About Lorine

Lorine Kean-Vaughn is an LMSW based in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and mood concerns.

She also supports people dealing with life changes, isolation, and questions about purpose and intimacy.

Her style is direct and compassionate. She aims to meet people where they are and move at a pace that feels manageable. Sessions focus on practical steps, talking through patterns, and finding small changes that make daily life easier.

Lorine uses Trauma-Focused Therapy as part of her work when trauma and abuse are involved. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people reorganize thoughts, build coping skills, and set achievable goals.

With three years listed experience as an LMSW, she brings hands-on practice in mental health and substance use concerns. Her approach emphasizes dignity and respect, and she encourages clients to set the pace for their progress.

She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, people should confirm current session formats and scheduling options. To get started, clients follow the platform process to match and schedule according to availability.

How Trauma-Focused and CBT Work Online

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process past harm by building safety, slowing down difficult memories, and working through reactions step by step. It can be useful for those who keep reliving upsetting events or who want practical ways to feel more grounded in daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns and includes clear exercises people can use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorine will collaborate with each person to choose methods that suit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean starting with grounding and coping skills, then adding problem-focused exercises as comfort and trust grow.

Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow quicker check-ins on tough days, and reduce travel time. They also let people use mindfulness and CBT exercises in real-life settings, so practice happens between meetings and progress can be tracked over time.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
