I came to TDC after completing another LCSW prep course that had been recommended to me by several individuals; I was sure it was the answer for me and unfortunately it was not. I took my exam for the first time back in November and failed by 6 points; I was completely devastated. I reached out to the person that taught the course and was offered very generic follow-up recommendations. I had heard about TDC several times before but was only 4 weeks out from my next test day and was leary to begin a completely new program that close. I had prayed and prayed that God would guide my study efforts and He did just that; He led me to a fellow MSW classmate and friend who ultimately led me to TDC and assured me that I had adequate time to complete the program and that I would NOT be disappointed. She was absolutely correct! I completed the program in its entirety in just 3.5 weeks; I essentially lived and breathed TDC for those 3.5 weeks! BUT, it all paid off! I took the exam on April 1, 2021 and PASSED! I needed 102 correct to pass and got 120 correct! I blew my first test out of the water and walked out with my head held high, with tears of joy rolling down my cheeks! If you are at all contemplating this program, STOP thinking about it and just buy it! I promise you it is worth it and it WILL help you be successful! The program is so thorough and covers anything and everything that could be on the exam. I also greatly appreciated the feedback from Heidi and her quick, personalized responses to me, even on the weekends!
Thank you TDC for creating such a wonderful program and helping so many of us tackle the beast that is the LCSW exam! I am forever grateful that God led me to all of you!

TDC was instrumental in helping grasp the rationales for the clinical exam. I pass both the law and ethics exam and the clinical LCSW exam through preparation with TDC. I pass my clinical exam for the LCSW the first time. I liked how TDC covered main topics in preparation of the LSCW clinical exam. I completed all quizzes and all Mock tests before I took my LCSW Clinical Exam. I felt TDC gave me the confidence to approach the exam. I really loved the Final Pep Talk, I listened to it the day of my exam for both exams (L&E) and the clinical and hearing the advice prepared me for both days. Because of TDC, I was successful in passing both exams. Listening to the Final Pep talk the day of my LCSW clinical exam, I found myself crying listening to it. I had faith and confidence I was going to make it through the experience of the exam. What an experience! Thank you THERAPIST DEVELOPMENT CENTER!!!!

I am super thankful to TDC for this program and for what you do for Veterans! I am never confident in my own abilities but I took the practice test and did well so I decided to go ahead and take my test. I had already changed my date twice due to not feeling ready- I wasn't putting time into studying like I should have. First time taking the exam and in less than 2 hours! Passed by 7 points but a pass is a pass!

I have been studying for a few months. I felt confident and prepared for my exam. Thank you Therapist development center, I passed my clinical examination on my first attempt.

First time passing my exam. These materials were fantastic! The lectures helped me learn the material in an easy way that fit in my busy life with two little kids!

I felt terrified, but prepared going in to take the LCSW exam. I used other sources to a small degree, but primarily counted on the therapist development network to help me study. I was well prepared and I did well on the exam. Thank you!

Taking the test second time I was nervous but it felt really important to know that TDC coaches were with me till the end, and didn't give up on me.

I cried tears of Joy because I didnt think I was going to pass after taking the test 4 times and running out of time the last time I took it trying to use acronyms. I was skeptical about using this program because I had spent so much money on other materials I believe this program built on the knowledge that I had received from other programs. I'm glad I did use this program. Feeling greatful and blessed.

The portion of this program that was most beneficial for me were the practice exams. A different program that I used previous had limited questions and not set up like the actual LCSW exam.

The ASWB Clinical study system was the best thing I could have bought to prep for my exam! I passed on my first attempt, and while I was nervous going into it, I truly felt prepared. I tried using another test prep book before I found TDC and as soon as I purchased TDC I never went back to that book. The structure of TDC was helpful to keep me on track to finish all of the material before the exam date. I really enjoyed the audio component and listened to all of them multiple times. I printed a few copies of the worksheets so I could fill them out while listening to the audio and again as a quiz for myself. The most helpful aspect was how they review breaking down the questions. Memorizing all of the information needed for the exam is unrealistic, so knowing the tips to break down the question and come to an answer even if you don't have experience in that particular type of social work was key. I had very few recall questions on my exam, and every time I saw FIRST, NEXT, or BEST on my exam, I could confidently eliminate a few choices and identify the correct answer from there. TDC was worth every penny, if you are on the fence about this program just do it. You will not regret it!
