Social worker won’t leave me alone, they’re not helping and keep coming around, what do I do?

I’ve been seeing this social worker for a few months now. I originally started seeing her for mental health reasons, but I no longer need it. I didn’t get along with her the first time we met, but I stuck with it in hopes I would start to like her.
Anyways, I’ve been doing a lot better so when I saw her I told her I no longer want to see her. Compared to the last few psychologists and social workers i’ve seen, she literally talks about the most useless things.
She said she’s still going to call me and come around each week. What do I do? She is not helping.

As others have said ask for your case to be closed If she won’t listen ask for her managers contact details Id be surprised if she won’t close you as services are so stretched

Just block her and don’t answer the door.

That’s just asking for a safe and well police check to be instigated.

Well that’s fine. They can tell the Police they are ok.

Say I no longer require your services, therefore aim discharging you. Thank you for your help and I will call SS to confirm my decision.

Call social services and tell them that you no longer wish to engage with the service, or else they will bother you indefinitely.

I agree
As long as they got involved voluntarily, they should be fine with no longer visiting

Exactly, should have mentioned this! Providing it was voluntary and you're not a risk to yourself then you can be discharged no problem.
