About Me

Iris Beshara, LCSW, SEP

Welcome! I’m Iris Beshara, a bilingual therapist specializing in Somatic Experiencing and EMDR. I am deeply passionate about guiding individuals on their unique healing journeys, helping them reconnect with their inner wisdom and cultivate healthy boundaries. I work with clients to navigate trauma, anxiety, and emotional challenges, offering a compassionate and attuned approach. I believe that through gentle yet profound attunement, we can unlock the needs of both body and spirit, allowing individuals to experience comfort, safety, and a sense of home within themselves—whether for the first time or once again.

My Story

My journey into this field has been profoundly influenced by my own experiences with multiple sclerosis and my quest for holistic healing.

As a mother of two young children—a lively three-year-old and an adventurous seven-year-old—I understand the unique challenges that come with balancing personal and family life. Discovering Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, Internal Family Systems has not only helped me address my own experiences but also revealed the powerful connection between our bodies and our emotional well-being.

Thank you for considering me to be a part of journey. I look forward to supporting you as you embrace your healing process and discover the strength within you.

Training and Experience

I have received extensive training in trauma-informed and evidence-based therapeutic models. I am a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and an Institute-approved Training Assistant. I am also trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trained and certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Additionally, I have training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Multidimensional Grief Therapy (MGT), and am a Circle of Security facilitator. I have specialized training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) through Postpartum Support International.

In addition to my clinical training, I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer and spent two years living and working in the Dominican Republic, an experience that deepened my appreciation for community-based healing and cross-cultural connection.

I am honored to hold space and walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and wholeness.
