LCSW

Preparing for the LCSW exam is daunting.  I found that having the guidance and support of The Therapist Development Center gave me the individualized direction I needed to know what and how to study for the exam.   The workshops allowed me to break down a large amount of information into a more “doable” amount of information. I found the individual tutoring session particularly helpful.  My tutor was able to assess my practice exam results allowing for a tailored session that focused on areas of the exam that was most challenging for my individual case.  I believe I was less anxious during the actual testing experience because I had that individual time with a tutor to talk about my individual challenge areas.  I obtained a better understanding of how to read a question stem and determine what the question was asking.  Overall, the support received from the Therapist Development Center was what I needed when preparing for the LCSW exam… and it worked!  I PASSED!
