About Nancy
Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and related concerns. She emphasizes respect and compassion in her work and aims to help people reconnect with what matters to them.
She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative - she listens first, then helps set small goals that match a person’s life and values. That can include improving self-esteem, managing compassion fatigue, or finding clearer career and life-purpose direction. Nancy has experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, which shaped a flexible approach to client needs.
She helps people who feel stuck by breaking problems down into manageable steps. For someone coping with major life changes or grief, she offers focused support and practical strategies to move forward. Her work also includes coaching-style conversations for motivation, relationship concerns, and career choices.
She brings mindfulness practices into sessions to reduce reactivity and build awareness. People often leave with clear, achievable actions to try between meetings. Nancy believes change takes courage and that most people already have strengths to build on.
Together with each person she creates a plan tailored to specific goals, whether that means improving mood, managing ADHD-related challenges, or exploring self-love and purpose.

How Nancy blends approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps identify priorities and strengths that matter in everyday life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches simple experiments and practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and improve mood by changing unhelpful patterns.
Mindfulness therapy adds short attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and notice emotions before they take over. This can make it easier to try new responses to stress and relationship triggers.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels doable, then together they will choose approaches to try. That collaborative process can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, ongoing coaching, or times when writing feels easier. These options make it possible to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel commitments.
