Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones, LMHC, LCPC

Dr. Skytina Felder-Jones is a licensed mental health counselor who brings 20 years of professional experience to her work. She is licensed as an LMHC and holds an LCPC, and she practices with people who face addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and bipolar challenges. She views each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on during therapy.

Her style is supportive and empowering. She encourages practical steps and honest conversation. Sessions focus on everyday thinking and habits that shape how people cope and relate to others.

Over two decades of work have given her experience with a wide range of concerns, including abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, blended family concerns, and codependency. She also works with people navigating adoption and foster care, aging issues, and sexual expression topics such as BDSM and kink when those come up in therapy.

Dr. Felder-Jones uses several well-known approaches in her clinical work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, attachment-based methods, and client-centered techniques. These methods guide practical tools for changing unhelpful habits and noticing difficult thoughts.

She offers services from Idaho and communicates in English. International clients may be accepted; prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling when they reach out. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their availability.

Approaches that fit the online session

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help people who want to break unhelpful habits and live with more meaning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses simple exercises to test new ways of responding to problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed based on how things are going.

If you are considering online work, confirm the session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when appropriate. Licensed professionals often adapt ACT, CBT, or DBT exercises to work over distance, using straightforward tools and homework that fit everyday life.
