Davida Vaughn, LPC believes that authenticity is where freedom lives. And living authentically is hard. Sure, everyone has a unique kind of hard, but it’s hard all the same. Therapy isn’t about something that's broken. It's about unlocking the authentic person within you. Sans the fake. Absent the forced or ignored. Healed of torn places from past pain or present strife. Therapy is about you, really. At Davida Vaughn, LPC, psychotherapy services for adults provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore and address these common conditions. Through evidence-based therapeutic approaches, Davida works collaboratively with you to understand the underlying causes and develop effective strategies to minimize your symptoms and cope with your concerns. Its therapy, with you in mind.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session will be a relaxed, conversational assessment of your needs and therapeutic goals. We will epxlore potential areas of more formalized assessment and if time permits, conduct that assessment (for diagnostic purposes, as indicated). We will agree upon a treatment plan that aligns with your desires for growth and with your desired therapy outcomes.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am uniquely positioned to help clients who desire a person-centered, nonjudgemental and evidence-based approach to their presenting problems.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Attachment-based
I take a person-centered, humanist approach to therapy with clients. This means that I maintain unconditional positive regard and produce a non-judgmental counseling experience. I also approach couples and individuals with attachment-based methods. Attachment-based means that we can understand our experience of relationships and ourselves based on our unmet emotional needs and how we seek to have those needs met through our interactions with other people.
Christian Counseling
For clients who desire it, I enjoy offering therapeutic services from a Christian perspective. I am trained in Christian theology and formally educated in Christian counseling approaches. This option to incorporate Christianity and religious principles into the counseling session is 100% up to the client. Spirituality as an area of focus is offered to all clients no matter what their religious preferences are, as spirituality cannot be separated from wellness.
Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)
As a specialist in phobias and obsessive - compulsive disorder, exposure and response prevention is the gold standard for treating those conditions. I am highly trained and providing exposure therapy for conditions such as OCD and related conditions, phobias, and health anxiety. I also am trained in prolonged exposure therapy for the treatment of PTSD.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is the most commonly used behavioral therapy approach and is often the preferred method for treating conditions such as depression and anxiety.
