About Jill

Jill McCabe is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, practicing in New York with 25 years of experience. She works with people who report anxiety, depression, stress, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and addiction concerns. Jill also supports those facing grief, sleep problems, career questions, and major life changes.

Jill uses clear, practical talk in sessions. She starts by listening to what matters most and then helps people test small steps that can change daily life. Her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness practices to address unhelpful thoughts and increase moment-to-moment coping.

She also brings an interest in attachment and family dynamics when needed. That can mean looking at how past relationships shape current reactions, or helping parents manage blended family or adoption-related stresses. Jill has long experience helping people after trauma, including physical and emotional abuse, and supporting family members affected by a loved one’s addiction.

Sessions look at real-life patterns and specific skills. Conversations may include thought records, behavioral experiments, guided awareness exercises, and practical planning for sleep or stress. Jill avoids labels that feel stigmatizing and focuses on workable changes that fit everyday routines.

People who choose her can expect steady, straightforward support focused on problem-solving and personal meaning. Her background makes her comfortable addressing complex situations such as chronic illness, caregiving strain, codependency, and difficulties that come after separation or divorce.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Jill often draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns so they feel heard; it helps people clarify what matters and build confidence in their own choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to try out different behaviors and ways of thinking, which can reduce anxious patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration means checking in regularly and adjusting techniques if something is not helping.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Many people find online sessions fit into busy schedules, allow quicker check-ins, and make it easier to continue work between appointments. Online work can support practicing CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and focused conversations about relationships and parenting without requiring a long commute. Ask about session length and how the subscription model applies to your location when you schedule.
