I took my LCSW on 21st December and I passed. I believe that what made a difference was listening to the audio recordings as they are very specific and thorough. Thank you TDC :)

After taking the LCSW several times and failing it each time, I was becoming anxious, depressed and super nervous to take it again. Each time I took the exam, the process and test itself seemed to be harder and more stressful. Once I committed to the Therapist Development Center study plan, I started seeing studying for the test as a "learning opportunity" and that really changed my outlook. With the study plan and Amy Cuddy's "power pose" practice, I went into this test on the 28th with a different energy. I needed 103 to pass and I got 111! Not the best grade I have ever gotten but I WAS SO HAPPY TO PASS! Thank you TDC and Heidi especially who was able to do a one on one session with me a couple of weeks ago. I am so grateful that your program exists!

I truly appreciate TDC I graduated with my MSW in 2004 and struggled with test taking since elementary school. What helped me was the materials and how it was broken down I also appreciated the pep talk as well. I would recommend this program to others. Thank you!!!!!

This course was soo helpful! Amanda really helped me to think through the reasoning behind each answer and to strategize. I am grateful that I took this prep class! YAY!

Just want to say TDC is great! I passed first time taking my LCSW exam with this program. Amanda and Heidi are great!

I have been waiting to write this! I successfully passed my LCSW exam today after two prior attempts where I missed only by a few points. I can say with confidence that TDC provided an organized studying system as well as timely feedback to any questions I had throughout my studying. TDC also provided support, helpful resources and encouragement when I felt completely defeated and doubted myself. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, resources, and experience to help others succeed with this daunting exam. I will forever be grateful and praise TDC!

TDC adequately prepared me for the LCSW clinical examination! I was very confused when I started studying as I was not sure of where to start or what to focus on. With the help of TDC I was able to focus my studying on necessary content and most importantly, learn HOW TO THINK when taking the test!

Excellent material very helpful . I think in general this program was helpful in learning and gaining more knowledge about social work . i would recommend to anyone totally worth it !!!

I was in search of a One AND Done support for my LCSW exam. I wanted practical information that would help me pass the exam on the first attempt and that is what I found in the Therapist Development Center. I passed on the first attempt and was so excited that I cried!

TDC was amazing!!! I failed my clinical licensing exam (LCSW exam) the first time around, having used other study materials and another prep course. I lead a busy life with two jobs and found the TDC format to be great since it really helps with both creating a study plan and staying organized on top of helping you learn the materials. Amanda, who runs the program, has a strong understanding of different learning styles and it really shows in the program. I loved that the study materials included options for listening to audio, reading quick studies, and forms to fill in (i.e. for notes and quizzes) which I think accommodates all kinds of learners. I also found it really helpful to listen to the audio on the Code of Ethics since knowing the COE is a key part of passing the exam and this audio helped to highlight key aspects of the COE in a digestible way so that you don't just have to read through it yourself. Pick a study buddy to get the program too and you can work through it together! My friend and I both used TDC and passed within the exam within a couple weeks of each other :)
