About Kathryn
Kathryn (Kathy) McCabe is a licensed clinical social worker who combines practical talk therapy with focused relationship work. She uses everyday language and a calm presence to help people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Kathy aims to make sessions feel straightforward and doable for people managing stress, anxiety, grief, or addictive behaviors.
She draws on approaches like the Gottman Method to address patterns that affect how people relate to one another.
Background and approach
She also uses acceptance and commitment techniques and mindfulness to help clients notice what matters and take small steps toward it. Cognitive behavioral ideas are used to shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. Kathy has nine years of clinical experience and brings psychodynamic perspective to explore deeper patterns when helpful.
That background can help with long-standing relationship issues, depression, and trauma-related reactions. She keeps language simple so people can focus on change rather than jargon. Sessions often include concrete exercises, straightforward skill practice, and guided reflection.
Kathy helps people build clearer communication, cope with life changes, and manage mood swings or stress in daily life. She also addresses parenting strain, caregiving stress, and concerns about intimacy and body image. Her training includes a master of social work from Columbia University School of Social Work and a Florida LCSW credential.
Kathy offers therapy in English to adults living in Florida who want a practical, relational approach to feeling better.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Gottman Method ideas focus on patterns of interaction and communication. Online sessions can include guided conversations and exercises that help people notice these patterns, practice new ways of speaking, and rebuild trust or connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes and can be practiced through short exercises during video or text sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and respect for each person's experience. That approach creates space for people to set the pace and goals of their work together.Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the person’s goals, needs, and comfort with online tools. That process may change over time as goals shift and new priorities emerge.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and role practice. Phone sessions work well when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text are helpful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options offer flexibility for people juggling work, parenting, caregiving, or health challenges.
