About Lorine
Lorine Kean-Vaughn is an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) practicing in Michigan with three years of listed experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem problems, ADHD, and related challenges.
She uses straightforward, person-centered conversation to learn what matters to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings. Lorine draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns in thoughts and behavior. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help with moment-to-moment coping and solution-focused strategies to identify immediate goals.
Her background includes work in mental health and substance use settings. That experience informs her approach to dual diagnosis and mood-related concerns. Lorine aims to treat people with dignity and respect and to support steady, paced change rather than quick fixes.
In sessions she often combines brief skills practice with problem-solving. For anger and relationship strains she helps people notice triggers, try different responses, and set clearer boundaries. For depression or anxiety she works on small daily changes that shift mood and routine.
Clients can expect direct conversation, occasional skill practice, and planning between visits. She helps people clarify next steps and track progress over time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to practice new responses between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ground attention in the present moment; these practices can be guided in a session and then repeated alone throughout the day.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process can mean combining CBT-style skill work with mindfulness practice and solution-focused steps to address immediate concerns like anger or sleep disruptions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt exercises so they work well in a remote setting, helping clients practice skills between appointments while keeping the work practical and goal-oriented.
