    – Alyssa Lanzi
  • “I purchased my Therapyed book last year at NBASLH and I started studying the summer following the conference. I read each chapter thoroughly and created exams using the computer program after studying each chapter. I took the PRAXIS exam in February and passed on the first try. Thank you so much, the practice exams really helped me.””
    – Areini Arzu Touro College
  • “This is my NEW FAVORITE PRAXIS prep book. Students who struggle to pass the first time using other study guides are able to pass regularly after using the TherapyEd Review and Study Guide. The explanations of why one answer is right and the others are wrong is the most powerful feature in my opinion. It is my new required text for all PRAXIS prep course work.”
    – Janice Smith Western Kentucky University
  • “TherapyEd’s guide has quickly become my students’ go-to resource as they prepare to take the PRAXIS exam.
