Getting to know Iris G Santos
Hola, yo soy Iris,
Eleg? esta profesi?n porque, para m?, el amor, la paz y la felicidad son lo m?s importante en cada ser humano. Cuando falta una de esas tres por causa del estr?s, ansiedad, depresi?n o tristeza, la vida puede volverse muy dif?cil de manejar y, a veces, de soportar. Perm?teme ayudarte o buscar ayuda de otro profesional para sanar las emociones que te causan esos sentimientos.
Hi, I am Iris,
I know that engaging in therapy can be scary and overwhelming. It is not easy to open up to a stranger who may or may not truly understand you and have your back. Or maybe this is not your first attempt at therapy, and you feel tired, apprehensive, and scared of beginning again. But aren't you tired of suffering, living life on the edge of not knowing how to deal with the stressors of difficult relationships, lack of trust in yourself and others, and trauma? Therapy is designed to help you heal, learn tools to gain control of your emotions, thoughts, and life. To like yourself for who and what you are-not by the demands of the world or conditioning that dictates how you should feel or act.
I do this job because I sincerely believe that through therapy, I-as well as my colleagues-can help you overcome suffering, trauma, and life's challenges. Most of all, I believe you have the inner power to see that you are worthy of having and creating the life, relationships, and jobs you want. I am not saying it is easy. I am saying it is possible, and you can do it by trusting yourself and your ability to make things happen.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Central Florida, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support you effectively.
I ask that you give me or another therapist the opportunity to help you. I truly believe that when one heals, the whole world is better.
What should a new client know about working with you?
During our first session, we will complete an evaluation and possible treatment plan that best fits your needs. I get to know you and what are the things that are causing your stress and discomfort in your life. You also get to know me and decided if I am a good fit for you.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
