Therapist Development Center (TDC) puts the simplicity that's needed into studying for licensing exams.  After having failed the CA LCSW Vignette Exam by 1 question after having used another company's material, I was afraid that I would not be able to pass at all because I felt like there was always too much to remember.  TDC changed that by helping me focus on only the things that will show up on the test rather than feeling like I'm going through grad school all over again with all the material other company's make you review.

I PASSED!  Thank you to the TDC team for providing me with such a practical resource and guide that helped me not only pass the exam but also change my learning experience into something more meaningful and constant.  I was so overwhelmed in previous years by the amount of information that sat before me that I didn't know where to even begin.  Your program helped me to focus less on memorizing material and more on processing the information and critically thinking through appropriate clinical interventions.

I took the California LCSW Standard Written Exam yesterday, July 1st, 2013, here in San Francisco, CA. I passed the test! (my first time!). Your prep course really made the difference for me. The stucture of your prep course was very important to me. I completed the course, then reviewed everything and took the 100 question mock exams and all the quizes at least twice. Thankfully, I don't have to take that exam more than once. Now on to the California Clinical Vignette exam prep course. I truly appreciate your affordable prep courses.

I can't believed I passed!  I have taken the test a few times and kept missing by only few points.  I used all your study material the way we discussed and finally passed. I used all the strategies you recommended and felt confident going into the test.  Thanks for helping me be succesful!

I used the Therapist Development Center for both parts of my exam and passed each one the first time! I went into each exam confident and sure of my knowledge of the material.  I felt well prepared and finished both exams within plenty of time.  The methods taught for the clinical vignette portion made everything so manageable.  This program is amazing!

I just wanted to extend my thanks! Your program really gave me the right way of thinking to attack the exam! I didn't have the full eight weeks to get through the program, and so I modified it to be a condensed version, but the program really gave me the tools I needed to feel confident and PASS the exam on my first attempt! I was even recovering from Strep at the time I was registered to take the exam, and so I wasn't feeling my best, but utilized the tools that were taught and succeeded! Thank you so much for your assistance!!

I just wanted to say thank you for this brilliant set up!  Walking into my test I felt prepared and knew I had the best possible chance of passing this wretched test!!!  When I hit the end button (they really make you sweat it out) I knew what word would be there but I felt happy seeing it!!!!! Thank you for a wonderful education!!

Thank you very much for your training program.  You made the studying quite enjoyable and stress free.   I just passed the first exam and will start studying for the second.  I will purchase your study program next week and jump into studying.  Lets hope and pray that a month from now I will have successfully completed both exams.  Thanks again!

I passed my LCSW exam today first try! You all were awesome. I have to tell you before I took your study course I was so anxious; it has been 12 and a half years since I took the last one. I got my Master's degree 13 years ago. Everyone I talked to warned me how hard it was and how many people fail it on the first go round. Your pep talks and lectures made me feel confident and well informed. Taking the exam I never felt out of my depth or that you hadn't prepared me. In fact on several questions I thought, now in what order would Amanda put these in.

I just wanted to say thank you for creating a program that was organized, had direction and was very positive.  Today I passed the CA LCSW Standard Written Exam and I followed all of your tips including taking a break and imagining you were in the room with me.  This program helped me manage my anxiety and feel confident in myself as a clinician. I am excited to move forward and study for the Clinical Vignette Exam. Thank you so much Therapist Development Center!
