LSW stands for Licensed Social Worker, which is a title given to social workers who have completed their education and passed the licensing exam. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, which requires additional clinical experience and training in order to provide therapy and counseling services. LCSWs are typically able to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, while LSWs focus more on case management and advocacy roles.
