Social workers - Social workers matters.

Social workers help individuals, families and communities overcome a variety of social and health problems. There are many types of social workers, and the term can be broadly used. Their training and education can vary widely. Most, but not all, have a master's degree in social work.

Not all social workers can be licensed to provide mental health services. They must be clinical social workers with advanced training in psychotherapy. They must have a master of social work (M.S.W.) degree and meet certain training requirements as set by their state, including experience working under supervision to provide mental health and psychotherapy services.

But training alone isn't enough. In order to actually offer psychotherapy, clinical social workers must be licensed by their state, as with psychiatrists, psychologists and nurses. Once licensed, they're designated as a licensed clinical social worker (L.C.S.W.) or licensed independent clinical social worker (L.I.C.S.W). Licensing requirements vary by state.

Clinical social workers may provide therapy in private practice in psychiatric facilities, hospitals, community agencies or other places that offer mental health services. Others may work as case managers and coordinate psychiatric, medical and other services on your behalf. They often work with psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses and vocational therapists — job counselors — to help manage your overall care. Social workers can't prescribe medications or order medical tests as part of your treatment.
