About Nancy
Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Her approach is respectful and down-to-earth, focused on helping clients find what matters to them and reconnect with inner strengths.
She uses practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-informed practices. Sessions emphasize noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying small behavior changes, and building simple daily habits that reduce stress. Nancy also draws on client-centered principles to make space for each person's priorities and values.
Her background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings, which shaped her ability to support people through transitions and intense emotions. She has helped clients navigate grief, career questions, relationship concerns, and burnout-related issues like compassion fatigue. She also offers coaching-style support for finding life purpose and cultivating self-love.
Therapy with her aims to be collaborative and goal-focused. Together with each person she develops a plan that fits their situation and goals, with steps that feel manageable. The emphasis is on gradual change and practical tools rather than quick fixes.
Nancy practices in Florida and provides sessions in English. She encourages those ready to make a change to take the first step and explore whether this approach fits their needs.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's priorities. In online sessions that means the therapist centers what matters to the person and shapes goals around their life and values.Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online work can include making simple action plans, tracking progress, and practicing short exercises between sessions to reduce anxiety or improve mood.
Mindfulness therapy teaches noticing thoughts and sensations without judgment. In remote sessions this often involves short guided practices and learning to bring gentle awareness into daily routines to reduce reactivity and build calm.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Nancy will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit each person's goals, pace, and preferences. That process may shift as progress is made or new needs appear.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow check-ins from a break at work, or permit shorter focused meetings when time is limited. Discussing practical needs during the first conversation helps shape a workable plan.
