Conner Poster, BSW, MSW Intern
Pre-Licensed Mental Health Professional
Master’s of Clinical Social Work Intern
I am deeply passionate about supporting both children and adults from all areas of life, providing a comfortable, compassionate, and genuine experience where individuals can be themselves. As a Clinical Social Work Intern, I offer therapy for individuals navigating a variety of mental health circumstances. I incorporate a strong approach of social justice and larger systemic knowledge into my practice.
I care very deeply about the therapeutic relationships with whom I work with. Relationships are the foundation for growth and healing. My mission with each client is to create an environment grounded in kindness, vulnerability, authenticity, and collaboration. I like to meet everyone where they are at, valuing your knowledge of self, and working together to achieve your goals. I support individuals exploring anxiety, OCD, depression, relationships, personal identities, sexuality, trauma, and other areas of mental health. I am especially passionate about working with those who identify as neurodivergent, and/or those with intellectual, developmental disability (particularly autism).
I have worked in a variety of clinical and community settings, including UW- Waisman Center Community TIES program and Madison School and Community Recreation. I have experience providing behavioral consultation, skill building, and therapeutic services. These experiences have emphasized the uniqueness of every person, and the importance of building trust and deep connections. I am committed to learning and growing with you on your wellness journey.
