I’m so glad I found your channel! I am a senior graduating with a sociology degree and I’m planning on getting my masters in social work. I hope you keep making these videos... they are a great resource!
Hey, I'm also starting a community on youtube for emerging social workers and folks who are interested in it! Feel free to check out my newest video, I'll be making social worker related content every sunday!
@@nerdoriety if thats still a thing i'd love to know more.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost my login password. I love any help you can give me!
Same here (:
My dads a social worker. he comes home and chills. but when he was learning in school for his masters... its so much sacrifice you take from family and life just to read and write papers. Its tough also to find a job without masters.
I would definitely say getting a masters degree opens up a lot more jobs in the social work field :)
I’m about to be junior in hs and I was getting really scared because I didn't know what I wanted to do and felt like I was running out of time but I feel like this is the right path for me. Thanks
i just finished junior year and for the entire first half i was the same and I realized I really want to be a social worker because it seems like the right path. second half of senior year i started leaning more towards criminal justice and now I’m leaning towards social work again 😂 i always feel like I’m running out of time so I’m not sure what to do. These videos definitely help me. :) I hope you can achieve what you want
@@belle208 I would recommend social work over criminal justice. My sister got her bachelors degree in criminal justice and couldn’t find a job after college. Now she’s in the military.
@@user-eo9to7wd2t okay thank you! i’ve actually finally decided that i would choose social work but thank you for the input
@@belle208 No problem. I didn’t realize that your comment was so long ago lol. I’m currently a junior so I’ve been watching videos to figure out what career I want
Your videos are so helpful it gave me a grasp for my future. I am in a BSW program in NY and this gave me perspective.
Wow I am so so happy to have found your channel. There aren't many resources of fellow social workers who talk about their training and their experiences and this is so invaluable! Thank you so much!
I love your videos they’ve been helpful on my decision to get my masters in social work
Would you be able to make a video about your experience with getting your clinical hours for a LCSW? Thank you, you’re so helpful! :)
Ugh it's so confusing.. should I be a counsellor, a social worker, a therapist.. so much to think about and then the path to get there is even more confusing.
Exactly me too. It’s hard. Idk if I should go to therapy, social work, or teaching
Same here! I'm having the same problem, and all of those careers seem equally viable.
I’m struggling with this too :-(
Hi Cat and to everyone on this comment thread! I hope I can help a little bit: I TOTALLY feel you. It's really confusing and as someone who has a master's I'm STILL confused sometimes! Something I try to do is try to visualize where I see myself in 10 years: where am I working? In a school? A clinic? A hospital? Who am I working with? Children? Adults? Persons struggling with addiction? And what am I doing? Teaching? Giving medicine? Providing therapy? I hope that helps a lot. At the end of the day many mental health fields do intersect! So just because you commit to one doesn't mean that it's the wrong or right one! Best of luck ✨
@@hi.yeonni thank you so much for responding this was actually very helpful!! I’m currently working on getting my bsw and there are so many different paths it is very overwhelming because help is needed everywhere I’m just glad I’m not the only one feeling this way! I just found your channel today and I’ve already watched like 3 videos haha
Wonderful video, thank you so much.
This video was so helpful! 🙌🏽
Hi yeonni!!! I’m really grateful for all the videos you’ve made guiding us with what you know about social work, it’s really helped me reaffirm how much of my passion lies in this line of work. Though if it’s alright could you start captioning your videos for your HoH viewers? I find that listening to your videos can take a lot of strain and repetition on some scenes to understand.
i’m glad i found your channel! i am about to begin my freshman year of college and declared social work as my major. i’m still learning about it, because idk what i’m doing!! i really appreciate the info. :)
Same here😅
I'm blessed I came across your channel. I'm currently on the road in becoming a social worker in California. You can only imagine how much I'm learning from your videos.
Bro quick question I want to be a social worker I also live in California . It seems like you need a master’s to succeed in social work ? My question is do you really need a masters ?
how do you find a school nearby in california that is offering in person classes for msw? or is it better to do msw with online college
I, by the way, am sort of contemplating on whether or not I should definitely pursue a lifelong career as a social worker in the state of California. Of course, I am quite passionate in regards to assisting folks that sadly suffer from a psychological disorder because I was also diagnosed with a mental illness. Obviously, this inevitably caused me to be far more compassionate, caring, as well as devoted in a sense especially for this particular population. I, however, just simply need to finish my bachelor program in Sociology before applying for my master's. It is noteworthy that I officially graduate from my undergraduate this upcoming May of 2021. I, on the other hand, am most certainly proud of such pure dedication.
Thank you for posting!
I graduated 3 years ago with a BA in Sociology. Currently figuring out what route to take for my graduate.
Any idea of careers with the degree?
I am working as a MH social worker in Australia, and its interesting to know the differences in the two countries.
I’m so glad I seeing this because I’m planning on becoming a social worker
Hope it was helpful! Good luck with your research!
Your 👏🏻 style 👏🏻 is bomb! Please make a video about your style and where you shop!
Oh wow thank you!! So sweet!
Really helpful....Thank you💕
I watched this full video thanks a lot for expressing your views I really appreciate it 🙏🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for all the information. I’m actually thinking about going to NYU silver program for social work. I wanted to go the LCSW route. Could you make a video explain how you could get your LCSW pleaseeeeee
Thanks for watching! Sure, that is something I'm actively working on so it would be a great video!
Great video, I'm doing my degree in next year
Thank you!
