Nancy Vaughn, LCSW

Nancy Vaughn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and anger. She also helps people facing life changes, career questions, and struggles with motivation or compassion fatigue.

Vaughn has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, so she knows how problems show up in different parts of life. Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-informed practices along with Client-Centered ideas. That means sessions focus on practical skills, noticing thought and behavior patterns, and increasing present-moment awareness.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process. Together the client and therapist identify strengths already present and use those as a starting point. The work often involves making small, achievable changes to reduce reactivity and improve everyday functioning.

Sessions may include short behavior experiments, thought records, and simple mindfulness exercises. They can also address broader questions like life purpose and self-love when those feel relevant to mood and relationships.

Nancy works to create clear goals and a straightforward plan. She asks questions, listens, and helps people try new ways of responding. The focus is on practical steps that fit into day-to-day life, not on abstract theory.
