Jorrene Vaughn , LMSW

Jorrene Vaughn is an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) who brings thirty years of clinical experience to her private practice, where she has worked alongside a clinical psychologist.

Her career includes work in a psychiatric hospital, a Veterans Administration hospital, and a Partial Hospital program, as well as outpatient care in private practice. Across these settings she has helped people manage a wide range of emotional concerns, including depression, anxiety, difficulties with trust, shame, and more complex sources of emotional distress.

Her formal training and supervision span interpersonal, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral therapies, and she integrates those perspectives into a client-centered approach. At the heart of her work is the therapeutic relationship - a genuine, present connection she sees as central to healing, a point reinforced by decades of research.

She aims to help individuals gain clarity and direction without prescribing decisions for them, offering guidance while rarely giving direct advice. She welcomes the opportunity to support people seeking thoughtful, experienced care.

Could Online Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help them. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that works best for their schedule and comfort level: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That range of options can make it easier to maintain consistency and fit care into a busy life.

Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and people may switch therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. For many, working with a skilled therapist remotely offers a practical, effective way to access support and work toward their goals.
