About Lee-Anne

Lee-Anne Vaughn is a licensed clinical social worker who helps parents and adults who are feeling stuck, stressed, or overwhelmed. She aims to make therapy straightforward and useful. Sessions focus on identifying specific roadblocks and creating clear, manageable steps forward.

She works in Kentucky and offers practical, down-to-earth support for everyday struggles. Vaughn combines self-reflection with action. Conversations look at what gets in the way of daily life and goal progress.

Background and approach

From there she and the client map out ways to navigate or remove those obstacles. This can lead to new insights and small changes that add up over time. Her approach draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered listening.

She also uses mindfulness and motivational techniques when they fit the situation. The choice of method depends on each person’s needs and goals. Vaughn has been practicing for 10 years and holds the LCSW credential.

She works with issues like stress, anxiety, depression, family concerns, grief, addiction, relationship problems, and life transitions. She also supports work around money and career stress when that affects mental health. Sessions are conversational and practical.

A typical meeting reviews recent events, focuses on one or two priorities, and leaves the client with simple exercises or ideas to try between sessions. The tone is warm, direct, and goal-oriented.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people accept what they cannot change and commit to actions that match their values, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical strategies to shift thinking patterns and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers on being heard and understood; the therapist follows the client’s pace and priorities, offering support that respects each person’s experience.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the client’s goals and comfort level. If something isn’t working, adjustments are made together so the work stays relevant and helpful.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls and phone sessions let people meet from home, while live chat and text messaging offer shorter, flexible ways to check in. These options give parents and adults more scheduling flexibility and allow ongoing support between meetings.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
