Blue Iris Healing and Counseling PLLC

The world offers endless places of beauty to explore and experience, but the world can also be a place of chaos, anxiety, sadness, and illness. I specialize in supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, chronic illness and/or pain, and medical trauma. I am a compassion-focused therapist who believes that the ability to heal lies within all of us; the therapist and client partner together to facilitate healing within the client. I acknowledge that each individual's needs and experiences are unique to that person, thus treatment interventions and modalities are selected to best meet the needs of the individual.

Holistic is the best term to describe my approach, as I firmly believe in the mind-body connection. I primarily use a combination of the following modalities: CBT, ACT, Narrative, IFS, Mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing. I find the work of supporting another's healing journey to be a beautiful and humbling experience.
