My name is Shannon Hilliker and I am clinical social worker based in Brooklyn, NY. I earned my social work masters from CUNY Hunter College after having earned my bachelors from CUNY Brooklyn College in Political Science, double minoring in African Studies and Womenโs Studies. With a professional background based in social justice, I came to realize that the best way to be of service to others, is to assist in their healing process, or overall support, so that they can develop the tools necessary to help themselves get out of their own way, and, ultimately, move into a space of living their absolute best life according to their own goals and standards. I have spent the last 10 years working, primarily with justice-involved and incarcerated individuals throughout all the stages of their incarceration and re-entry, but also with college students, high school students (including adults returning to complete their diplomas), youth impacted by the foster care system, and a wide array of individuals during their various stages life. I’ve worked in many different settings with individuals and families who have a variety of personal challenges such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, stress, family problems, trauma, effective communication, achieving goals, and more. My approach is varied as each person is unique, but I tend to use a combination of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness. I have a laid back and supportive style. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with the world. I believe in treating everyone with respect, dignity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in using labels and language that imply stigma or judgement. My goal is to create a safe space where you can be open and honest about your needs and next steps. Iโm looking forward to connecting with you!
