Hi! My name is Iris Haze. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Texas. I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin and have been practicing as a therapist for about 30 years. Congratulations on deciding to take time out to take care of you! I truly find it rewarding when I can work with my clients to help them overcome challenges relating to anxiety, depression, and anger.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I know that starting therapy can be frightening, and I really work hard to create a safe and comfortable space during that first session. I find that clients respond well to my laid back, yet professional style, which helps them to relax, overcoming any fears of therapy that they may have had. After introducing ourselves to each other, I gather information about reasons for seeking therapy at this time. Then, I formulate a plan that will serve as a roadmap for our future sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My ability to connect and communicate with people of different ages and backgrounds is definitely a part of my strong suit. I have been working in some capacity as a therapist for the past 30 years, and over the years I have received a great deal of feed back on how easy I am to talk to; therefore, clients feel comfortable expressing their innermost thoughts and feelings to me. Within these 30 years, I have utilized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy intervention and successfully have been able to help many clients find an improved quality of life.
