Maggie Olivieri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Evanston, Illinois who works with adults seeking meaningful emotional support and lasting change. She works with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional challenges and life transitions—whether adjusting to a new city, coping with job loss, moving through a breakup or divorce, struggling with impulsive behaviors, or longing for deeper connection with friends, family, or partners.
Maggie supports clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, self‑doubt, loneliness, fear of abandonment, anger, hopelessness, or grief, helping them understand what’s getting in the way of feeling grounded, connected, and more at ease in their lives.
She provides Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, a therapeutic approach that helps clients explore the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so they can make intentional, meaningful changes. Maggie is especially attuned to the impact of trauma and works collaboratively with clients to understand how past pain may be informing and shaping present struggles. Together, she helps clients reframe their life stories in ways that foster clarity, compassion, and self‑confidence.
Maggie’s style is interactive, warm, and non‑judgmental, always honoring clients as the experts of their own experiences. Her first priority with every new client is creating a space where they feel safe, understood, and genuinely partnered in the therapeutic process. She offers flexible scheduling and remote sessions to ensure therapy is accessible and supportive of each client’s needs.
