Who We Are
The 3000 Club is a group designed to support pre-licensed therapists on their journey towards licensure.
What to Expect
At the SGV-CAMFT 3000 club meet-ups you can expect networking opportunities to connect with other pre-licensed therapists, as well as access to a supportive community of licensed therapists who will have the answers to your questions about the licensure process.
When We Meet
SGV-CAMFT is now offering two 3000 Club meetings every month to support pre-licensed therapists on their road to licensure. One monthly meeting will be hosted by Emerald Aueyong, LMFT, LPCC and is held every first Friday of the month virtually via Zoom (the link will be sent in registration emails). The second monthly meeting of the 3000 Club is held usually every third weekend of the month in person at varying locations with facilitator Joe Girillo, LMFT.
About This Meet-Up
The 3000 Club group this month will focus on the topic "Testing and Applications with TDC Coach, Deanna Hudgins, LMFT."
Join us for a discussion on study tips for the law and ethics exam + clinical exam, and best practices to submit your application successfully! This meeting will cover application submission for associate numbers in addition to licensure applications. You are also welcome to email me (Emerald, therapywithemerald@gmail.com) if you have specific questions and cannot attend the meeting. I'm more than happy to help!
Deanna Hudgins is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist based in Los Angeles and a testing coach for Therapist Development Center (TDC). She holds a Bachelor of Music degree from Cal State University, Northridge, and earned a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology from Azusa Pacific University (CA). She is trained extensively in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and currently provides comprehensive DBT services via group practice, and DBT-informed and eclectic services via group and private practice. Deanna used TDC's test preparation materials to pass her clinical exam successfully. She found the program to be a fabulous combination of straightforward, accessible materials for learning everything that would be included in the exam, as well as test-taking strategies that were essential for managing anxiety on exam day. Deanna's professional path has been shaped by a commitment to education, service, and support. She joined TDC in 2025 and she is delighted to work with California and National MFT Exam hopefuls as a co-learner and exam coach.
