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.
