Thank you for the excellent explanation!!!!!

Y’all are woke! Stop it! Glad I didn’t spend my money on yall. Answer is A.

Can we do installments and who do we call to have it arranged?

There seems to be a mix up here. Experiential/Symbolic Therapy is focused on the authentic meeting of therapist and client in the present moment as well as expanding the client's range of experience. Existential Therapy believes change occurs by confronting anxiety and increasing one's sense of agency. None of these answers are fully aligned with Humanistic & Existential Therapy. D is closest, but still misses the mark. Increasing the couple's ability to respond to one another's needs is not uniquely Existential.

BINGE EATING DISORDER!!!!!

Are these the same videos i will see when I purchase TDC ? Do videos go more in depth into actual mechanism? What is the structure of this program?

I am curious about option D, particularly the "Utilize circular questioning to identify dysfunctional communication patters." Is that using systems theory terms incorrectly? I don't know much about circular questioning, but I do realize I use it often. I'm curious about the misuse of the terms for option D (which one and how so?)

Let's clarify further. When a client shows signs of bipolar disorder, the first priority is to ensure they receive the right medical treatment to manage their symptoms effectively. Correct Answer: B. Refer to a psychiatrist for medication management. Why? Bipolar disorder usually requires medication to control mood swings. Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and prescribe these medications. This makes it the critical first step in treatment. Why the other options are not first steps: A. Refer to an MD for a physical evaluation. A physical evaluation can rule out other conditions but won't address the immediate need to stabilize mood swings, which is essential for managing bipolar disorder. C. Refer to a support group for young adults with bipolar disorder. Support groups provide emotional support and coping strategies but don't replace the need for medical treatment, which should come first. D. Begin psychotherapy. Psychotherapy is important for long-term management and coping strategies but isn't sufficient alone to stabilize severe mood swings typical in bipolar disorder. Medication often needs to be in place first. In summary, the most urgent need is to manage the client's mood swings effectively through medication, making referral to a psychiatrist the necessary first step.

This is a great example of where you need to learn how the test thinks and how that may differ from real life clinicians. The main refrain in my Master's was "you always have bias, it's your job to be aware of it and not allow bias to negatively affect your social work". The idea of treating "without bias" is nonsensical based on my training, but that's why it's so good I have access to these videos!

Hi, I’d like to get assistance to take the exam :)

Very helpful even though I’m nit preparing for exam

On the CADC exam there is a question that is confusing. Which type of therapy is most directive. Offering tje greatest potential for abuse of power by the counselor? The answer is Gestalt but can't figure why.

It’s been my experience that DCFS in local CA gov agency wouldn’t take the call for out of state. I was so frustrated

these two videos on NPD are mislabeled - the recall video has the reasoning title; the reasoning video has the recall title

I used TDC for LMSW; thinking about using TDC for my LCSW..is there a difference in LMSW and LCSW study material?

Thanks a lot !🎉

This has to be the most ridiculous question I have ever seen. So what are the guidelines for systemic oppression?? I think you mean A is the correct answer

Why would it not be c? Are you at the beginning or end phase of treatment?

Based upon his age and not letting anyone get close to him why isn’t the answer initimacy vs isolation? I take my test 10/21 and now even more confused.

This is FRAUD! I paid for their service and I can NOT access the study material!

My opinion is that A is the correct answer, not B. In New York, we accept clients with low income, and we use a sliding scale based on their income level. In what ways can we approve clients who have experienced systemic oppression?

This is the problem that i have with TDC. She has a tentative plan! And she mentioned losing a job (loss of social support) and not feeling connected to friends! Sure i would ask about family support but B kind of negates the fact that the stem says she is having trouble connecting socially. The answer basically invalidates what the client said!!

anyone recently take the LMSW exam?

This is incorrect. Erikson stages are also based in age. Autonomy v shame and doubt is toddler phase and learning to do things on your own without being coddled (i.e feeding, dressing, and other basics) autonomy v shame is ages 18 months to 3 years

Well, I got this question right. If only they all were as straightforward.

