About Kathryn
Kathryn (Kathy) McCabe is a Florida LCSW with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and anger among many other concerns. Kathy talks directly about what is happening and what the person wants to change.
Kathy uses practical talk therapy to help people manage upsetting emotions and repeated patterns. She combines cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered listening and mindfulness practices. That means sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, testable steps a person can try between meetings.
Her background includes psychodynamic psychotherapy, which she uses to trace back recurring relationship problems and persistent depression or anxiety. She also works with addiction, grief, sleep and eating concerns, and career stress. Kathy mentions trauma work in her training and addresses trauma responses when they appear in sessions.
People can expect direct conversation about feelings, behaviors, and relationships. Kathy aims to make the work concrete - identifying specific triggers, practicing coping skills, and testing different responses. She describes therapy as a place to name patterns and try new ways of responding.
Kathy earned a master of social work from Columbia University School of Social Work. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. The focus is on helping adults handle life stressors, improve relationships, and manage strong emotions like anger.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and values, then choosing actions that align with what matters. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and managing anger by shifting focus toward meaningful actions rather than getting stuck on thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests small changes to reduce unhelpful patterns. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and reactions to difficult relationships. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person's experience through reflective listening and collaboration, which helps people feel heard while they try new coping strategies.The right approach is often discovered together. The therapist will talk through what the person wants to change, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on how those techniques work in real life. That collaborative process helps keep sessions focused and relevant.
Confirm current session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find phone sessions simpler if they prefer not to be on camera, while video can help when working on relationship and communication skills. Ask about the available formats when scheduling to match practical needs.
