About Jill

Jill McCabe is an experienced licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who brings 25 years of clinical practice to her work.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and parenting challenges, addiction concerns, sleep difficulties, career transitions, and life changes including divorce and blended family dynamics. Jill also supports those affected by trauma and abuse and offers guidance around compassion fatigue and ADHD-related struggles.

Her therapeutic manner is warm, interactive, and respectful, with an emphasis on tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s circumstances. Jill combines client-centered care with evidence-informed tools such as cognitive behavioral techniques, existential reflections, Jungian ideas, and mindfulness practices to address both immediate coping needs and longer-term meaning-making.

She has worked with people across the lifespan and brings particular experience assisting family members coping with a loved one’s serious mental health or substance use issues. Jill approaches therapy without stigmatizing labels and aims to create a collaborative space where clients’ strengths and goals guide the work.

She integrates practical strategies with deeper exploration so clients can build resilience, clarify priorities, and move toward sustainable change.

Integrating thoughtful approaches into online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes active listening and collaboration, putting a client's values and goals at the center of each session so work focuses on what matters most to them; it can be helpful for relationship issues, life transitions, and building coping resources. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) uses structured techniques to identify and modify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental noticing of thoughts and sensations, which supports emotion regulation and reduces reactivity in the face of difficult feelings.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist collaborates with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then adjusts methods over time so the plan remains relevant and effective. Clients and therapist work together to determine whether more skills-based, exploratory, or integrative work will best support progress.

Online sessions using video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between meetings. These formats expand access and flexibility, allowing licensed professionals to use CBT exercises, client-centered dialogue, and mindfulness practices in ways that suit each person's life and learning style.
