That ending was perfect. And I'll second (er... third... fourth... nth..) that a Spike episode would be great. "Doctor, sometimes it seems like life is going out of its way to pick on me." "It is, Spike."
Yay! It's out! Was a pleasure to voice in this and it came out so wonderfully! The artwork is so, so beautiful and DRWolf delivered such a great message to everyone. Thank you so much for casting me and I look forward to working with you again! ^^
love the credits song. and the fact that you had both you and twilight say "it's good to be helping" at the same time. great job on this one, Dr. Wolf.
I have a story to share but would rather send it in a PM instead hehe! But I loved this therapy session, voice acting was awesome, well done Itsannachloem! Lovely artwork once again by Starbat ^^ and of course Doc nicely done! *Sighs* just another reason why I relate to Twilight so much, I know the obessive drive for things all too well hehe.
This video is a fascinating insight onto Twilight's mindset that bring a better light on her actions. In addition, I can say that I consider this canon. Dr. Wolf, you have a gift in bringing about the good out of the characters and I hope one day that you would bring your attention on the other characters of the FIM verse and bring your own kind advice to them.
This session did very well in showing how therapy sessions are meant to provide insight while the real work is actually done outside of the therapist's office. So many people forget how a therapist is a "Guide". They cannot make the change. Rather, you must be able to feel comfortable enough with the therapist to develop a "Professional Friendship" that keeps you open to their insight. This insight can then be applied after the session to discover what works and what does not towards making you a better you.And, like Dr. Wolf, much of what I've learned to do "Coping with Limitations Through Pony" came from what I learned in helping others. It truly is amazing how therapy can be a two-way street.Keep up the great work, Dr. Wolf. I will never be able to express enough how much you've helped me to better myself. Thanks for helping me cope with my own struggles through MLP. :)
I love how the background has so much eye candy from the books on the shelves, to the paintings on the walls, to even the stuffed animals starbat you rock and Dr. Wolf you are awesome! I hope you do more therapy sessions with other characters like the princesses, Discord, Sombra, Chrysalis, and others. Thanks again this was worth the wait.
This video was amazing, Doctor Wolf! Probably the best one yet. It's amazing to see how far both you and Twilight have come. Sometimes all you need is a good friend who can listen and to rely on others rather than yourself.
When it's closing up to Twilights Face and seeing Princess Celestia's pic behind her, it feels like Princess Celestia is actually Standing right behind her and possibly talk or laugh at any moment! But it didn't.
This video was really well done, and that message at the end hit home. It helped me remember how lucky I am to have all the friends in my life. Thank you, so much, Dr. Wolf. You truly are a talented individual.
Wow, an amazing video. Not only was it packed full with little easter eggs, like Discords shadow and all those book titles, both with real equivalents like Human Farm but also character callbacks like Princess Luna's Thousand Years of Isolation. (Btw, I hope you did have a good time management and weren't to overworked, Starbat. This animation looks so amazing and beautiful, you did a wonderful job!) This video also lets the AMWDW series come full circle, discussing the therapy sessions of the other Mane Six and how Dr Wolf grew with the experience. All in all, a great video, thank you for all the work and efford everyone involved put into it!
All those background gags. Big props to the illustrator/animator for their work on this. Also: T~T that ending music reminds me very much of Aftermath of a Fallen Star.
OMG THIS IS BOMBASTICALLY FANTASTIC! The art style and the details in it, the whole premise of a "flashback session", the voice acting and deep dialogue, everything was AMAZING.
I'm glad you were able to help my favorite pony Twilight Sparkle with the problems she been having and if she still upset or worried about what's troubling her I'll always be there for her but anyway keep up the great work, Doc. 😉
i love the small details in the drawings. like in the flashback. The shadow of discord which curls around the lamp. and in the present, the book "Human farm"... Seriously? XD and the golden scepter haha. Just love it
I love these therapy videos...they're so cool to watch and they show great ways of living a good life, and trying to stay away from stress and run away emotions...which I'm now dealing with to a day to day bases. It's amazing how incredibly explained these lessons with stress are spoken out, and how they could be solved. Certainly a well made series.
I've loved just about every single one of these AMWDW videos, I appreciate what you've been putting out there in these for not only our beloved "fictional" pony characters, but also for the fans and their own very real lives as well, but I must ask Dr. Wolf, how do you manage to come across the time of which to produce these, especially factoring into consideration as frequently as you do? I'm imagining that with all the work that would have to go into each individual video, such as the different art styles in which they've been made in each time. (I'm guessing created usually by the other party being that it's a unique style with almost each video) all that alone I would imagine would take a considerable amount of time, yet also then there is the recording and the, sometimes more minimal than others, animation work for the characters and, occasionally the scenery as well. :P In continuance with my question, I'd like to just remark, I find it interesting and quite a bit inspiring actually, especially when I use my own life as a personal precedent, as to how you find such time to manage both holding a demanding career such as accounting, and producing content such as these and other collab projects, while also then factoring in time for other general life things. I'd love to share more thoughts here, but I'm also trying my best to keep this brief as well so as to not cause too much time spent reading this. I love your channel and all you've done for the brony fandom, and I hope you've a great day. ^^
Thank you kindly for the encouraging words Nick. I have been working a full time career on weekdays, and still manage about 20+ hours every week producing videos and setting up collaborations. It's certainly difficult, but becomes easier over time.
