Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jill McCabe uses several therapeutic approaches to address emotional and relational concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist offers empathy and understanding to help clients explore their feelings, strengthen self-awareness, and make meaningful choices. Mindfulness Therapy incorporates present-focused awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and sensations, which can help with stress management, emotional regulation, and coping with painful experiences.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jill McCabe works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as those needs evolve.

Online therapy with Jill can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and those who find remote sessions more accessible. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into life routines and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
