About Jill

Jill McCabe is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are stressed, anxious, depressed, or facing major life changes. Many come for help with parenting, relationship strain, career decisions, grief, addiction, or sleep trouble.

Her style is warm and interactive. She focuses on straightforward conversation rather than labels. Sessions are collaborative and aimed at practical steps clients can try between meetings.

Jill combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques. She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas when those perspectives help a person make sense of their experience. Treatment plans are adapted to each person’s needs and goals rather than following a fixed checklist.

She has supported people through trauma, physical injury, emotional abuse, and the stresses that come with caregiving. Jill also has a stated interest in adoption and foster care issues and in helping family members who are affected by a loved one’s mental health or addiction struggles.

Clients can expect direct questions, reflective feedback, and concrete strategies for coping and change. Jill emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while helping people find clearer ways forward.

Approaches that shape online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person as they are and following their lead in sessions; it helps people feel heard and decide what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward skills to change unhelpful patterns like persistent worry or low mood. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice their experience without judgment and can reduce reactivity to stress and strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the person's day-to-day life and adjust the plan as needed in follow-up sessions.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling to appointments. Licensed professionals can use these approaches in remote sessions to teach skills, review homework, and support problem-solving while clients manage work, parenting, and other responsibilities.
