What Do Clinical Social Workers Do?

"Clinical social workers are highly trained professionals who are skilled at listening to problems clients bring to us and adding new ways of looking at and understanding what is going on. We try to help clients find new solutions, make new choices, and see things from a different point of view. We work with clients until the problem is resolved as well as it can be.

What kinds of problems do people discuss with us?

Work related problems, relationship problems, alcoholism or drug abuse in the family, worries about children or adolescents, sexual problems, difficulties in controlling anger, worries about older parents or their own retirement.
