Jacquetta Mcghie , LCSW

Jacquetta Mcghie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports clients with relationship and family concerns, addiction, grief, parenting strains, ADHD, and issues related to intimacy. Jacquetta emphasizes practical steps and steady support for people trying to get through hard moments.

Her approach adapts to each person. She listens first and matches how much guidance someone wants. Some people need direction and clear steps. Others benefit from more open, client-led conversation.

Sessions focus on identifying patterns, learning coping tools, and creating doable goals. She uses approaches rooted in talk therapy and skills work to address mood, behavior, and relationship patterns. Together with clients she untangles painful experiences and figures out what change looks like in daily life.

With 14 years of experience, Jacquetta draws on a range of methods to fit different needs. She values vulnerability and trusts clients to lead the pace of work. The aim is to help people feel more empowered and steady as they move forward.

She works in English and can meet people across borders, offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect someone to the right schedule and format.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. It helps people clarify what matters most to them and feel heard as they make changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and small behavioral steps to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It teaches techniques for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clearer communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then blend methods that fit the person. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy with this practitioner offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity of care.
