My fellow veteran recommended this study system to me and I am I was so grateful that she did. Up she did I had been studying here and there with a hodge piece of material that well meaning people had thrown at me....was a bit overwhelming. This program is very regimented and leave everything out including your schedule for studying which I really appreciated. Even though my exam focus primarily on subjects outside of my medical social work practice I felt very prepared to answer their questions. I would not hesitate to recommend this training program to anyone. Thank you Therapist Development Center!!!

TDC gave me the confidence to pass! I used they strategies to attack the test! They worked! Follow the system and you will pass! Now I wish they had this information available to support Supervisors !

I am so thankful for TDC. I only had 10 days to study for the exam. I devoted time each day and was able to make it through the entire program two times before taking my test. I passed the test today with an 81% and I have TDC to thank! This program makes the content interesting and easy to retain. It felt like a good friend was giving me advice and strategies to help me pass. I can't stop spreading the word about this amazing program!

This program was rigorous yet prepared me well for the test. It provided the guidance needed and concise knowledge per area of study to focus on. The practice quizzes and mock exams felt nearly exact to the real exam. I tried many other routes for peace of mind; other dense materials I paid for through attending seminars and free online material and videos do not compare to the Therapist Development Center. I passed the clinical exam on the first try after completing their program.

I PASSED!!!!!! I took the exam Friday May 22, 2020 and passed with the help of TDC!! I took the test in May 18 and failed by 5 points and then had to postpone taking it again due to having a baby; however, when I signed back up to take it I researched other methods of studying because the Apgar book just seemed like it had WAY too much information. I came across TDC and I am soooooooo glad I did. I wouldn't of passed without this study course. The material in the top 50 topics was spot on and Amanda's reasoning as to how to get to the right answers are great. I took her in the room with me while taking the test. I will say one thing that helped me - I was already done with all the other materials for the course - was that I listened to the top 50 topics the morning before the exam and it for sure helped me. On my test there were about 5 questions that came up that I heard in the top 50 topics lecture, especially when Amanda was just talking about "you may see this or the test may ask you that." It was fresh on my mind going into to the test the following morning. I am so grateful for all of the coaches!!! Words cannot describe how I felt when I saw the PASS on the screen, I was crying with excitement lol. Heidi was a HUGE help, I would email her questions and the detailed responses were an added bonus to clarify things. Thank you, thank you, thank you TDC for being there with me to pass the LCSW exam !!!! I will recommend this to EVERYONE I know getting ready for it.

I'm not a native English speaker and standardized tests have always been hard for me. The Therapist Development Center helped me calm my anxiety and feel prepared for the exam. I loved all the tips on how to study and how to mentally prepare myself throughout the study period. I took these study tips seriously which allowed me to feel confident as I entered the exam center and throughout the entire test. I feel I rocked the exam thanks to the diligent, well organized, and well thought out study program from TDC. I feel it not only well prepared me for the exam, but it also once again brought the forefront many important social work values that help me be a stronger social worker. I highly recommend TDC as it is money well spent not just for passing the exam but for anxiety control as I prepared for the exam. Thank you for making this process doable and honestly enjoyable.

I submitted my application to the Board In February and was approved to take the LCSW exam in March, right when everything closed due to COVID. When our state’s Stay at Home Order was lifted, I registered for the exam. I found out on a Tuesday that I could take the test that coming Thursday or wait until September. While I did not have time to take the full mock exam prior to taking my exam, I felt that all the lectures, quick studies, and quizzes were all helpful in preparing me to take and PASS the exam on my first try. Thank you TDC!!

I have been out of social work school for 25 years so I was at a loss as to what and how to study. I started with a book given to me by a friend but was not retaining the information and felt completely overwhelmed. Another friend recommended TDC and I am so glad she did. The structure of the programs, being able to listen to the audios and the quizzes and mock exams were exactly what I needed. I passed on the first attempt thanks to TDC. In addition, I had some issues getting my exam scheduled and TDC provided me with 2 extensions with no hassle at all.

After I failed the first exam, I felt unbelievably discouraged to try again. Prior to the TDC, I used every study material you could think of. But this program provided me with the training in clinically appropriate critical thinking skills. I am very grateful and now I can rest easy knowing that this tremendous weight it off my shoulders!! Thank you.
