Clinical Social Work
Clinical Social Work is a specialized field within social work that focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health issues. Clinical social workers are trained to provide therapy and counseling to individuals, families, and groups, helping them cope with emotional, psychological, and social challenges. They often work in settings such as hospitals, schools, and private practices.
These professionals hold advanced degrees, typically a Master's in Social Work (MSW), and are licensed to practice in their respective states. They use various therapeutic techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy, to support clients in achieving their mental health goals.
