More about Iris

- LMHC
I am a licensed psychotherapist in Florida with 6 years of professional work experience in a variety of settings. I have a multicultural background, raised in the US as a first generation latin woman and also lived abroad as an expat for many years in Spain. While in Europe, I studied Culinary Arts and became a chef specialized in healthy cooking and developed an Integrative approach to Wellness and Holistic healing. My scope encompasses the mind, body, and spirit connection. I am also certified in Biofeedback, Culinary Health Coaching and I have recently completed specialization in Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy for both preparation and integration work. I am a mom of three incredible young adults and have been married for over 25 years.
My education and unique life experience provides an integrative perspective in the therapeutic space that allows for an increased awareness and compassionate stance for all my clients.
I help individuals who are looking for insight into their struggles with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, & trauma. I also have experience working with life transitions and have specialized training in psychedelic psychotherapy integration work. My approach is driven by Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Trauma Informed interventions such as Compassionate Inquiry and Parts Work.
I look to provide a safe space for openness and curiosity where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. We will work together to discover patterns of behavior that are no longer useful to you and uncover insights into how to move forward in your life and write the story that gives you the most meaning.
I am so grateful you have taken this initial step toward a healing journey, let's get started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
