About Nancy
Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience. She offers a calm, practical approach that helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. Nancy draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors.
She also uses mindfulness practices to bring attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity. The aim is to connect what matters to daily choices so life feels more purposeful and manageable.
Background and approach
She has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, so she is familiar with varied care needs and how people talk about change. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, achievable steps that fit into busy lives. Coaching-style tools are used when helpful to sharpen career plans or clarify personal values.
Nancy pays attention to how a person’s environment affects their struggles and strengths. That perspective helps identify practical barriers and supports that matter outside the therapy room. Issues she commonly addresses include relationship strain, grief, anger, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and parenting or family stress.
People can expect respectful, straightforward work that centers their priorities. Together clients and Nancy build a plan tailored to goals like better mood, stronger self-love, clearer life purpose, or healthier coping. Taking the first step is acknowledged as brave, and Nancy offers steady support through the process.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered work focuses on listening and on putting your goals first. The therapist follows your lead, helps you set priorities, and adapts techniques to your needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches specific ways to try different responses. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and habits that get in the way of daily life.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with you to choose which approaches fit your goals, preferences, and daily routine. Together you can try strategies, check what helps, and adjust plans as you go so the work stays relevant to your life.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when you want more direct interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easy to check in between sessions or fit brief conversations into a busy day. These options help people keep therapy consistent while balancing family, work, and other responsibilities.
