First of all, I would like to thank TDC's staff for all of their support. I used TDC for both my Law & Ethics and Clinical LCSW exams. I passed both of those exams on my 2nd try. The study materials were very helpful and I felt mostly prepared. What helped me most was listening to Amanda instruct on how to think about the questions/approach the questions. This really helped me develop better critical thinking during the exam because there were a lot of questions that were "different" from the study material, however I was able to be successful using the tools TDC provided. Every time I contacted TDC, a staff member responded very quickly and answered my questions thoroughly. I would definitely recommend TDC to anyone needed to study for their exams. Great training program. Thank you.

After failing the clinical exam the first time by 15 points, I was reluctant to test again. TDC helped take away the test fright and build confidence in knowing the material. I struggled passing the practice exams and questions on so many levels. I reached out to a coach who gave me an "aha" moment. I took the coaches advice, worked through the TDC curriculum and passed the second time with confidence. I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to pass the clinical exam.

I am excited that I finally passed! I took the exam 2 other times. The first time I felt the exam was super heavy in Macro topics. The second time I missed it by 1. This time reviewing the program and having the newly added Macro section really helped! Thank you TDC!!!

Honestly, this was such a great investment. At first, it seemed quite a steep price to pay, but after passing on my first try the investment was well worth it. You can either invest in TDC and take the exam once or spend double the amount of money on other study materials and taking the exam numerous times. Thank you TDC -- I did it!!!!

Thank you so much, Amanda and TDC! I took the LCSW exam for the first time back in January and missed passing by 1 point. In preparing to take the test a second time, I knew I had to reinvigorate my approach to studying if I was going to pass. That's when I signed up for TDC. Your program and the way you broke down each category and question, gave me a the understanding and confidence I needed to conquer this exam! On my second attempt on May 4th, not only did I pass, but I scored a 116, 13 more than I needed to pass! Thank you for this wonderful study program! I have already recommended it to my social worker colleagues who are getting ready to study for their exams and I will continue to sing your praises :)

First time I took the exam and used another study system I failed by 9 points. A close friend suggested TDC and I couldn’t be more grateful. The thing I loved most about TDC is how the material can be used for any and every type of learning style. Still can’t even explain how happy I was (and still am) to have seen that PASS on my screen!! I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is planning on taking the LCSW exam. It not only helped me lock in the content, but build my confidence along the way. Thank you again TDC, honestly couldn’t have done it without you!!!

My process of earning my LCSW has been challenging. After four years of advocating for clinical supervision at different employers. After 3200 hours in January 2019 and much frustration, I submitted my hours. The added frustration started a year ago when my wife and I made plans to move closer to her parents and buy a house in Oregon, so I started studying a year ago. back to January 2019, I bought the TDC program and started moving my studying into overdrive. It took 8-weeks to hear back from the board and then another 2 weeks for approval to test. I quickly scheduled my test with the was able to pass! This process created lots of anxiety, so I took TDC advise to drink a lot of water and exercising. On test day, I ate a big breakfast and listen to lots of audio lectures from TDC (especially the code of ethics) up until I went into the test. Once I started the test, I felt okay (probably because of the the mock test and Pocket prep test). Then pushed the button for my test results feeling super nervous and the results came back "Passed" I was so excited and happy. Thanks TDC.

The TDC study system was amazing. I felt prepared and the rationales were so helpful. The material did not overwhelm me, and I felt confident on the day of the test. If I did not know an answer I was able to rule out half the answers to a question which made it easy to choose between the two remaining answers.
I highly recommend the TDC study system. I never thought I would pass the LCSW on the first try!
I'm elated!
Thanks Amanda and the TDC Team!

I am over the top thrilled to announce that I PASSED the exam immediately after participating in the TDC program. I thoroughly enjoyed engaging in this study program-yes it was FUN!! I felt extremely confident and prepared!!! Did I mention I PASSED!!! Amanda and her partner were so organized and simplified the entire study process!!!!

Therapist Development Center gave me the tools I needed to pass my LCSW exam on the first try. The rationales behind the question answers were extremely helpful in teaching me to understand what answers the test is looking for. The course strips away your style of thinking and rebuilds it in a way that prepares you for the exam. I am so grateful for TDC and would recommend that anyone sitting for an exam utilize their services!