Been waiting for this for a while. Brilliant job Doc and Anna. Brilliant job representing my favorite character in the entire show. Like and already subscribed.
I simply do not find these videos of yours entertaining anymore, thank you very much for all the videos you've made over the years. But just because I don't find these videos entertaining, doesn't mean I don't appreciate you're work, keep being absolutely awesome, Allons-Y.
Yet another fine piece of hard work and a lesson to be learned to help those in life and in others things : ) thank you again DrWolf for everything you do to help us
This was lovely to listen to, especially the part where you recounted the lessons from previous moments with the Mane Six. That part really struck a chord with me when I realized how much they reflected aspects of my own life. Thanks for sharing this with us. Hope you have a lovely day. ^_^
Wonder if Twily will recommend Dr.Wolf to Celestia, Luna and Cadence? As the mother of a newborn alicorn baby. I know his words can help Cadence a lot. Not to mention all the sympathetic insighted he could provide for the two sisters, Tia and Luna; in regards to their relationship
And it's finally here. Twilight is the pony with perhaps the most issues. Kind of wish this touched on her lack of initiative, but dealing with her obsessive and compulsive nature (and how it is not entirely a bad thing) was also something important to address. Really, you could do a whole series of these on Twilight. And Starbat's artwork is awesome as always. I know Starlight Glimmer is next, but would you ever consider doing G1 ponies? They certainly have foibles that could warrant a moment.
That was terrific!! I wish I could give this video two thumbs up! Great job as always to all the people involved in making A Visit With Dr.Wolf possible! Also to VA who did Twilight I say "Are you a long lost sister to Tara Strong?" Seriously you sound almost excactly like her version of Twilight! Here's looking forward to Starlight Glimmer's Therapy visit. :-)
+Jacob Carpenter I know what you mean. A lot fans get angry when Twilight still has her anxiety attacks, or when she won't stop pursing something that is socially acceptable. In my opinion though it shows how "human" she is. She still has struggles and bad habits she still has to work on even though she has matured a lot since the last six seasons, and that makes her a relatable character. We can't have her be picture perfect character now that she is a princess, as a matter of fact it it works out for her character growth taking on the responablity of becoming a wise leader like Celestia. Because it shows that even the people who are charge don't always know what to do, and look to those who are close to them to help them in their time of uncertainty. You know what mean?
cant stop smiling, love how we get to see just how much she has changed with that cut back to her first visit. And of course there is a starlight plushie with button eyes under the chair in the background. Sunset shimmer and fluttershy to in the book case /)^w^(\ . i also swear that Celestia picture was staring right into my soul the whole time... oh and that ending..i hope this means we may see the good Dr. outside of his office. written while i watched was just that good
I've been waiting ages to see this, and it didn't disappoint. Anna Chloe M did a fantastic job as Twilight Sparkle and your own words and wisdom came out as soothing, calm, and nurturing as always. These just seem to keep getting better and better over time. It almost makes me wish that Hasbro would approach you for an official role in the My Little Pony Friendship is Magic universe. ~ Sincerely Moonshadow Mystery
Great video Doc and love how the video was animated and I know how Twilight feels when it comes to stress I also like that you mention Amending Fences and Lesson Zero two of my all time favorite episodes. If it's ok with you Doc I might have an idea for a moment with Dr.Wolf maybe in the Equestira Girls world there would be a Dr.Wolf giving Sunset Shimmer a AMWDW talking about her past and how she is always reminded of it. Just a little suggestion if you are ok with it.
very impressive as always doctor wolf, I have been neglecting watch in your videos but after you once again having proved you are one of the wisest people on this planet I will quickly fix that. Keep up the good work Doctor and if possible I would one love to one day shake your hand, if not then just getting to talk to you about stuff would be just as fine. And doctor? Never forget that people love you, care for you, and admit you, and will always be there for you. Ok? I know I will always be here to watch your videos like so many others.
I have trouble with anxiety with protecting everyone the I love. Getting help and watching this definitely opened my eyes for a positive change. You are the reason I want to be a family councilor when I get into college. Thank you, Dr. Wolf, for opening my eyes and letting me see what I love to do the most. Helping anyone that I love or dislike. You have changed me so much and for that, I would love to do a collab in the near future. I just have to ask my parents first 😉. Thank you again for everything and tell Mrs. Wolf I said hello.
That was wonderful. They keep getting better and better... but it looks like the series might be complete. Thanks for making! Love the quote at the end, BTW.
Well done. You wouldn't think watching a therapy session would be entertaining but you pull it off. After you d a meeting with Starlight do you intend to do meetings with other characters or do new video's with the mane six again?
Wow, I feel like a chapter has closed with all six therapy visits now finished. But when one chapter ends, a new one begins, right? These have been truly wonderful, and I loved how they came full circle with this one.
Excellent! Now that you've done all the Mane 6 and the CMC, could you please do Spike next? Probably should wait until after the next few episodes though as there is at least one more interesting Spike episode involving a changeling that might factor into a session with him. Any idea who you'll consider to be his VA?
You know what, there are two ponies that I think culd use your help, Doc. Everyday they both struggle to keep everything around them in order, one of them also is in need of how to make her public image look better to other ponies. After all, who would need a helping hoof/paw in their troubles than royalty?