Thank you you answered my question.
Glad to hear that! 😊
Thanks for the video
I have a bachelors in Sociology and wanted a JD, but I think an MSW would be more fulfilling for me right now. I’m a bit nervous but excited to apply to programs. Crossing my fingers I get accepted to a program.
I start my 2 year prerequisites and criminal justice degree in August. As soon as that is done I am transferring from a 2 year school to a 4 year university to start towards my master in social work in Texas. My goal is to work for CPS
the biggest problem of mine was that i didn't have a clear vision of a social worker as you many times mentioned , so you can't imagine how much you helped me with these videos that you published and i hope you be able to post more videos about it , because i think many people are like me and have note a right information about these filed .i actually don#t have any specific question because basically i don't know that much.
just wanted to ask you to publish more videos about it and kind of update the information as much as its possible for you,
thanx a looooooooooooooooooooooot
this is so helpful
wonderful
Ty for your video!! Are you able to find work abroad?
Can you answer my question, i just dont know that the first college you said taking advanced course and having a year sooner to finish Master degree, did they have the experience to study in other place and do hand-on work like the one who taked 2 years studying ?
can you talk more about micro vs macro sw? im torn between nyu and columbia >.
Thank you for the information. Could you please explain the path to obtain a license to work as a Social worker in the US, if I have a Masters degree in Social work from India? Hoping to hear from you soon.
I am so confused. I graduated from my MSW in NY. And took my LMSW, but now I don’t know where I could get my school social work certificate? Hope you see my comment :)
how do you find a school that is nearby and offers in person classes for a msw?
i hope someone would see this. anyway, i took social work as my course and hopefully i would make the cut. i'm in 12th grade and graduating this year, hopefully. my first choice was psychology but i was not confident enough since they only accept 40-50 students and i decided to choose social work instead since its close to psycholgy in my opinion. i wanted to take msw after graduating then would get my lcsw. is it possible that i can be a therapist after getting my lcsw? please someone answer, thank you!
I wish I was more focused on what I wanted to do in high school, social worker is what I decided I wanted to do right after school. Now I dont know where to start.
do you know if you can do multiple types of social work, like working at a hospital and with children like foster care
Any idea of a career with sociology?
I love how cats always wanna join in when we are busy doing something lmao
❤️❤️
Hi :) i was looking into going back to school. I like social work. The school counselor says i can enter a business administration program around social work..so i guess i wouldnt be an actual social worker. But does that make sense what the counselor said. That i can eventually enter a social work school program by starting off first in business admin??? Thank you
I'm so confused, do I need to study sociology then become a social worker or i can just graduate from high school and directly become a social worker? please someone answer
You need a masters in social working, and your license, to become a social worker.
My one issure is that not all my views follow the code of ethics as far as some poltical and personal views. Do i have to change my views to be a Social Worker? My aim is to work with LGBT youth.
I want to help people but I dont think I have the ability to write a thesis and I cant afford it. Really don't think there should be so many barriers to help people.
How long does it take overall to be a social worker?
In the USA, it take about 4-6 years.
hi is it possible to get master's degree without any background of social science? im an English major.
Yes, it's possible. I've had friends who received their bachelors in STEM and got accepted into social work grad programs. I'm starting a social work youtube community with videos posted every sunday, feel free to join!
Lil Fro on the Go did you start the channel yet for social work?
Hi My name is Yana
I want to be a social worker because I love helping people
So I work as accounting before but I’m suffering because I think it’s selfish
So I think a lot and it takes 2 years and come across social worker as a career and think I want to be one but I study accounting field so I want to ask is it possible to jump into this career?
I need your guidance
Thank you
May you have a good day
You may be able to obtain a job within the field of social/human services but to obtain a license a degree in social work BSW/MSW
do I have to go to college to become a social worker? is there way to build a career around helping others without attending college? very good video thank you!
I don't have the time or money for a master's degree or even an undergraduate degree. I work as a welder but want to help my community full time.
@@jamesfergason4614 same here, well not as a welder but the same idea. I wanna go to college for it but feels like it might be too much.
Do you have to deal with insurance?
If you go into private practice , yes.
itsbritt91 more specifically, if you choose to be an in network provider. Some of us choose to only accept out of pocket as the payment option (out of network) 🤣
I have completed my Bachelor and Master in Sociology from s public university, now I got offer letter from university of Kent my subject is MA Internation Conflict Analysis, after completing my degree , can I start my career as a social worker . Please inform me about social worker
You can work in social/human services
But to be licensed as a social worker you'll need a degree BSW/MSW
@@brianawilliams633 thanks maam
What subject did you study to have Bsw degree
Can I still be a Social Worker if I did bad in High school??
As long as you get thru the college courses and get the degrees, and with some hard work you should be good. HS grades get you get into college but doesn't really matter post school
you're cute
U r so qute.... will you be my teacher? Please🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗💕 i am preparing for msw.... in next july i will adnission in msw in IGNOU.... bydway i am from north east india.... please be my teacher🙄 please please
imagine getting a law degree only to go back and become a social worker lol
Kevin, what's wrong with getting a law degree and going back to become a social worker? Also having a social work degree can supplement a law degree if not enhance it.
@@hi.yeonni i didn’t mean to sound so condescending, i just think law school is a massive investment to make if you’re just gonna throw it away and do something else
Ugh it's so confusing.. should I be a counsellor, a social worker, a therapist.. so much to think about and then the path to get there is even more confusing.
