About Nye
Nye Knowles is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor who helps people dealing with relationship struggles, trauma, intimacy concerns, and low self-esteem. He focuses on practical steps that make daily life feel more manageable. Sessions are meant to be direct and supportive while keeping the client’s goals front and center.
Nye often starts by listening to the story a person brings and noticing patterns that keep causing pain. He uses Narrative Therapy to separate problems from the person, which helps clients see alternatives to old habits.
Background and approach
He also draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to understand how early bonds shape current relationships. In sessions Nye helps people name painful feelings like shame, emptiness, or abandonment and then test small changes. Conversations typically include checking how thoughts and behaviors link, trying different ways of communicating, and practicing new responses between meetings.
He keeps language straightforward and focuses on skills people can use right away. He has nine years of clinical experience and works with concerns that range from dissociation and codependency to sexual health topics such as BDSM and kink. He also supports those coping with first responder stress, fatherhood questions, and problems at work or home.
Nye accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. His practice uses multiple online formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort. Nye aims to help clients build clearer boundaries, stronger self-regard, and more satisfying connections over time.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Online session options
How narrative and attachment work online
Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from the problems they face. Online sessions with this approach focus on telling and revising personal stories so clients can spot repeating patterns and try new ways of relating. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and emotions, and it helps people understand and reshape those patterns in day-to-day connections.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Nye will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may blend narrative techniques, attachment work, and client-centered attention to build a plan that feels doable and relevant.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and real-time feedback. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter setup is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, reflection between sessions, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options support flexible, consistent progress without forcing a single format.
