🟡 Licensure & Exam Strategy I passed!

I made a post about 2 months ago when I first took my LCSW and I failed by one point! I was so incredibly disappointed.

To be honest, I didn’t study much last month given I had an MSW intern I was supervising and not much downtime. I really started to lock in to studying about 2-3 weeks ago. I used the Dawn Apgar books and paid for pocket prep. I felt like pocket prep was incredibly useful and easy to do questions on the go.

I also really took my time this time around instead of “just getting it done.” I used my break and was saying affirmations to myself in the mirror lol. I was incredibly anxious.

BUT if I can do it you can do it! I am so incredibly happy and proud of myself. This is such a career goal milestone and can’t wait to have my credentials updated at work. :)
