Online Licensed Clinical Social Workers

321 licensed clinical social workers available online.

There are 321 licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) practicing online. An LCSW is a licensed clinical social worker: someone with a master's degree in social work (MSW) who, after graduating, completed a period of supervised clinical practice and passed a clinical licensing exam. This represents 38% of the 837 total licensed therapists listed online. LCSW is the most common license type among therapists online, ahead of LPC (165) and LMFT (94). Adding 39 LMSW listings, FindSupport's online network has 360 social workers listed in all. LCSWs don't prescribe medication; for that, people usually see a psychiatrist, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, or their primary care doctor. Across all 837 therapists listed online, 1 works with couples and 1 works with children; each LCSW's profile shows which of these they do. These listings give no city because the therapists work online. Therapists can generally see clients online only in states where they're licensed, and the rules vary by state. FindSupport can also suggest therapists online from a short description of what you're going through (your concern, language, insurance, or budget), free of charge.

What is an LCSW?

A Licensed Clinical Social Worker holds a master's degree in social work and has completed the supervised clinical experience their state requires for independent practice. LCSWs diagnose and treat mental health conditions with talk therapy, and their training looks at work, family, housing, and community alongside symptoms. They cannot prescribe medication, so when medication is part of care they usually coordinate with a psychiatrist, nurse practitioner, or primary care doctor.
