I know that for some people, having to face the National MFT licensure exam can create a certain level of anxiety. It’s quite normal for exam applicants to ask questions like,” Where do I start? What should I be studying? How much time should I dedicate to prepare for the exam? Will I have enough time to complete the exam? What kinds of questions will I be asked?”, or "I have to retake the exam, can you help me?"
What makes me different from other services? I offer affordable personal one-on-one tutoring. My study plans are flexible to fit each students unique learning style. I have been tutoring since 2008 and have worked with Marriage and Family Therapists at different levels in their profession.

“Working with Elizabeth was such a wonderful experience! She gave me all the tools needed, especially great practice exams. She showed me how to pace myself, which helped me be more confidence. Standardize testing isn’t my strong suit, so when I found Elizabeth I knew it was exactly what I needed.”
Thank you again for all that you’ve done for me!

“I found Elizabeth Mackend honestly, on luck. After failing the AMFTRB exam by only TWO points I was so devastated and had no idea where to go to try and start studying again. I was going on google searching and searching different study materials for how to conquer this exam. I found Elizabeth's website and started reading some reviews on her site but none were recent so I was thinking to myself, “Aw man she probably doesn't even do tutoring anymore! I don't know what I am going to do." But I just went with my gut and I filled out the forms and sent her an email to see if she was available to do tutoring and guess what ...she WAS! I was so excited. We had a free consultation call to discuss areas of weaknesses and strengths. From there we decided how many session and what days and times. To know more you should really check her out. I just got my results back a few days ago and I passed my test! YAY!! LAMFT! I would highly recommend Elizabeth Mackend for tutoring to help you get prepared for your exam.”

"Amazing...Elizabeth worked a miracle in helping me use the little time I had to full advantage. I am so impressed with the depth of her knowledge about theories and the exam. There were no surprises when I took the exam. She didn't miss a thing. She was flexible with scheduling, in her office and over Skype and both were useful. Her study materials were concise and reduced the time I needed to study. I cannot think of a better way to prepare than with Elizabeth."

"What a wonderful experience I had with Elizabeth tutoring me for the National MFT Exam. She has a way of explaining the theories that make if possible to recall the concepts with understanding and ease. I can definitely say that I feel better prepared to take this exam after reviewing the materials with Elizabeth. I am thrilled with her patience, knowledge and ability to explain the concepts making the review process for this exam more manageable. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone needing to study for the national exam.

“You want Elizabeth if you are taking your MFT License exam. You will leave her tutoring sessions feeling as if you know the information. She will help you understand the way the test is written, what the test expects and what it will ask you. I HIGHLY recommend her!! It was the best money I spend for preparing for the exam.”

“I want to thank you for taking me deep inside MFT history and theory. I believe this is the real key to nailing down the answers and passing MFT State Exams. The fast pace way you present the material and the fun way you test material comprehension seems more like a game, a challenge. An enjoyable experience with a successful finish! Thanks again Elizabeth.”

“Elizabeth is creative; detail oriented; as well as personable coach and tutor. I was overwhelmed by the vast amount of material needed to learn for the MFT licensure exam but she made it so simple for me to understand.
