On this episode of The Social Work Bubble Podcast, we are joined by Emma Yeager, a recent MSW graduate to dive into her experiences with social work education, gaps in our education, feeling unprepared, and how we can better support social work student interns!

Emma Yeager recently graduated with her Masters of Social Work (MSW) and passed her Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) exam in the state of Texas. She graduated with her Bachelors of Social Work (BSW) from Stephen F. Austin State University in December 2022 and with her MSW, specializing in Direct Practice in Mental Health and Substance Misuse, from the University of Texas-Arlington in May 2024. Having extensive experience with the hospice and state hospital setting through her BSW and MSW internships, she is passionate about furthering the education and understanding of social work, personality disorders, and adoption trauma. She loves connecting with other social workers and empowering those around her to advocate for themselves and others.
