I had the fortunate luck of meeting Amanda at a course designed to assist therapists in passing the LCSW licensing exam in CA in June of 2010. I was so impressed by Amanda's teaching style and ability to explain complex concepts into simple and practical steps that I hired her as my private tutor in order to help me further prepare for the 2nd LCSW licensing exam for the state of CA. I found Amanda to be extremely knowledgeable about the testing process. She has a keen ability to take what can feel overwhelming and cumbersome and make it succinct and manageable. I felt fully prepared on test day and was calm and collected as I took the exam, which I passed. I fully credit Amanda Rowan to my success of passing this very extensive and difficult exam. Since that time Amanda has gone on to establish The Therapist Development Center. I am pleased to know she has expanded her services to help so many therapists reach their professional goals. Amanda is kind, genuine, helpful, and open. I highly recommend Amanda as both a therapist and a resource to other therapists alike.
