All i can say is that when i failed the first time by two points, I was shocked as i thought i had memorized all of the info required to pass the test. Within two days of not passing, i happened to have reached out to a social worker who was referred to me to speak about becoming a traveling social worker. I told him i had not passed the test, he immediately told me about this website, i went on that night, signed up, and spent 45 minutes just to see what it was about. I learned so much in that first 45 minutes, specifically that i could have memorized every fact, but that would only help me with 20% of the exam. AS the other part is really learning the ins and outs and everything else. I am an auditory learner, and i would recommend this website to every single person taking the exam. I am amazed how thorough this education is that the two LCSW's put together, and I cannot express enough gratitude for this awesome tool. Thank you, thank you thank you. And don't get me wrong, the exam was still very very difficult. But going into it, i knew i had the tools to get through the exam. I got a 107. I am a very happy LCSW and if anyone wants me to talk about it again, it would be my pleasure. 

I absolutely LOVE TDC!! I could NOT have done it without you!!!!! I also used your program to pass the law and ethics exam and I passed that the first time too! :) You really are amazing and even tho I was stressed and anxious, I knew I was well prepared. I did ALL the steps and just kept listening to the audios when I worked out, when I was in the car, when I was doing house cleaning....ALL The Time!!! I took you with me Amanda into the exam and I got so much encouragement from all of you. You were great at responding back to me so quickly and I just CANNOT say enough on how much I appreciate this study! Wow, I did it and I passed and even thru the doubts and fear, I kept going with the help of this study!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

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.
