About Jacquetta

Jacquetta Mcghie is an LCSW based in New York who supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, addictions, and other life transitions.

Background and approach

With 14 years of clinical experience, she draws on a broad set of tools to help clients manage emotions like anger, build self-esteem, and cope with changes related to parenting, career shifts, or chronic health concerns. She also addresses issues tied to family history such as adoption and fatherhood dynamics.

Her approach centers on meeting each person where they are and creating a collaborative therapeutic relationship. Jacquetta balances gentle guidance with practical interventions, helping clients unpack complicated feelings while encouraging vulnerability and self-direction.

She integrates client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques to work toward greater stability, empowerment, and clearer decision making. Clients can expect a practitioner who emphasizes trust and partnership throughout the process.

Whether the focus is on coping skills, communication problems, healing from past wounds, or navigating substance use and recovery, she aims to tailor the work to individual needs and goals while supporting steps toward more fulfilling daily life.

Approaches for Online Care and Practical Skills



Jacquetta commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and creating a supportive relationship so clients feel heard and can explore their goals at their own pace. CBT offers structured strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more balanced thinking, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the best therapeutic approach usually happens together. She collaborates with each client to clarify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as needs and preferences evolve. This collaborative process helps determine whether more directive interventions or a gentler, exploratory stance will be most helpful.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules or for those who prefer remote formats. These formats allow licensed professionals to offer consistent support across time zones and life circumstances, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while working on skills, emotion regulation, and practical problem solving.
