Biography

Life is full of complexity and meaning. As a therapist, Iris offers clients a supportive and reflective space to navigate life transitions, relationship dynamics, and the pursuit of deeper self-understanding. Their clinical approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, humor, and curiosity, and they work with individuals from diverse backgrounds—always honoring each person’s unique story and strengths.

Iris has a particular passion for supporting parents of neurodivergent children. They understand that parenting in this context can bring both immense joy and distinct challenges, from processing a new diagnosis to managing the emotional and logistical demands of daily life. In their work, Iris strives to create a space where parents feel heard, supported, and empowered, offering both compassion and practical strategies to help them build resilience and reconnect with their own needs.

Before entering the field of therapy, Iris spent several years working with children and adults in creative and educational environments—experiences that deeply shaped their therapeutic style. They bring a narrative lens to their work, alongside psychoeducation and a person-centered approach, helping clients explore their experiences, shift limiting beliefs, and move toward goals that feel meaningful and authentic.

What people are saying:

“I can’t say enough good things about Clear Behavioral Health. The care that I received was exceptional. The staff are very professional and committed to providing outstanding treatment. They go out of their way to cultivate an atmosphere of compassion, awareness, and recovery.”

Ian D.

“The multi-pronged approach; the counselors, individual therapy, nutrition, sympathetic/empathetic counselors of each group session shifted my brain paths. You are never finished there, even when you “graduate”, they hold alumni group sessions when you feel you need it. I have nothing but gratitude for their program.”

Marci B.

“Clear Behavioral Health is my second family that I never knew I had that supported me and continues to passionately support the sober community. The therapists, counselors and group facilitators have been amazing in helping me have a voice, loving myself again, and seeing the world in a new light. I am eternally grateful.”

Liz R.

“From the get go, the staff made me feel welcome and were all very friendly. My therapist and case manager were also very helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. I found that the somatic therapy was the most valuable for me, the therapist who ran those groups was great. My biggest takeaway from treatment was to take the time to pause, not be afraid to ask for help, and not worry about things in the moment. If you are looking for meaningful change and being part of a new and supportive community, then Clear Behavioral Health is the right fit.”

Lina A., 19 | Dual-Diagnosis

“Overall I loved the experience and did not want to leave. The staff was very helpful and motivated me to stay even when I felt like running away. I also built meaningful connections with my therapist and case manager who gave me a lot of useful advice and are still supporting me today. Since leaving, my family and sponsor have noticed a big difference, and I could not recommend a more supportive environment for addiction and mental health treatment, Clear saved my life.”

Emily B., 27 | Detox
