I am horrible test taker and English is my second language, german native here. I was worried and doubted my ability to pass on the first try, I did TDCs program three times and passed with flying colors. I prepared myself based on the guidelines in the study prep and it helped me soothe my anxiety. I used other studying book materials before trying TDC but it wasn't helpful, no information was sticking. Anyways, it's a great program!! I can only highly recommend it, especially for those who grow up with a different language.

I came across TDC soon after starting my MSW journey in 2020. I saved the information for future use especially because of the discounts for military and veterans. I am in my last quarter of school and will graduate next month in February. I requested for the military discount after I had my exam date scheduled and heard back within an appropriate time frame. I liked the audio part of the program as I was able to listen to the information while driving. I also liked the anecdotal stories that helped me remember the information. TDC study material was simple and to the point. I purchased another study material which was a physical book and found it was very overwhelming with too much information. The TDC mock exam was very close to and indicative of the ASWB board practice and actual exam. I would definitely recommend TDC to everyone. First time to pass the licensure exam and passed before the conferral of my degree. Thank you to TDC. I will be back for the LCSW Exam.

Hi TDC Family, Today I passed my LMSW! When I first began this road with TDC, I scored a 58% on the Top 50 pretest. I was mortified. Having graduated last May, I knew I wasn't ready to take the exam, so I procrastinated until a recent job offer was contingent upon my successful passing. So, seven weeks ago, I started with another test prep company, which I won't name. But, I quickly realized I would need a different teaching method than just utilizing acronyms. Realizing that I was running out of time, I remembered TDC as a suggestion from my professor. So, I committed to the investment. After my first pass-through of the materials, I scored 64% on the DSM 5 exam, 86% on the Values and Ethics, and 82% on the crisis. Then, I scored a 72% on Mock exam one and a 74% on mock exam two. As outlined by the study plan, I repeated the course, and my scores increased to 86%, 86%, 90%, 90%, and 88%, respectively. I ended the course scoring an 82% on the final mock exam. If you're CONSIDERING purchasing this course, stop it! Just buy the course and be glad that you did. In six weeks, I went from "Questioning my ability to successfully pass the exam to walking into the testing center this morning feeling confident and prepared that I knew the material and was ready to pass!" Thank you so much.

I can’t thank Therapist Development Center enough for helping me prepare for my LMSW exam. The program was on point, and all areas were helpful, from the comprehensive study materials to the practice questions that really made a difference. What I loved most was the practical advice, like the reminder to take a snack at question 85 – it was such a small but incredibly thoughtful tip that helped me stay focused during the exam. Thanks to Amanda and colleague for their support, I felt confident and well-prepared, and I’m thrilled to have passed! I highly recommend this service to anyone looking to ace the social work licensure exam!!

From start to finish, this course was well-organized, informative, and best of all positively motivating. I loved the checklists and timelines, which helped guide my studying in a formalized way that really worked for me. My score on the actual exam aligned almost exactly with the scores I earned on the TDC practice exams. Thank you for helping make a daunting process much more manageable.

The structure and set up of the program really streamlined the study process and made it seem more manageable to learn all of the content covered in the exam. Short of covering all potential exam questions, which isn't possible, this is a great tool, especially to learn and practice the way the exam wants you to think and answer questions.

I'm thrilled to report that last week I scored an 85% on the LMSW exam! The Therapist Development Center program was the only study material I used. I found it to be comprehensive, engaging and easy to use. After completing the exam, I am aware of how well designed the study course is. It thoroughly covers material that is tested, yet does not overload the learner with extraneous material. I was nervous about passing the test but put my faith in the Therapist Development Center. I'm so glad I did and am thankful that I such an effective study center exists for behavioral health professionals. I will definitely be using TDC again when it's time for my LCSW exam. I highly recommend them!

Overall, I believe TDC is a great tool to use to pass the LMSW exam. I felt prepared and confident because of TDC. My TDC LMSW Coach, Shelby Fontaine, was very helpful and responsive. I am very happy with the TDC experience.

I highly recommend TDC to anyone needing more structure in studying for the LMSW. She does a good job of breaking down the material. I especially found the exams useful and the mini quizzes to assess where I am along my studying journey.

If you are not a "book learner" try Therapy Development. The online sessions that you can listen to at your own pace and start/stop helped me pass on the first try.
