I am so thankful for Amanda and the team at therapist development center!!! Any time I was stumped on a question, I would think of the "Let's Talk Ethics" lecture and remember the purpose of the exam is to test my competence and the goal is to always prioritize the client's well being. This mindset really helped me narrow down my answers. I also really appreciated the last prep lecture where Amanda mentioned not changing any answers unless you have an "aha moment." I probably would have been tempted to go back and second guess a bunch if I had not had that advice. I seriously feel like the team are my close friends, haha. You guys helped so much and I am so grateful for this prep course!!

Best program ever!!!!

I felt overwhelmed trying to study for the LMSW. I heard horror stories. I purchased this study system after attempting to read through the AGPAR book. Your program gave me structure and a timeline. It was so true what you all said that you wouldn't need to learn the DSM-5 and medications. The quick studies were so helpful as were the Mock Exams. I had confidence after taking the exams and passing. There are so many practice exams that were nothing like the real thing. Your program was the closest. I didn't realize how much of an auditory learner I am until this program. #0neandone

Thank you Therapist Development Center, for presenting this well developed study program. I passed my LMSW exam on my first attempt .

I followed the whole program and studied religiously. TDC helped me understand concepts and what the test was testing. I felt prepared throughout my entire exam. Thank you!

Thank you Amanda and Emily. I am so happy and relieved that I passed! Now on to looking for work!

I found out about TDC on a social work support group on Facebook. I knew I only wanted to take my test ONCE and researched multiple programs! I am an auditory learning and having the opportunity to listen to someone breakdown the subject matter was VERY helpful! I was weary about the cost of this program but was assured that if I didn’t pass I could still use the materials. I am SO HAPPY God led me to TDC!

Before discovering the Therapist Development Center, I felt I beat my head with a sledge hammer trying to prepare for my LMSW exam with a thick manual as my study material, but 90 % of the content I studied was not in the exam. I took the exam twice with this same method and I was irate and frustrated. When I learned of the Therapist Development Center and started preparing for the test again, I felt I finally had a plan and I didn't scratch my head wondering if TDC's material covered the majority of the content I would expect to see on the exam. I missed by one point the first time with TDC, but it was not because TDC didn't work. I failed to pay better attention to Amanda's strategies to help me with my testing anxiety. Trust TDC system and don't short cut anything! My next time taking the test, I passed with plenty to spare.

Great study material including handouts and audio.

I was so nervous to even start studying for this exam. I had bought two other study guides before purchasing TDC and I got so overwhelmed with the material those other guides had. I thought to myself, there is no way that I can learn all this, some of the material on those guides I had never even seen before. So I did my research and decided to pay for TDC and I do no regret it at all. Following their outline and doing everything they say worked so well for me. I was able to answer the questions using their strategies and I was very successful. I really recommend this program 100%. I passed my test on my first try with 17 questions more than than the required to pass and I feel so relief.
Thank you TDC. I will definitely choose them again in the future for my LCSW.
