About Trina
Trina Kroening-Skime is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Trina speaks English and works with adults who want practical help for emotional problems that interfere with daily life.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people develop coping skills and reduce symptoms. Sessions emphasize clear goals, step-by-step strategies, and real-world problem solving. Trina aims to help clients identify patterns that get in the way and try options that fit their life.
Trina pays attention to how past experiences affect current behavior. She helps people process traumatic memories and manage strong emotions like anger and shame. For people dealing with substance use, she focuses on practical ways to reduce harm and regain control.
Her work also addresses personality and mood concerns such as avoidant or antisocial traits, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress. She helps people recognize unhelpful relationship patterns including codependency and commitment issues and practice different ways of relating.
Sessions typically center on straightforward discussion, behavior changes, and building coping skills people can use between meetings. Trina encourages small, manageable steps and tracks progress over time. To start, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online intake steps.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Trina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in straightforward ways. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioral strategies target routines and actions that support recovery from substance use and build stability in daily life. Brief exposure and processing methods help people work through trauma memories and reduce their emotional charge.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review concerns, goals, and preferences together and pick techniques that fit the situation. This is a collaborative process that may change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. When formats are available, they can support regular practice of skills between sessions and make it simpler to keep appointments around work or family obligations.
