“I am truly grateful for the experience with Jynda. From the very beginning, she created a safe and welcoming space for my son. He typically does not open up to strangers, but her patience, warmth, and genuine attentiveness made all the difference. She listened carefully, validated his feelings, and never rushed him. By the end of the session, he felt comfortable, heard, and eager to return. Seeing him enjoy the experience and open up was incredibly reassuring as a parent. I highly recommend her to any family seeking a compassionate, understanding therapist.”

Getting to know Jynda Charles
Disclaimer: Providers at Canino Psychotherapy focus on therapy services and do not prescribe medication, as they are not psychiatrists.
I believe therapy is most effective when it is grounded in trust, safety, and genuine connection. I strive to create an open, supportive, and affirming space where clients feel comfortable bringing their full selves into the room. I work with adults, children, adolescents, young adults, and families using a trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered approach. My experience includes individual and group therapy, social-emotional skill building, and crisis intervention in both school and clinical settings. I value building strong, collaborative relationships with my clients and meeting them where they are. As a Black,bilingual Haitian Creole-English clinician, I bring cultural awareness, warmth, and authenticity to my work and am deeply committed to helping clients feel seen, supported, and empowered.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Individual clients can expect a warm, supportive, and engaging space where they feel safe and understood. I incorporate play, skill-building, and collaborative problem-solving when working with younger clients. I partner closely with caregivers and families, valuing strong relationships and teamwork to support emotional growth, communication, and long-term success.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In a typical session, I start by checking in on how you’ve been feeling since our last meeting. We then talk about any challenges, thoughts, or emotions you’re experiencing. I usually will end the session by summarizing what we discussed and setting small, achievable goals for the time until we meet again.

This was the first visit with Jynda, she was warm and friendly to myself and my 15 yr old daughter. Jynda asked questions with care and consideration for our feelings, my daughter liked talking to her and is looking forward to future therapy sessions with her.
