DR.IRIS TORRES, Ph.D., LPC, NCC
Growing up as a second-generation Latina, mental health was not openly discussed in my home. This sparked my passion of educate my community about its importance. When I noticed a lack of counselors who looked like me and a shortage of bilingual counselors, this pushed me to officially pursue mental health.
As the founder and Clareza Counseling LLC, I offer far more than mental health counseling in Spanish and English. Living and breathing my craft, I pride myself on my warm, compassionate, and relaxed environment, where you come first. Specializing in working with women experiencing anxiety, self-doubt, and difficult life transitions, my underpinning goal entails offering the support that I would like to receive – welcoming with a culturally sensitive spin.
ROSEMARY CRUZ, MA, LPC
My education consists of a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology with a concentration in Hispanic Studies from the University of Michigan-Dearborn and a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Aquinas College. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Michigan where I am skilled in diagnosing and treating clinical mental health disorders. Some of the techniques I have trained in include Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Play Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.
My goal is to provide people with a multiculturally sensitive, non-judgmental, compassionate and safe environment where they can feel heard. I strive to meet people where they are at and help guide them on their path to achieving their mental health goals. My hope is that clients learn and gain new tools to improve coping, relationships, and communication; which will allow them to become their best version.
Specializing in:
At the core of my approach to therapy is a belief that every individual possesses the capacity for growth, resilience, and self-discovery.
I believe in client-led care, bridging the gap between women across the United States and the dedicated support that they deserve. Striking the ideal balance, where a laid-back, relaxed atmosphere meets expert-led bilingual counseling, my goal is to help unlock the ‘you’ that you want to be, where lines of communication are open, your best interests are front-and-center, and a judgment-free zone is the norm – not a luxury.
