What is the difference between a counselor, a social worker and a psychologist?

Each holds a different Washington license, and the state's lookup shows which one a person holds. Social workers are trained in clinical social work, mental health counselors in counseling, family therapists in couples and family therapy, and psychologists hold a doctorate in psychology. Washington's independent clinical social worker license is the one that carries the letters LICSW.

Where does the list of Washington therapists come from?

It comes from the Washington State Department of Health's open credential data , which the department refreshes every day, and from the federal NPI registry. A person is listed only when both records show the same license number and the same name.
