About Iris

Iris Wilsek is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with two decades of professional experience. She has worked across inpatient and outpatient settings and has spent more than ten years in independent practice, bringing a broad clinical background to her work.

Background and approach

Her experience includes assisting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and a range of other life challenges. Her approach emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person's story, creating a space where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgment.

Iris uses evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies alongside mindfulness and acceptance-based techniques to help clients develop practical skills and new ways of relating to difficult experiences. She also incorporates motivational interviewing and client-centered principles to support change and strengthen personal agency.

Clients seeking help with relationship concerns, grief, addictive behaviors, self-esteem, sleep and eating issues, or neurodiversity-related challenges such as ADHD may find her perspective useful. Iris frames therapy as a process of empowerment and problem-solving, guiding people to clarify values, build coping tools, and move toward more meaningful and sustainable outcomes.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify personal values to guide meaningful action; it can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while exploring change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Iris will work with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time to find what helps most. The intent is to build practical tools while honoring each person’s pace and priorities.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing scheduling flexibility and access from different locations within Florida. These formats allow ongoing therapeutic work around busy schedules and life demands, making it easier to engage in consistent treatment and practice skills between meetings.
