Shaye Skye, LMFT

Shaye Skye is a licensed therapist in Tennessee with eight years of clinical experience helping individuals and families navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As an LMFT - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - she brings focused training in relational dynamics and individual coping skills to her work, supporting clients who are struggling with self-esteem, motivation, trauma, and career-related concerns.

Shaye emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental approach that invites honest sharing of thoughts and feelings. She works with people to create a comfortable space where difficult topics such as family conflict, attachment wounds, codependency, and body image can be explored and addressed. Her practice also offers support for survivors of sexual assault and abuse, panic symptoms, and those wrestling with guilt, shame, or questions of life purpose.

Beginning therapy can take courage, and Shaye acknowledges that first step while offering practical, strengths-based guidance. She integrates relational, cognitive, and mindfulness-oriented methods to tailor care to each person - helping clients build clarity, better communication, and healthier patterns over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Shaye often draws from Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships affect current patterns of connection and trust. This approach helps people understand attachment needs and build more secure, satisfying bonds with partners and family members.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and meeting clients where they are. This method supports self-discovery, emotional processing, and confidence by prioritizing the client’s perspective and pace.

Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop practical coping strategies for anxiety, panic symptoms, and stress. CBT is action-oriented and often includes skills practice that can be applied between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shaye works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors methods or combines approaches to fit the situation. She frames treatment as a partnership in which the client’s experience guides the plan.

Online therapy with Shaye offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or work while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can adapt care to each client’s needs.