These are great! Thank you for making such helpful content

Please read little more slow..I love his videos and I have a really hard time following you up

Excellent! Thank you.

The worst thing happened. I missed my date to renew my program. Is there anyway I can renew even though I’m late. Ugh swear if it wasn’t for bad luck I’d have no luck at all

How can I send an email? I paid for TDC. I tried to renew because I haven’t taken my test yet. How can I get in touch with you. I can’t log in. I think I’m past my time to renew.

I just want to say thank you for uploading videos. I listened to them frequently and they helped me pass my test.

How do I get info on a LPC Test/ qual ?

I decided to try TDC back in April to take my LISW-CP Exam. I kept failing the test by 3-4 questions and couldn't understand why, but I heard others rave about TDC. So, I purchased TDC and studied vigorously everday for about 3 weeks. Took the exam and PASSED!! I wish I tried TDC sooner lol!

I was told that because it's out of California the answer would be B?

This audio it is really fast, I would loe to see this in a little bit slow thus is really helpful Thank you

the answers in the slide do not match what is said. The slide has answser D as BED

As a licensed therapist for 20 years, I can say I don’t remember the Ericksonian stages at all. Theoretically interesting, versus scientifically valid? I tended to move towards more of an evidence-based approach. It’s important to have a theory. The very common “imposter syndrome,” explains this better than some thing that “in theory” might have happened in his very early childhood and is virtually impossible to deal with at this stage of the persons life. Imposter syndrome is common, and often leads people to feel as though they are not as confident as they might actually be. However, when you have a masters degree in something, you probably know more than 95% of the people in society about that particular narrow topic. You’re only an imposter if you pretend to know more than that, and some of us have difficulty understanding that we actually do know what we know and are as knowledgeable as we actually are. Insight about theoretical stuff that might have - or did - happen forty years ago? Good luck. Write a Treatment plan for that. Another evidence-based, scientifically researched phenomena that accounts for this has to do with how people who are actually good at something measure them selves as opposed to people who believe they are good at something but might not actually be competent. It might be from Daniel Goleman‘s research in his book “thinking fast and thinking slow,” where it was mentioned that a study of people who are judged by others as being very competent, versus a group of people who are judged by others as being virtually incompetent. Often times an incompetent person judges their relative proficiency on what they believe, and denigrate the knowledge of others, and asserts themselves to be more confident than they actually are. However, people who are actually highly competent are often worse judges of themselves and measure themselves by the perfection that they seek to attain, and compare them self not to others, but to their own potential. Truly competent people are seeking to get better. They judge themselves against the gap between perfection and their current level. Lazy people think they’ve arrived. Thus, there’s limitless ways to theoretically characterize this scenario. I am not convinced that in practice these stages are as helpful as more behavior based change. Those are just a couple of examples of scientific research that explains much better than these theories that seek to root all these things in our childhood stages, which are real, but we don’t understand them. We don’t understand their interactions. Individual psychology is very unique. If you were putting together a treatment plan for this person, and you wanted to line your pockets with a year of therapy, how about it. Some people just want to run their mouth and you can talk about their childhood until they die and it’s not gonna change very much of anything for most people. In a case like this you’d have to say what are the deficits that you’re seeking to remediate? What is your goal for being in therapy? What would it look like to you if the problems that you’ve described magically disappeared overnight and you had to give me proof that you no longer suffered from these problems? A solution focused approach the counseling doesn’t often spend a lot of time in non useful hypothesizing

Interesting. Thank you for sharing. I hope you do not mind... we have a Psychology channel where we discuss topics such as transference and counter transference. We also discuss Safeguarding and Child Protection etc. Any support is greatly appreciated.

The key differentiator here is actually quitting the job.

Thank You So much, I passed the LCSW!!

I’m confused by this question. I thought the answer would be A as the question already states that the supervisor is meeting with the supervisee?

Thank you for the overview
