I used Therapist Development Center for both the Standard Written Exam and for the Clinical Vignette Exam and I passed both on my first try! I started my study adventure with another company and I found myself being frustrated and confused with the overwhelming nature of that system.  I am SO HAPPY that I found Therapist Development Center because it uses a straightforward and no-nonsense approach to teaching the material that I needed to pass the exams...nothing more, nothing less. Also, if I ever had a question, Amanda and her team were extremely responsive.

I have used AATBS books but not the test bank, and I also used Gerry Grossman's text bank but not the material. I found the TDC more "fun" to study because of the audio. Thank you for creating such a great program. I am definately going to recommend this program to others :)

This program is amazing. I truly felt confident throughout the entire exam this time around. Thank all of you for your support and most importantly for making me believe in myself. Again, without this program I wouldn't have succeeded.

Words can't expression how grateful I am for TDC! I had originally bought AATBS/BTA and boy I felt so overwhelmed with the enormous amount of material that was given. On top of that it was so expensive. I reviewed the content in TDC about 3x times and felt so much confident in ability to pass this exam. It is because of TDC I PASSED MY EXAM! Thank you TDC!

I recently passed my LCSW exam on October 24, 2013. I thank God and the Therapist Development Center. I had an excellent coach, Mrs. Bethany Vanderbilt, who made everything seem easy. Bethany was patient and encouraged me to continue pursuing my goal of passing the LCSW. I am going to tell everyone I know about the Therapist Development Center. I AM SOOO SOOO HAPPY!

I want to thank TDC so much for this program.  I was skeptical that I really could be ready to take my exam in 2 months, but I really was.  I had bought other testing materials prior and felt so confused and lost.  I didn't know what I needed to focus on.  I was super nervous the day of the exam and kept remembering the pep talk and reminding myself that I was taking the test and it was not taking me and reframed it for myself to have power over the test rather than the other way around.

Thanks to TDC I passed the LCSW Clinical Vignette exam on 10/23/13. I am so thankful to TDC for the great study materials and style of teaching. I am so happy that I am now an LCSW. I couldn't have done it without your support, TDC!!

After seven failed attempts, sometimes just points away, I passed today.  I am indebted to Amanda and her team.  I was about to get fired over this.  The key benefits your preparation offers is keeping the material manageable, learning to focus on what is important and most of all, the tips.  I followed every tip from beginning to end on sleeping well, eating before exam and taking at least two breaks.  I also liked the pep talk at the end.  It was very helpful. Thank you all.  This meant a great deal to me.

The test was very difficult in the sense that often i did not know what they were looking for in the questions and used what I learned in this program and made my best guess.  Thank god I passed!   I did not like the vibe of the other study systems....What I liked about this study system was that it helped me to focus my time and prioritize the information, all encouraging me to be a better therapist....not JUST pass the test. Thanks TDC for creating this system!! I will totally tell my friends!

I would highly recommend this program over any other program out there. I personally had originally purchased another program but I didn't even use it to study for this exam as I found it confusing and really anxiety provoking. This program was awesome and I went in to take the exam feeling very confident after I studied with this program.
