When I read your question, I thought of a social worker, which I used to have after my parents got divorced to visit my dad, who was kind of crazy. Social workers need to obtain a license or become professionally registered. You can start off with a Bachelor of Social Work degree, and most countries offer a post-graduate degree (master's or doctoral). This is for professional social workers. For lay practitioners or Care Workers you do not hold any professional standing or registration.
Social work with children is child/adolescent therapy. There are three levels of social work: micro (individual & family), mezzo (agency & small groups) and macro (societies, organizations & communitites).
