Does anybody feel that social work has become too clinical/ psychologized over the years?
I feel like now getting a masters in social work more often than not is too focused on training in psychotherapy and behavioral health than anything and its trying to much to become like a clinical psychology field.
As a result I feel like like this has taken away from the primary frameworks of the profession of social work which was based on community engagement, advocacy, case management and things of that nature.
What do you think?
