About Kryse
Kryse Skye is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, parenting challenges, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She practices in Maine and draws on nearly two decades of clinical experience. Her style is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping people feel steadier in daily life.
Kryse spent much of her career in a mental health agency and a hospital outpatient program before working largely in independent practice.
Background and approach
That varied background means she has supported people through both short-term goals and longer recovery work. She uses approaches that attend to both body sensations and thought patterns. In sessions she blends somatic-informed work with mindfulness and solution-focused strategies.
That combination helps people notice their bodily responses, calm the nervous system, and test small changes that improve day-to-day functioning. Hypnotherapy and trauma-focused methods are also part of her toolkit when those approaches fit a person's needs.
Kryse has worked with a wide range of concerns including grief, chronic pain and illness, caregiver stress, eating and body image issues, anger, dissociation, and end-of-life matters. She describes her work as collaborative and paced to what each person can manage in the moment. Outside of clinical work she enjoys time with family, cooking, reading, music, and paddle boarding.
Those interests inform a relaxed and humane presence in sessions.
How somatic and trauma-informed methods work online
Somatic-informed work helps people notice how stress and emotion show up in the body. In online sessions this might mean guiding attention to breathing, posture, or bodily sensations to reduce overwhelm and increase clarity. Trauma-focused therapy looks at the impact of past events and helps people build safety and coping strategies for reactions that persist today.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple present-moment practices such as grounding and breath awareness to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. These methods can be especially helpful for anxiety, sleep disruption, anger, and chronic stress when practiced consistently between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit those aims. That collaborative process lets people test what feels useful and adjust pacing when needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, practice skills between meetings, and receive support from home or another suitable space. Licensed professionals can use these formats to combine talk, body-focused guidance, and short exercises tailored to each person.
