What is a remote LCSW?

A Remote LCSW is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides mental health services, counseling, and support to clients via telehealth platforms, rather than in a traditional in-person setting. Remote LCSWs use secure video calls, phone calls, or online chat to conduct therapy sessions. This setup allows clients to access professional mental health care from the comfort of their own homes, making services more accessible and convenient. Remote LCSWs must meet the same licensure and ethical standards as in-person practitioners, and often work with individuals, families, or groups on a range of mental health concerns.
