About Dr. Kristen Wynns:
Dr. Kristen Wynns is a child and adolescent psychologist who owns Wynns Family Psychology, a child/adolescent specialty private practice with locations in Cary, N Raleigh, and Greensboro, NC. Her practice has been in the community for over 15 years, and is often recognized as one of the top child/adolescent practices throughout NC. Dr. Wynns is frequently sought out by media as a local expert on psychology and parenting issues for radio shows, T.V. news, magazines like Carolina Parent, and T.V. shows like My Carolina. She was the relationship columnist for a national magazine, All You, and is the author of The No Wimpy Parenting Handbook. “No Wimpy Parenting” coaching services are available to help parents struggling with behavior or discipline problems at home. Dr. Wynns is a frequently invited speaker and guest for podcasts and workshops at schools, churches, and community events.
Through her successful 20+ year career as a psychologist, Dr. Wynns witnessed firsthand how laughter offers emotional, physical, and spiritual pain relief on demand. After decades of using humor in sessions with clients, with her staff (during the toughest of times – i.e., COVID-19), and in her personal life, Dr. Wynns realized there was a natural intersection in her two loves – psychology and humor. She began doing stand-up comedy as “Kiki” in 2022 and had a quick rise to success as audiences responded immediately to her hilarious life observations, high energy, and vulnerability. Kiki now offers humor coaching to help individuals and businesses use humor to increase confidence, battle emotional problems, and improve workplace culture and relations.
Dr. Wynns will help you utilize the power of humor in a completely customized way.
