Lorine Kean-Vaughn

Lorine Kean-Vaughn is a LMSW who helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and eating and body-image struggles. She works with adults facing depression, bipolar symptoms, addiction concerns, trauma or relationship strain. Her approach centers on meeting people where they are and moving at a comfortable pace.

Clients can expect straightforward, respectful conversations focused on practical steps. Lorine uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to build attention and grounding skills, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals.

Her background includes work in mental health and substance use settings. That experience shapes a down-to-earth style aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. She frames sessions around clear, achievable actions rather than long lectures.

Lorine emphasizes dignity in the room and listens for each person's priorities. She supports people coping with grief, parenting stress, insomnia, anger, and life changes. Her work also includes attention to multicultural concerns and issues common in young adulthood.

People interested in working together should be prepared to discuss current challenges and set small goals. Conversations often include tracking patterns, trying new coping strategies, and checking progress from week to week.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot thoughts that lead to unhelpful feelings and try small behavior changes to test new outcomes. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and sleep issues.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice the present moment and reduce reactivity. These practices can help with stress, emotional regulation, and grounding after difficult experiences.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what proves helpful in sessions.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking to know what will work best for your schedule and needs. Many people find that remote sessions let them practice skills between meetings and keep momentum toward their goals.
