About Nancy

Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with more than 15 years of professional experience. She combines cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness-informed practices and a client-centered orientation to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

Nancy draws on work in both inpatient and outpatient settings to offer practical tools and compassionate support tailored to each person's situation. Her approach emphasizes identifying and strengthening inner resources that may be obscured by daily pressures, fatigue, or grief.

She also addresses concerns such as relationship and family challenges, career stress, anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and coaching around life purpose and self-love. Nancy partners with clients to develop individualized plans that honor their values and specific goals, helping them move past habits or fears that limit growth.

Clients can expect an empathetic, respectful working relationship focused on problem-solving and personal meaning. Nancy frames therapy as a collaborative process and supports clients through practical steps toward greater contentment and purpose.

Combining evidence-based approaches with online flexibility

Many of her sessions draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-centered therapy is also a foundation of her work, creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client's perspective and values guide the pace and goals of care.

Nancy treats choosing a therapeutic approach as a collaborative process. She will work with clients to explore which methods fit their needs and preferences, mixing techniques as appropriate to address immediate concerns and longer-term goals. The plan evolves based on feedback and progress so clients remain involved in shaping treatment.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. These formats can increase accessibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments while still allowing regular, structured contact with a licensed professional focused on practical, goal-oriented work.
