Olivia Jefferies, L.I.S.W.
Hello!My name is Olivia. I love to help people discover their own innate capacity for change. Think of me as your guide on the way there.
I have years of experience treating people and helping them learn more about themselves along the way. I also have extensive training in experiential approaches, some of which include: a 6-month intensive in the Internal Family Systems approach, a Level One designation in Coherence Therapy, and monthly immersions in Experiential Dynamic therapies, such as AEDP and ISTD.I graduated from the University of Iowa Masters of Social Work Program in 2023. Prior to that, I taught English, creative writing, and publications courses to middle and high school students!It is safe to say that my professional and personal experiences have helped me learn the importance of meeting people from all walks of life with a collaborative and open-hearted spirit.Thank you for being here. I am ready to work with you and see where the path leads us.If you have interest in learning more, email me at [email protected], or call me at (515) 305-3474. I offer a free 20-minute consult conversation where I will be glad to help answer your questions and listen to your thoughts about working together.

I believe we all have what it takes to...
Live as our authentic selves.
Finally transform the patterns at home and work that keep us stuck.
Stop just talking about the issue, and start learning about it from the inside-out.
Connect to all parts of us, even the ones we have wished would disappear.
Come to terms with our past and present, and forge a new future.
What Are Therapy Sessions Like?
I provide an empathic and nonjudgmental stance and work to cultivate a sense of safety for you in our therapy sessions.From our time together, my intention is to help you better understand yourself, including your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations, and how to better interact with these. I can offer guided prompts, experiments, meditative practices, and in-session experiential work, as well as other talk therapy methods. My knowledge base is broad and I use my expertise and training in Coherence Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Experiential Dynamic Therapies, and mentalization-based methods to create a powerful base of techniques that can be collaboratively tailored to you and your unique needs.I feel honored to help you heal from your past and expand your ability to navigate your life now with skill and grace.I work with adults 18+. I have special experience working with clients in the later years of their life who know that it's never too late to learn, grow, and reflect on our lives.Whether you are feeling stuck, find yourself making the same mistakes in your relationships and at work, wonder how your past might have affected you, or have tried therapy before and are skeptical if it could actually work—you are not alone. Many people experience this, and we can figure it out together.
