We're the top rated exam prep company in the country. 

Our reviews speak for themselves. When you study smart, you will pass with confidence. We’ve helped over 100,000 social workers and MFTs pass their licensure exams.

Whether you’re taking your licensing exam or fulfilling your CE requirements, we know what is needed to help you thrive, and will ensure that you do, too.

A Message From the Founder

Amanda Rowan, LCSW

Founder and CEO

If you are reading this, it probably means you are planning to take your Social Work Exam or MFT licensing exam soon. Maybe you’ve taken the exam once and failed, or maybe this will be your first attempt. Either way, here at the Therapist Development Center we understand that you only want to invest time and money into a program that is going to help you learn what you need to pass.

I know what you are going through because I also struggled to find the right Social Work Exam Prep program. I bought books and apps. I attended LCSW Exam workshops. I felt completely overwhelmed with content and disorganized in my studying. When I took the Social Work Exam, I passed, but I was shocked to see that most of what I studied was not on the LCSW Exam! I felt I had wasted time and money on programs that didn’t help me at all. 

I also realized that many of the Social Work Prep programs were created by people who never took the actual Social Work Exams! So they had no idea what the real exam was like. I also knew from my undergraduate major in the neuroscience of learning that there was a smarter way to study. I decided to create my own study systems. That is how the Therapist Development Center was born.

Selecting a Social Work Exam Prep Program or MFT Exam Prep program is about one thing: TRUST. When you purchase a program or sign up for a workshop, you are trusting someone to guide you through the process of passing the licensing exam. Different companies and workshops claim to have the “best” way to prepare, but few can articulate the philosophy that guides their approach. We can.

Stay in the loop!
