About Skytina

Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones is a licensed mental health counselor with two decades of clinical experience. She practices as an LMHC and LCPC and offers care from Idaho while also working with international clients. She focuses on concerns such as addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and bipolar-related issues. She believes people bring strengths that help guide change and she supports them as they take steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Dr. Felder-Jones centers sessions on listening closely and helping people use their own values to move forward. She prefers simple, practical tools alongside open conversation. Sessions look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and what small changes can reduce distress. The therapist aims to make the work feel collaborative rather than prescriptive.

Her background includes two decades of clinical practice across settings that addressed trauma, attachment concerns, and addiction. That experience informs how she helps people manage overwhelming emotions and rebuild trusted connections. She draws on approaches that focus on present-moment choices and on how relationships shape coping patterns.

People who find her approach helpful often want direct, skills-based work paired with space to talk about painful history. She supports parents struggling with stress and role strain and helps people sort through commitment and relationship conflicts. She also addresses co-occurring challenges like chronic illness, caregiver stress, and body image concerns.

Dr. Felder-Jones offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling follows based on availability.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values. It helps with persistent stress, addictive patterns, and decisions that feel stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions, which can be useful for relationship problems and trauma-related mistrust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, identifies unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and introduces practical exercises to change them, which often helps with mood swings, anxiety, and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Plans may blend methods so sessions match evolving needs rather than sticking rigidly to a single model.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, live chat can work for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit care into varied schedules and to continue work when life gets busy.
