Meet Our Practice Owners, Katie & Dominic Maniscarco

Who We Are As Practice Owners:

Guided Hope is a clinician and family owned and operated practice. At the heart of our practice are Katie’s core social work values emphasizing accessibility of mental health care to the community (we will never stop taking insurance- it is something we believe in strongly), and compassionate, competent care. This practice is our family’s full-time work. We are closely involved and maintain daily roles in the support and care of our clients.

Who We Are As Employers:

Katie is the practice owner and clinician with over 20 years of direct clinical social work experience and over 10 years of business ownership experience. She runs group supervision, individually supervises provisionally licensed staff, and is physically present in both offices every week to be accessible, visible, and available to support clinicians while maintaining her own caseload.

Dominic is the Managing Director with over 25 years of business management experience. He keeps the administrative and financial end of the practice running smoothly. Our employees hear from him daily in receipt of administrative and referral support.

Together, we focus on running an ethical, generous, and supportive group practice where clinicians can focus their time and efforts on the care of their clients. Every year we reevaluate and look for more ways we can further compensate or demonstrate appreciation to our talented staff. Our staff are the heart and soul of what we provide to our community!
