About Shaye
Shaye Skye is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with eight years of clinical experience practicing in Tennessee. She focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, self-esteem, and life changes. Shaye aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, nonjudgmental space to begin talking through what feels hard.
She helps people sort through relationship and family concerns by listening closely and asking practical questions. Conversations often focus on communication patterns, boundaries, and how past family experiences affect present choices.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, not full of jargon. Shaye uses narrative ideas to help people reframe their stories and notice how those stories shape feelings and actions. She also draws on attachment-based work to look at how early bonds influence trust and closeness.
Cognitive behavioral ideas are used when people want concrete tools for managing anxiety or panic symptoms. When trauma or abuse is part of someone’s history, Shaye brings careful, paced approaches to reduce overwhelm and build coping skills. She works with people on body image, codependency, guilt, and shame by focusing on small, steady changes that feel doable.
Sessions are meant to fit into busy lives. Shaye supports practical steps you can try between meetings and helps track progress week to week. People who want a personal, compassionate listener who also offers structure tend to find her style helpful.

Online session options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Shaye often draws on Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from a problem and tell their story differently. Narrative work can make it easier to notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of being in relationships and daily life.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds affect trust, closeness, and communication now. That focus can help people understand repeated patterns in relationships and practice small changes to feel more connected. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is added when clients want concrete tools to manage anxiety, panic, or negative thinking through actionable exercises.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Shaye will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which ideas to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video lets people work face to face; phone calls are helpful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text can be a shorter check-in or a way to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other obligations.
