What social workers do

A clinical social worker provides psychotherapy for depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and relationship and family problems, and connects people with practical support — benefits, housing, caregiving, discharge planning. Licensed clinical social workers (LCSW) are one of the largest groups of psychotherapists in the United States; other social workers focus on case management, schools, hospitals or child and family services.

When to see a social worker

For talk therapy — many therapists you would find through an insurer or employee programme are LCSWs — and whenever a health or family situation needs someone who can handle both the emotional side and the system: hospital discharge, a parent's care, a child's school needs, benefits after a diagnosis.

How to choose one in Louisville, KY

Check the licence level (LCSW for independent psychotherapy), ask about specialty and approach, experience with your concern, fees and sliding scale, telehealth, and whether they take your plan or EAP. State social work boards show licence standing. The directory shows the registered specialisation and practice location only.

What the records here can and can't tell you

Clinical social workers who bill Medicare carry Medicare flags; many do not bill Medicare and show only their registry record. The clinical-social-worker directory lists those registered under the clinical taxonomy; school, case-management and other social workers stay on this broader list.

About this data

Every profile on this page is assembled from official U.S. public records — the CMS National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) and Medicare provider files — matched by exact National Provider Identifier. Specialty comes from each clinician's own NUCC taxonomy. A listing reproduces that public record; it is not a rating, an endorsement, a licensure check, or a statement that a clinician is accepting new patients.

How to choose social workers in Louisville, KY

  • 1 Confirm the clinician's licence is current with the Kentucky licensing board for this profession — publication here is not a licensure check.
  • 2 Ask which board or certifying body, if any, certifies the clinician in this specialty, and check it on that body's own lookup.
  • 3 Call the practice to confirm they are accepting new patients and accept your insurance — this directory holds neither.
  • 4 Ask whether telehealth is offered if you'd prefer a remote visit.
  • 5 Ask about language support and accessibility before you book.
