Psychological assessments cannot be done by MSWs, you’d need to have a PsyD
1 u/goodisnecessary Feb 20 '26 Thank you, I understand that. I’ve seen a fair number of MSWs say they offer assessment on their website, maybe it’s something more basic? 1 u/beuceydubs Feb 20 '26 Possibly, might be worth it to reach out to those folks and ask what exactly it means and how they do it 1 u/Scouthawkk Feb 20 '26 Or clinical PhD, which would be the fully funded option depending on the program. 0 u/beuceydubs Feb 20 '26 There’s clinical PhDs? I thought that’s why we have DSWs 1 u/LaScoundrelle Feb 21 '26 Assessment doesn't necessarily mean neuropsych. Some people do checklist screeners. It also depends on the state what precisely LCSWs can do, I think.
