Dominick Jefferies , LCSW

Dominick Jefferies is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with two decades of experience helping people who want practical change. He focuses on clear goals like reducing anxiety, handling work stress, improving relationships, and building self-esteem. He values straightforward conversation and a positive, motivating tone.

Clients can expect direct, goal-focused sessions that break problems into manageable steps. Dominick leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using simple tools to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Sessions aim to create habits that make daily life easier, not just describe problems.

He often helps people clarify career direction, resolve communication problems, and find a sense of purpose. He frames challenges as decisions people can influence, then works with them to choose different actions. Dominick prefers active collaboration rather than passive advice-giving.

His style is described as motivating and laid back. He encourages positive communication and practical routines that support long-term change. Work in therapy commonly includes skill practice between sessions, such as new ways to handle stress or to speak up at work.

Over twenty years he has supported many adults in Utah who want to take tangible steps toward a better life. The focus is on creating realistic plans and building confidence to follow through. If someone wants a pragmatic, encouraging approach, Dominick centers sessions on what will move them forward.

CBT and practical options for online work

Dominick uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thoughts and actions that keep problems going. CBT focuses on simple exercises and step-by-step behavior changes, which can help with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and workplace issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. He works together with each person to decide which strategies fit their goals and daily life. That collaborative planning includes trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility that many people need. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer session time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for quick reflections, tracking progress, or keeping momentum between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to practice new skills in real life.
