How do you become a licensed clinical social worker lcsw in New York?
To become a licensed clinical social worker lcsw in New York, you must earn a Master of Social Work from a CSWE-accredited program, complete the required post-master's supervised clinical hours under an approved supervisor, and pass the ASWB Clinical exam.

New York's large integrated health systems and city-funded mental health programs are among the most consistent sources of full-time LCSW openings in the state.
Which New York cities have the most licensed clinical social worker lcsw jobs?
The New York cities with the most licensed clinical social worker lcsw openings are New York, Brooklyn, and Staten Island. New York City dominates due to the sheer concentration of hospital systems, community mental health centers, and nonprofit behavioral health agencies, while cities like Buffalo and Albany generate consistent demand through regional health networks and state-administered human services programs.
Are there remote licensed clinical social worker lcsw jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most clinical fields allow, since telehealth has expanded significantly for outpatient therapy and counseling. About 68% of licensed clinical social worker lcsw openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, with the majority of those positions focused on individual therapy, case management, and care coordination rather than crisis or in-person clinical work.

The most realistic entry path is pursuing an LCSW-candidate or LMSW-level role while completing your required supervised hours toward full licensure. Large New York employers such as NYC Health + Hospitals and Northwell Health regularly hire new MSW graduates into staff social worker and care coordination roles designed to build toward LCSW licensure. Completing a field placement at a New York hospital, community mental health clinic, or child welfare agency and obtaining your LMSW immediately after graduation gives you a strong competitive edge.
