THANK YOU TDC! I appreciate the effort and dedication taken to set up this program! Very grateful I was able to pass!

First off, I passed!!!!!
I am very grateful that a program like this exist where the real exam is targeted.
I would say that although I felt stressed at times, this program really gave me the confidence to overcome my test anxiety. All the tips given by Amanda were right on point and with that she kept me on check throughout the exam.

Another thing that I did not think was possible and this program made possible was that i still enjoyed my life and felt like a normal person while studying and growing professionally.

Lastly, I would say that this program prepared me more than to just past a test, but it really put me in the role of the social worker and strengthen my clinical skills.

Forever grateful TDC !

After going through the LCSW Study System, I passed on my first attempt. The Therapist Development Center is the best. Trust the process -- Amanda and the rest of the team really know what they're doing.

This program was, hands down, the biggest blessing. It calmed my nerves, increased my self-confidence, and accurately depicted what it was like to sit for the exam. Their strategies for reasoning and the way they teach the material truly was what helped me pass this exam!

Thanks to the Team at Therapist Development Center. I appreciate the information TDC provided and how it aided my plight to becoming a LCSW!!! This has been a long journey but I did not give up. Even after failing the test multiple times I continued to utilized the Therapist Development Center. I scored 106 while just needing 102... Moving Forward In One Direction

I feel that TDC was excellent at preparing me to pass the CA-LCSW exam the first time. I followed their study plan & completed the program twice in order to be successful. I am beyond grateful for such the thorough test prep course they have. Thank you all at TDC!!

I have been in the social work field for 12 years with forward progression for most of my career. 5 years ago I decided to take my LCSW exam (studied LMSW prep books) and was shocked when I did not pass (by 3 questions). For the next 3 attempts I progressed from buying study guides that had exam samples (failed by 7 questions), Computer program to practice taking exams (failed by 5 questions), one day workshop (failed by 4 questions). I had honestly given up on ever passing. It was my former Interns and supervisees that encouraged me, and pushed me to try again. I had very little hope but sine the first day that I came across the Therapist Development Center, I felt it could be possible. I work full time, have a home and 3 children so my study time was limited. Yet each lecture, study guide, subject test, build my confidence. I started to feel confident that I could pass this time. I felt that you were talking directly to me, that you believed in me, that this exam was possible. Having the study guides helped me feel ready without overwhelming me. The slow increments to build stamina worked and I was able to stay present the entire 170 questions. I cried when the "Congratulations" and "Pass" popped up on the screen. I cannot Thank you enough!! You made this possible for me.

TDC's program and materials provided were excellent. The study program worked very well for my learning style. I felt supported, confidant and very prepared for the exam. This program over prepares you so that you are confidant and will PASS the first time.

Great study guide, very informational, great for on the go, touched every topic on the exam. Quizzes and mock exam helped prepare for type of questions on exam and prepared for the sitting! *breaking during the halfway mark and cough drop tip very helpful as your mind can easily wander. Overall a great program! I’m already highly recommending to every social worker i come in contact with as if I’m on TDCs payroll ! Very satisfied customer !

As you mentioned so early in the program, Amanda, this study program and the test itself is about our competence and knowledge we bring to the field. I truly enjoyed the content of your course and will say emphatically that it has helped me be a better social worker, increased my confidence and made me mush more curious about our ethics and how the COE guides our practice, very helpful to lean into the strategies and rationals as the test questions were more difficult than I anticipated. Well done, TDC!
