About Jill

Jill McCabe is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people who come in for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, career questions, addictions, grief, sleep problems, ADHD, and help after trauma or abuse.

She has seen clients from many backgrounds and ages. Many seek help for divorce and blended family issues, family strain related to illness or addiction, or major life changes such as career moves and caregiving responsibilities. Jill also supports people facing abandonment, attachment issues, and the emotional effects of chronic illness.

Her practice leans on practical, talk-based methods. She uses client-centered listening alongside cognitive behavioral ideas to look at thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on existential and Jungian perspectives when meaning, identity, or life choices are central concerns.

Sessions are interactive and focused on clear steps to manage symptoms and make changes. Jill often works on coping skills for anxiety and sleep, communication strategies for strained relationships, and plans for recovery from addiction or traumatic experience. She helps with parenting problems and the stress of caregiving too.

People who want straightforward guidance about work, relationships, or feeling lost after big changes may find this approach useful. To begin, clients follow the site's matching process and schedule an initial session to set goals together.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation. Online sessions using this approach center on understanding the client's concerns and setting clear goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses exercises and practical techniques to change unhelpful habits; it works well for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean combining CBT tools with mindfulness practices or drawing on existential ideas when questions about meaning and identity come up. The plan is adjusted as progress is made.

Because the biography does not list session formats, confirm the available online formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, or remove travel time so sessions can happen between work or school commitments. Licensed professionals often use phone or video options, but check what this clinician currently offers when you schedule.
