About Iris
Iris Haze is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 30 years of experience. She works with adults who want to manage stress, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship strain, and life changes. Her practice also covers issues like addictions, depression, parenting concerns, and career stress.
She keeps sessions direct and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what small steps can reduce tension. Iris uses clear, goal-focused techniques and listens for patterns that keep problems repeating.
Her approach blends client-centered work with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy. That means she encourages people to describe what they want to change and then tries ideas that can shift thoughts and behavior. Sessions often include talking through recent conflicts, testing new responses, and reflecting on what worked.
With decades of practice in Texas, Iris has worked across many life stages and struggles. She also addresses topics such as blended family issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, and coping with serious illness. Her background includes helping people sort through guilt, shame, isolation, and midlife transitions.
Practical coaching around goals and daily routines is part of her offering alongside therapy. She helps people set manageable steps for things like financial stress, work pressure, and rebuilding intimacy. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's process to match and schedule a first session.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Client-centered therapy focuses on what the client brings to the session. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps a person clarify their goals and values. This approach is useful when someone wants space to talk through feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anger, anxiety, and low mood. CBT can help with everyday problems like workplace frustration and repetitive negative thinking.
Picking the right approach usually comes from trying a few things together. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape the sessions and the exercises between meetings.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm what is offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them focus. Licensed professionals adapt techniques like behavioral experiments and thought records to work in online sessions so progress can continue without needing an in-person visit.
