Kryse Skye, LCSW

Kryse Skye is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 19 years of experience based in Maine. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the effects of trauma. She also supports people dealing with caregiving burden, aging and geriatric issues, chronic illness, and end-of-life concerns.

Her background includes work in a mental health agency and a hospital outpatient program, followed by many years in private practice. She has worked with a wide age range of clients, from young children to older adults. Her approach reflects long experience with trauma and its impact on daily life.

In sessions she uses practical, hands-on methods to help people calm their bodies, manage overwhelming memories, and find steps that move them forward. Her methods include mindfulness, somatic work that focuses on body sensations, solution-focused strategies to set small goals, and hypnotherapy techniques when appropriate.

Kryse values straightforward conversation and concrete tools people can try between sessions. She draws on years of clinical work to adapt strategies to each person’s situation and pace. Outside of work she enjoys time with family, reading, cooking, music, and paddle boarding.

To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, so scheduling and cost vary with location and timing.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Hypnotherapy is a guided, focused process that can help with anxiety, sleep issues, and certain patterns of behavior by using calming suggestions and imagery to support change. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus; it can be used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Somatic Therapy works with body sensations and movement to help people who feel stuck by physical reactions to stress or trauma.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then try methods that match what the person needs. Adjustments are made over time so that techniques feel useful and manageable in everyday life.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice mindfulness or somatic skills in their normal routines so therapy can connect more directly to daily life.
