Why is an Accredited Mental Health Soical Worker?

When seeking mental health support, many people first think of psychologists. However, Accredited Mental Health Social Workers (AMHSWs) offer a comparable level of clinical expertise and therapeutic care.

 

AMHSWs are highly trained professionals who specialise in mental health. In addition to a social work qualification, an AMHSW completes extensive training in areas such as counselling, psychotherapy, and mental health treatment. After acquiring significant clinical experience, they are eligible for accreditation through the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW).

 

This accreditation recognises advanced skills in mental health practice and qualifies AMHSWs to provide services under Medicare, offering clients access to rebates similar to those available when seeing a psychologist.

​

Like psychologists, AMHSWs are trained in a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused therapies. Many also specialise in working with particular populations or issues, such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or relationship difficulties.

 

Accredited Mental Health Social Workers bring a holistic, client-centred approach to care, integrating psychological insight with a deep understanding of social and environmental factors that affect wellbeing. They are an excellent option for individuals seeking high-quality, professional mental health support.
