Iris Tanton

Iris Tanton is a licensed psychotherapist in Florida with six years of professional experience across diverse clinical settings. She is a first-generation Latin woman raised in the United States who also lived for many years as an expat in Spain, a background that informs her culturally aware approach to care.

While living in Europe she studied Culinary Arts and trained as a chef specializing in healthy cooking, which contributed to an integrative approach to wellness and holistic healing that considers the connection between mind, body, and spirit. She holds certification in Biofeedback and Culinary Health Coaching and has completed specialization in Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy for both preparation and integration work.

As a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC MH19794), Iris combines evidence-based methods with trauma-informed interventions. Her approach is grounded in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-aware practices such as Compassionate Inquiry and Parts Work.

She works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, parenting and family concerns, eating issues, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes, including psychedelic integration needs. Iris provides a reflective, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings, identify unhelpful patterns, and uncover insights that support moving forward and creating a more meaningful personal narrative.

Outside of her clinical work she is a mother of three young adults and has been married for more than 25 years, experiences that also shape her empathetic and pragmatic view of family and life transitions.
