After failing the first time by 5 points using other materials I decided to take the jump and buy TDC. It was the best decision I made. It prepared me to really learn how to answer the questions and apply my reasoning skills. It helped me feel confident and equipped to take the exam and PASS!

This study guide was absolutely amazing. I felt confident and prepared

I have been in the field for over 20 years. I started preparing to take it two years ago and quit! The resources I was using were overwhelming and immense. When I knew I had to take it, I found this program. As soon as I bought it, I felt better. The very first lecture left me feeling grounded and organized. I felt calm about this exam for the first time. In four days my practice tests jumped by 25 points. I studied for two and a half months and with each passing quiz/test I grew more confident. I listened to the final pep talk hours before the exam where my stress level was quite high! It literally brought me to tears. Several times throughout I heard "lean in" and I listened to "the a-ha moment rule". Hearing parts of the tips/lectures in my head was extremely helpful. I went to the exam confident and prepared. During my break, I regrouped and went back and all the marked questions seemed more clear. That moment of hitting submit and seeing congratulations was amazing. I know for sure that without this program I would still be spinning trying to prepare. The test center asked which program I used since they said a lot of people feel defeated after failing this test. They took down the information. I cannot say enough! Thank you, thank you. The Facebook group was also so helpful and supportive.

TDC prepared in a way far different than other programs/ material that I previously used to study. The test is tricky as I failed it numerous times previously. In my opinion, the best way to prepare is to understand the question and what the test is trying to ask you because it is far different than in actual practice. Understanding how to answer first/next and best/most questions was a challenge for me but TDC actually helped me to finally understand it and pass successfully! Yes understanding the material is important, but understanding how to take the test and answer reasoning based questions is so much more important!

TDC was really good about responding to my questions in a timely manner, and attempting to calm my nerves about the test. And I passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

I am so happy that I decided to go with the Therapist Development Center to help prepare me for the social work licensing exam. The study guides, quizzes, tests and materials provided completely prepared me for the exam and I passed the first time. The tips provided on simply knowing how to think through each question logically and comprehensively ("If you were to do all of them, put them in order...") helped tremendously throughout the exam. I kept hearing Amanda's voice in my head talking me through the questions. I do not think that studying on my own through books would have been nearly enough, or made me confident enough when I took this exam. Thank you very much for all that you do and for the wonderful program!

I utilized the Therapist Development Center for both exams and I am now officially an LCSW. Their study material is very structured and user friendly. Their audio lectures were the perfect study tool for my long commute. TDC is definitely the way to go if you want to pass your exams the first time. Thanks TDC!!!

Im so grateful for this program. I am especially grateful for the way it is organized for you. There's never a question of what to study or when to study. Each and every quiz, review, and lecture was useful. Thank you TDC.

I could not have passed without the assistance of TDC! I appreciate all the extensions and questions answered during my program.

Despite being nervous, I felt very prepared. The study material helped me conceptualize the questions to determine the best course of action. I followed the weekly study guides and day of the test I knew I was ready.
