Rate Katie Hickok Mannebach

My name is Katie Hickok and I have been working as a social worker for over 11 years. I have my MSW from Grand Valley State University in Michigan where I grew up. I had the opportunity to live in Chicago for a few years as well to get a taste of life in a bigger city. I started out with in foster care where I did a variety of things including therapy, and Supervising both traditional as well as High needs Foster care cases. I have also worked with young adults who were aging out of Foster Care and learning to live independently. I have done traditional outpatient therapy for two years and have found telehealth to be a unique and helpful tool to help clients where they are at. I believe that in order for therapy to be beneficial there needs to be trust built between the therapist and client, but that is my responsibility to help my clients feel safe enough to start to build that trust. I am experienced in helping clients with Trauma, Anxiety, and depression. I also have experience helping clients who may not be experiencing a mental health issue but would like assistance in navigating through a tough phase of life such as death, transition to a new stage in life, or relationship concerns. I believe everybody can benefit from therapy as it is so helpful to have somebody that is just there for the individual as a objective, and well trained support.
