About Lorine
Lorine Kean-Vaughn is a Licensed Master Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood shifts, addiction issues, and parenting challenges. She offers a calm, respectful presence and meets people where they are. Her approach centers on practical steps that fit daily life.
With three years listed experience as an LMSW, she draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people manage symptoms and build skills.
Background and approach
She also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused techniques when they match a person's needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and small changes that add up over time. Lorine aims to reduce overwhelm and strengthen coping during life transitions.
She listens for what feels most urgent and helps break large problems into manageable parts. That can mean planning small behavior changes, trying new ways to respond to stress, or practicing calming exercises. Common topics she addresses include sleep and eating concerns, parenting stress, grief, self-esteem, anger, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.
She also works with people navigating ADHD symptoms, postpartum depression, isolation, and multicultural concerns. Her style is practical and collaborative. Clients can expect straightforward conversations, goal-setting, and tools to use between sessions.
The emphasis is on realistic steps that fit each person's routine and values.

Online approaches that focus on practical change
Mindfulness therapy helps people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions without judgment. It can reduce reactivity to stress and support better sleep, mood, and focus by teaching short daily practices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. It gives concrete strategies for shifting unhelpful thinking and trying out new behaviors to ease anxiety, depression, and mood swings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, personal preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then try methods that fit. This collaborative process can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text is helpful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel schedules while keeping consistent progress.
