Printable PDF Download: Visual Study Guide for the NCE

$22.00
I created this NCE Visual Study Guide to help visual learners prepare for the National Counselor Exam. 

This resource includes 14 full-page study sheets covering Human Growth & Development, Mental Health, Diversity, Helping Relationships,  Group Counseling,  Assessment,  and Ethics.  My complete set of study sheets, which includes sections on Career Development and Research, is only available in print. Find it here.

Please note: this resource was prepared for visual learners who already have a basic awareness of core counseling concepts. I  believe it will be a valuable tool for many test takers who struggle with traditional test prep materials.  

Because this is a creative work based on my own engagement with the test material, this book is an incomplete study resource. It should not be used as your only tool for test prep. I recommend using this resource paired with an online test prep app and traditional study materials. Use of this study guide does not guarantee a passing score.

Can I share my PDF with others?

In order for Lindsay's art to remain sustainable, license terms limit sharing.

With a personal use license, the resource is just for you- no sharing. With a professional use license, you may share with your direct clients in the ordinary course of work. WIth a shared professional license, you may share the resource with a limited number of colleagues for them to use with a professional use license.

If you'd like to share my art with someone, send them a link to my site or share the social media post featuring the art.

How should I print this PDF?

Great question! The PDF is designed to be printed on standard 8.5 x 11 inch paper.

For best results, choose “Fit to Page” from your print dialogue and select high-quality printing. Use bright white paper and fresh ink. Matte paper generally produces a softer, cleaner look than glossy paper.

You can find more tips and tricks for successful printing here.

Can I use it in a presentation?

Probably, but let's talk first! Permission to use in a presentation is granted on a case by case basis, and if used in a professional context usually requires a small fee to help keep my work sustainable.

Fill out this form with the details of your requested use and I'll get back with you. Often, especially for academic use, there is no charge- but permission is still required.

custom republishing license is required to use my art beyond the context of one-on-one work with direct clients. This includes using illustrations in presentations, trainings, workshops, mailing lists, websites and beyond.

Meet the Artist

 

I’m Lindsay Braman, I use my training as a therapist to hand draw mental health illustrations that make complex mental health concepts more approachable, memorable, and useful.

I doodled my way through a masters degree in Counseling Psychology, and along the way I learned just how many of us are visual learners who flourish when when concepts are made accessible in ways beyond just text and audio.

Learn more about me and my work.

Accessible Mental Health Art

 

My illustrations organize complex information visually, offering another way to learn, process, and communicate.

For many, visual information is accessible information. I make art that helps everyone have access to tools and information they need to care well for themselves and others, make informed decisons, and grow.


From Screen to Paper

 

It's a digital download- but it doesn't have to stay digital!

Often, the same people who benefit from information presented in a visual format may remember a little more when they can touch, hold, and physically interact with the material.

So print it, make notations, hang it up, tuck it into a binder, or keep it somewhere you’ll see it everyday.
