About Nancy

Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, grief, and major life changes. Her practice also addresses career concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

She has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings. That background means she has experience with short-term crisis work and longer-term therapy. In sessions she draws on cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness practices, solution-focused techniques, and a client-centered stance.

Nancy talks plainly about strengths and obstacles. She looks at how daily stress and habits interfere with goals like connection, meaning, and contentment. She highlights simple skills and shifts people can try between meetings to ease frustration and reduce reactivity.

When someone struggles to make a change she treats that resistance as part of the work. She helps identify smaller, manageable steps that can loosen stuck patterns. Practical tools and short exercises are mixed with talking and planning so progress can be tracked.

Sessions are collaborative. Together they build a plan that reflects the person's goals and preferences. The emphasis is on usable strategies for anger, relationships, work stress, and deciding what matters most.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered work focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach typically start by identifying goals and priorities so each meeting has clear, usable aims. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anger, anxiety, and low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of triggers; short guided exercises can be used between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted as the work progresses and new priorities emerge.

Confirm the session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, like taking a check-in during a lunch break or using shorter follow-ups when schedules are tight. Some methods lend themselves to brief skills practice or homework that can be done between meetings, which helps carry progress into everyday routines.
