About Ana
Ana Vaughn is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She supports people who are struggling with life changes and those coping with illness, caregiving strain, or isolation. Ana aims to make the first step feel manageable and less overwhelming. She focuses on listening and responding with respect and compassion.
Ana draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and keeps the conversation practical and clear. Sessions center on the client’s goals and daily challenges. She works with each person to shape a plan that fits their needs and pace rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
She pays close attention to emotions like guilt, shame, or difficulty forgiving oneself, and helps people build self-love and confidence over time. For clients affected by cancer, domestic violence, or caregiving stress, Ana addresses both the emotional and practical sides of those experiences.
Ana has five years of professional experience as a California LCSW, and she uses that background to guide supportive, steady care. She values simple, direct conversations that focus on what changes can help now. Taking a step toward better everyday functioning is hard, and she aims to make that step feel supported.
People who choose to work with Ana can expect straightforward feedback, collaborative planning, and attention to how therapy fits into daily life.
