Kryse Skye, LCSW - Therapist in Maine

About Kryse

Kryse Skye is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a broad range of emotional and life challenges. She speaks plainly and makes space for parents who feel overwhelmed, worried, or stuck. Sessions are practical and direct, aimed at helping caregivers find steadier routines and clearer ways to respond to stress.

Her work is based in Maine and draws on nearly two decades of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She began her career working in a mental health agency and spent time in a hospital outpatient program before moving into independent practice. That variety of settings shaped the way she approaches problems - with both structure and flexibility. Kryse uses approaches that include mindfulness, somatic techniques, hypnotherapy, solution-focused tools, and trauma-focused methods to address painful experiences and difficult symptoms.

In sessions she helps parents and families notice how stress shows up in the body and in daily interactions. She offers short-term strategies for coping and longer-term ways to build safety and connection at home. She also supports concerns like sleep, eating, anger, and self-esteem with concrete steps clients can try between meetings.

Her background includes working with people across the lifespan, from children to older adults, and she brings 19 years of practice to each case. Kryse values clear, straightforward communication and tailors plans to each family’s needs. Outside of work she enjoys time with family, cooking, reading, music, and paddle boarding.

These personal interests inform a warm, down-to-earth presence in sessions.

How Kryse’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help access thoughts and habits that feel stuck. It can be useful for issues like sleep, anxiety, and changing unhelpful routines. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to notice stress and reduce reactivity; it often helps with anxiety, anger, and repetitive negative thinking.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kryse will talk with each person or family about goals and what feels most comfortable. Together they choose one or a mix of methods and adjust the plan as progress and needs evolve.

Online sessions make these methods more accessible. Video calls let a therapist observe body cues and guide exercises in real time. Phone sessions can be a quieter option for focused conversations. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins and coping prompts between meetings. These options provide flexibility for busy caregivers and accommodate different comfort levels with remote work.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.

Somatic Therapy

Works with what the body is doing - tension, breath, restlessness - as much as with what you say about it. Guided attention to physical sensation can be done from your own space.
