Getting to know Irene Ivanac

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or lost amid relationship changes? Family conflict can make day-to-day responsibilities feel like emotional quicksand—impossible to trudge through. Stuck in the eye of the hurricane of grief and feeling as if there’s no way out? The depression and anxiety can be debilitating, and the confusion and panic about which way to turn can be paralyzing. Maybe you’re tired of the stuffy “how does that feel?”-blank-stare therapist sitting across from you. You’ve tried that route, and nothing seems to work. Meet Irene. Irene takes an eclectic approach with her clients, grounded in humor, the body-brain connection, and authenticity. She earned her Master’s in Social Work from the University of Michigan and brings a wealth of knowledge and life experience to the challenges her clients face every day. In addition to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and meditation, Irene uses movement to connect with the body and free the mind from the constraints of traditional therapy. A flow-enthusiast, she engages in activities like hula hooping, fire hooping, and fire eating. Don’t worry—she may not ask you to do those things—but she brings that same vibrant energy to her practice, helping you unlock your potential through therapeutic movement. Irene also combines EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Polyvagal Modalities to support clients in feeling more in tune and integrated with their bodies. Quirky, fun, and outside the box, Irene’s clients report feeling liberated and truly seen after working with her. She approaches treatment from an unconventional perspective—one that’s not only evidence-based but also refreshingly unique and hard to find anywhere else.
