I have a behavior specialist position where I work- it's nonprofit but a great job. The position would be for psychiatric/dd population. Let me know if you are interested

Re: Lmsw - what else can I do?
A lot of it is showing how your skills are transferable.
Would you ever consider case management?
I have a lot of connections in this arena, but it tends to be one of those areas you either love or hate.
You also have to find a good agency in this area who supports their staff and won't take every client with a pulse.
Reddit also has a great social work forum that can help with ideas, although I think a lot of people who post have issues themselves so you need to weed through some of that ;).

can you change departments in the agancy, climb up to supervisor.
I worked for non profit once as well. It can be very draining for no $$
