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 for anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, career decisions, grief, and help coping with life changes. Jill also supports those affected by trauma, emotional abuse, and addiction-related stress.

She uses a direct, conversational style in sessions. Jill listens first, then helps people name the problem and pick practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral ideas are part of her work when thinking patterns keep someone stuck. She also uses client-centered techniques that focus on the person in the room.

Jill often combines mindfulness practices with exploration of personal meaning. That can help with sleeplessness, stress, and managing strong emotions. Jungian and existential ideas appear when people want to examine life purpose, values, or repeating relationship patterns.

She has supported people through divorce, blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness, and codependency concerns. Jill has also worked with those facing job changes and career direction.

In sessions she tends to be interactive and solution-oriented. Conversations move between practical coping skills and deeper reflection. She invites people to try specific strategies and then adjusts the approach based on what helps.

How sessions work

How Jill’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflection, and responding to what matters most to the person. Online sessions can keep that conversational feel while helping someone clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and then tests small changes. Online sessions can be useful for learning specific coping tools, planning experiments, and reviewing how those steps worked.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try. That choice is made together and can change over time as progress and challenges emerge.

The practical benefit of online sessions is fitting therapy into a busy life. Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online meetings can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, or join from a quieter spot when that is helpful. They also let people bring notes or worksheets into the session. Licensed professionals will work with each person to keep sessions focused on achievable steps and follow-up between meetings.
