About Trina
Trina Kroening-Skime is a licensed clinical social worker in Wisconsin. She brings three years of clinical experience to helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and anger. Her work focuses on practical steps people can use day to day to feel steadier and more in control.
She keeps sessions direct and compassionate. Trina listens for what matters most and helps people build simple coping tools. That can mean breaking down overwhelming feelings into manageable steps or practicing ways to respond differently to anger and cravings.
Background and approach
Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She collaborates with each person to set clear, achievable goals. Over time she helps people track progress and adjust strategies that aren’t working.
Trina emphasizes respect and cultural awareness in every meeting. She helps people work through guilt, shame, commitment concerns, and relationship patterns such as codependency. She also supports those dealing with personality-related difficulties and mood disorders.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Trina works in English and practices as an LCSW in Wisconsin. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match a person’s goals to the right plan.
What Trina works with
Everything Trina lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Trina's practice.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Trina uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills people can use right away. One common approach helps people learn new ways to manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive reactions; it breaks bigger problems into short, doable steps and teaches breathing and grounding exercises to regain control during heated moments. Another approach concentrates on habits tied to addiction and mood problems, helping people identify triggers, build safer routines, and practice relapse-prevention skills that fit daily life.Choosing the best approach is a team effort. Trina works with each person to understand goals, strengths, and limits, then suggests methods that match those needs. She checks in often and adjusts the plan if something isn’t helping.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people keep momentum between sessions and get brief support without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving routines.
