I am James Bernard Ma'at Kynes, an ACPE Psychotherapist, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Clinical Member and Approved Supervisor with AAMFT, and I have been in practice since 1992. I offer a safe environment that invites the seeker of care a place to gain a deeper sense of self-understanding and relief from his/her emotional, social, spiritual, or relationship distress. I offer services for individuals, couples, families, groups, and workplace organizations in hope that a process for healing and transformation with a greater sense of personal clarity can be experienced. I provide my services in-person or remotely.

I have advanced level training in the social sciences and in theology. This training and personal life experiences informs my work. I do not impose my theological views on persons with whom I serve. Rather this integrative approach enhances my ability to be with people where they are and enlightens my understanding of our human complexities and development.

In these very demanding days, the high levels of anxiety and fears are overwhelming. The sense of uncertainties has elevated the stress levels and contributes to an increased emotional, relational and spiritual health decline in the mind, body and spirits of many. Notwithstanding, I take delight in creating a holding space where people can simply-BE human!
