This helped me so much by breaking it down by asking these questions!!!
People really go to university and don't even know every single mental illness when 14 year olds memorize the DSM in 2 weeks 😂 i hate all of you
This video with the code of ethics is helpful. I'm studying for the LMSW exam. Thank you
Hi Karen, I am interested to order but like to know if this guide is a pdf, or paper format? Thank you!
It's a PDF, but you can print it!
Awesome! And not just because of the cats!
Sent❣️❣️
Sent!
I just passed my exams. Thank you very much.
Yay, congrats!!
Love your videos and PDF study guide! Other than the official practice exam, your exam study content is my favorite, hands down.
So glad to hear this, thanks for sharing!
I've seen it on an exam version.
Thank you!
You go too fast
I have to take this stupid exam for the 4th time. This time on a waiver because I was 9 points away from passing... Talk about feeling defeated for weeks... I will remember this acronym throughout the exam. Maybe this is what I was missing. I swear the whole exam didn't even really mention theorists etc, it was all based on First, Most, Best, questions.
Hello, I plan to take the LMSW exam in December. Is your study guide still available and relevant to use as a study tool this year?
Thanks for reaching out! Yes, I can provide my 150+ page SW licensing study guide (relevant for all levels of the ASWB exam) via email in a printable PDF file format for $50. You can send payment through PayPal or Zelle to this email address (kmagrudercounseling@gmail.com), Cash App ($MagruderSocialWork) or Venmo (@Karen-Magruder). If it asks for the last four digits of my cell, it's 0661. If you see Karen Johnston that’s me too (maiden name). Once I receive payment I will get it sent to you in an email typically within one business day, along with a couple test-taking tips from me.
Thanks for this info.
You helped me figure out the behaviors of my brother who has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome but has always struggled with ALL of the things described with Delusional Disorder... literally every single one. We will be readdressing these struggles with the doctor to confirm.
Thank you so much - this is the best explanation I have heard - I always thought positive and negative were GOOD and BAD
I would like to order😊

@@karenmagruderlcsw-s9655 is it a book or something digital
Thank you. I was in a "crisis" and needed to hear a voice spell it out; A, B, C, D, E and do an exercise. I wrote my unhelpful thoughts and beliefs down and now feel unburdened.
I really needed this thank you.
This is the cutest way to explain a topic simply, when the theory tends to be very deep! Thank you so much 😊!
Great video! Very informative and presented clearly and thoroughly. Thank you for clarifying REBT
super helpful!
Exellent presentation, thank you.
This was SO helpful! Thank you! It was brief, to the point, and provided examples that I can actually use with confidence.
Great video! Where is the update based on the DSM-5 TR?
th-cam.com/video/CRdnPDow4pQ/w-d-xo.html
Money sent! Realy enjoyed you as a professor and am super excited to receive the study guide! 68 more days before I test!
This is super helpful, thank you!
you explained it the best out of any other channel! You earned a sub!

Hi I purchased the study guide in 2022 - Is there much difference between the two?
There is some updated and expanded content- if you email me directly I can share more info. I offer significantly reduced prices for updated copies!
I have just Zelle you for the study guide. When would I be receiving it?
If you Zelle was sent from someone with initials AZ then I already sent you the guide 🙂
I'm working on my masters in Rehabilitation counseling. This really really helps. You go girl!
Thank you. This is so helpful as I study for my LBS1 290 exam

Very informative and helpful.
Thank you Ms. Magruder! I am working on a community needs assessment for a social work class and I found this information very helpful.
Really good explanations and relatable examples + humor. Thank you for this !
Hi. I’m taking my LCSW and just Venmo you for the study guide. Thanks 😊❤
Do you private tutorial? I have taken the LCSW multiple times and hoping to pass it soon. Taking it in March… thanks
@@michellebieliunas4845 So curious, how did it go? Did you find the study guide to be helpful? Thanks.
Thank you for the informative video!
This new study guide is awesome. It contains all the information you need to successfully pass the exam. Thanks to Karen for my recent passing of the clinical exam including her guide, videos and exceptional videos explaining concepts to help you master them for the test. I highly recommend you get this guide--it definitely helped me!
Thanks for the feedback and congrats on passing!
this was really helpful!! the categorical beakdown truly helped
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Really appreciate the application of SW professional roles to these stages. Thoughts: generativity can include volunteerism and civic engagement. It is also the stage at which many adults are becoming grandparents and supporting their children's transition to adulthood. It can be helpful to think of integrity in terms of "structural integrity" of the ego or psyche. SW's in hospice and in aging services are also involved at this stage.
thanks, very informative!
