I am new to school social work, and the only one in my district. I am assisting the district in creating a SSW protocol and would love any recommendations for documentation at the middle school level.
Through my associate’s internships and now my internship program for my bachelor’s program I have been selecting sites with populations that are completely different. I’m glad that I haven’t been making a mistake here by broadening my exposure versus focusing my skills. I also feel like I haven’t found my exact area. I would really like to work in a school or upper education university setting that supports students.
Are there any challenges with the draft party? I can imagine that staff selecting which students to choose and which to avoid could lend to some awkward or uncomfortable moments. I know it's 'behind closed doors' if you will, but I would hate to leave these kids in a position where they are being discussed by name by their teachers in a transactional sort of way. Am I overthinking? Anyways, I do think it sounds like a fun attendance competition. Thank you for the suggestion and I'm curious to hear your response
As someone who does jiu jitsu, I resonate with the delay of private practice. Jumping right into private practice, I imagine, would be akin to trying to open a jiu jitsu gym as a blue belt. The blue belt literally only has two years of jiu jitsu experience, similarly to someone who studies under a supervisor for two years in regard to lcsw related activities.
Thank you for this. I am a social worker for a nonprofit legal firm and work with clients in various of immigration cases; families in the community and clients who are detained with immigration. I have been doing this for some years now and I have felt tired more this year. I am noticing how I carry the trauma with me and it is affecting my health... this to say that this came at a perfect time. I appreciate you.
I am so excited to become a social worker! I have maybe 2 more years to go as I am finishing out my undergrad degree next year in Integrative Professional Studies! Great video!
Finally, a real description of a school social worker. School, Home, Community..... I am seeing SSWers move away from the home and community part and sitting in schools just counseling and doing group work. Parents have 80 percent of their time with the kids and schools only 10 percent.
Thank you for all of the information ! I am a new subscriber. I will be starting at a community college starting in october and then transferring to a university to finish my social work degree ! My dream is to be a LCSW!
I have my associates in Human Services & am currently majoring in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice. Originally I thought I was leaning towards Child Psychologist or school Psychologist or Counselor but never 100% sold on it. However halfway through my bachelor's & I realize that I should have majored in Sociology but & this point I'm not starting over. It took me forever to settle on something but now know that I want to bea school Social Worker & will eventually go on to get a masters in school social work. My goal on top of school social work is I want to own my own Academic Center that doubles as a Campground
Good morning! I am a QBHP (qualified behavioral health provider) for a mental health clinic in my area. I believe what I do is similar to a social work, however I do not do any home visits. Can you share what therapeutic approach you use in your work and any other suggestions for interventions?
I have a bachelors in business just finished it this month. Wanted to know the first license to get cause I would like to get my masters in social work.
I work as a hospital social worker but my passion lies in school social work. I want to transition into school social work but the fact that it doesn’t offer clinical supervision makes me hesitant. I thought about getting a per diem therapist job on the side while I do school social work to start getting clinical hours. But I wonder if that would be too much on my plate 😕
