Kryse Skye , LCSW

Kryse Skye is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 19 years of practice who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, parenting strain, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She works with adults around self-esteem, eating and sleeping problems, career stress, depression, and major life transitions. Kryse also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, caregiver strain, and issues related to aging and end-of-life concerns.

Her approach blends body-centered and mindfulness-based methods with practical problem-solving. She uses somatic work to help people notice what their bodies are holding after stressful events. Mindfulness practices and hypnotherapy are woven into sessions when they fit the client's goals.

Kryse trained and practiced in community mental health and hospital outpatient settings before spending most of her career in private practice in Maine. She holds LCSW credentials in Maine and New Jersey and brings nearly two decades of clinical experience to each session.

In sessions she focuses on small, achievable steps that reduce overwhelm and build coping skills. Solution-focused techniques are used to find what works now and to set clear next steps. Trauma-focused strategies are available for people who need to address past harms and their ongoing effects.

Outside of work she enjoys time with family, reading, music, and outdoor activities like paddle boarding. She prefers plain talk, steady pacing, and practical tools that fit into everyday life.

Approaches you can use online with Kryse

Hypnotherapy in Kryse's work involves guided relaxation and focused attention to help people change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety symptoms. It can be useful for sleep issues, certain eating patterns, and calming high stress reactions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and body sensations without judgment. These practices help with anxiety, stress, rumination, and coping with life changes by building small daily skills.

Somatic Therapy focuses on bodily signals that hold stress or trauma. Through gentle attention to sensations and paced exercises, people learn to release stuck patterns and feel more grounded during triggers.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Kryse will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. She will try brief practices early on and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for fuller conversation and guided practices, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent amid busy lives.
