Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones, LMHC, LCPC

Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones is a licensed mental health counselor with two decades of experience. She works from Idaho and holds LMHC and LCPC credentials. She focuses on practical help for people facing addictions, relationship struggles, trauma, parenting stress, and bipolar-related concerns.

Her approach begins by treating each person as the expert on their own life. She looks for existing strengths to build on and offers steady support while people try out new ways of coping. Sessions aim to be straightforward and respectful of what feels doable for each person.

Dr. Felder-Jones blends several approaches depending on what a client needs. She draws from acceptance-focused work and cognitive-behavioral tools to handle strong thoughts and emotions. She also uses attachment-informed ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Expect a collaborative style that prioritizes clear goals and small, practical steps. Conversations may include skill-building, values clarification, and moments to reflect on patterns that repeat in relationships. The tone is guiding rather than directive.

People often turn to her for help with abandonment worries, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiving strain, body image issues, chronic illness, and codependency. With 20 years of practice, she combines experience with a down-to-earth way of working. International clients can be seen; confirm session options before booking.

How therapy approaches guide remote work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can be helpful for relationship stress, addiction patterns, and low mood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with mood swings, anxiety, and coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting, which can clarify repeating relationship dynamics and parenting concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick or combine methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions adapt as progress is made so techniques can shift toward what helps most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during a work break or between errands. It also lets people maintain continuity of care if they relocate or travel internationally. Discussing scheduling needs and preferred ways to meet is a normal early step, and the therapist will help plan a format that works with everyday routines.
