam and thank you for such a great course! Amanda, you were really in the room with me as well as Asya! Many courses offer good content materials but TDC is more than that. Well organized and focused on strategies and this exam is all about a mental and physical challenge.
I requested a coaching session with Asya a week before the exam and it was totally worth it, she gave me wonderful feedback on how I needed to approach the exam. I passed!!!!! I just want to thank you TDC for comprehensive study content and study timeline suggestions. I created a timeline, built momentum in my study and stuck to the timeline. I felt ready to take the exam. There were so many instances during the exam when I felt like the questions were familiar to common questions tested in TDC mock exams.

While many answers on the actual exam were very confusing - the TDC tools in ruling out, putting things in order, looking for comprehensive answers gave me the ability to feel competent while nervous!! I will highly recommend this program to fellow interns nearing their readiness to study for this exam. What a relief!
Passing the first time feels great! The TDC was extremely instrumental in helping me pass both the Law & Ethics exam and the Clinical Exam. The structured and direct approach of the study guide was exactly what I needed. I greatly appreciate the value the TDC places on individual learning and support outside of the provided study guide. One week before my clinical exam, I continued to struggle with the theories and it greatly affected my confidence. However, after emailing my concerns, I received incredible feedback on my own learning style, studying tips, and reassurance. I'm absolutely grateful for the feedback provided by the coaches- I was contemplating re-scheduling my exam prior to receiving this feedback.
On the day of my clinical exam, I confidently ate my piece of fruit before I walked in and made sure to 'take Amanda with me.' To everyone at the TDC, thank you!! I found the TDC CA MFT clinical exam study program to be perfect for preparing me for this test. The topics of study were clearly laid out in the quick studies and the lectures were clear and well organized. While taking the exam, I thought at least twice, 'I wouldn't have known the answer to this specific question without TDC'. Amanda's voice went into the test room with me.
Her guidance in learning how to understand what the question stem is specifically asking me to answer was invaluable. I felt that the TDC mock exams were very similar to the CCE and an excellent tool to prepare me for 'showtime'. Thank you TDC!
