I am credentialed in the United Kingdom with 4 years of professional counselling work experience and 30 years supporting people with mental health.
My counselling style is gentle and relational yet I am happy to question things too.
I am interactive but will also be silent when it feels space for thoughts is needed.
I also have a sense of humour as I feel it is important to be 'real' too.
I have experience in helping people with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief, coping with loss, anger management, motivation, & self esteem.
I also have experience in working creatively, as sometimes, words are not enough.
I am ‘parts’ and trauma aware and understand there are many aspects to our personalities. All parts of you are welcome.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and trust that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. My aim is to be alongside you as we navigate your inner and outer world together.
I can never predict how therapy will work out for anyone, however, I have seen the healing results of a therapeutic relationship.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I aim to make these first steps as easy as I can for you, Please feel free to ask me any questions :-)

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Cheryl McCabe. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I cannot recommend Cheryl enough. From the beginning, she has created a space where I feel completely safe and never judged. She truly listens and makes me feel understood in a way that has been so meaningful. I feel like I have grown so much because of her guidance, compassion and insight and I am so grateful for our sessions and the support that she provides. Highly recommend!
Written on May 21, 2026 after therapy with Cheryl for 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, self esteem, and coping with life changes
