About Skytina
Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones is a Washington-licensed clinician with 20 years of professional experience. She works with adults on addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and bipolar disorder. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Her practice begins by treating the person as the expert on their own life. She listens for strengths and patterns people already use. Then she helps name small, practical steps that can reduce overwhelm at home and in relationships.
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help clients clarify values and take action even when feelings are strong. Attachment-based ideas guide work on trust, boundaries, and recurring relational patterns.
Her style is straightforward and focused on skills people can use between sessions. For parents this might mean routines, clearer communication, or coping tools for stress. For those facing addiction or trauma it can mean safety planning, emotion regulation, and gradual exposure to difficult memories.
Dr. Felder-Jones holds LMHC and LCPC credentials and has worked across clinical settings over two decades. She asks clients to try small changes first, then adjusts approaches based on what helps most. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Dr. Felder-Jones uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values even when strong emotions appear. It is often used for anxiety, chronic stress, and difficulties that recur in family life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and introduces exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. It can help with mood swings, unhelpful thinking, and practical problem solving. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current expectations and trust in others, and it guides work on boundaries and relational patterns that show up at home.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will help you choose methods based on your goals, everyday demands, and how you prefer to work. That selection is collaborative and may change as you try things and notice what helps.
Details about online session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins during breaks, and reduce travel time. Online work can also let a therapist guide behavioral experiments and homework that connect directly to your home environment, while keeping the focus practical and goal oriented.
