To thrive as an Intake Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), you need a master's degree in social work, LCSW licensure, and expertise in psychosocial assessment and crisis intervention. Familiarity with electronic health record (EHR) systems, intake documentation tools, and risk assessment protocols is typically required.
