Meet Iris Queen
Hello, I’m Iris, licensed clinical social worker and owner of Root-based Healing. With nearly 30 years of experience in human services and behavioral healthcare, I’ve supported individuals, families, organizations, and communities across a range of settings: community mental health, schools, crisis response, residential treatment, nonprofits, and private practice. I’ve also served as a clinician, consultant, supervisor, and educator.
When I’m not supporting individuals in the trauma-responsive care space, I live a full and grounded life. My time is spent FaceTiming with my daughter, preparing plant-based comfort food, enjoying old movies and timeless music, bird watching, exploring beautiful outdoor spaces, participating in community events, and living simply, peacefully, and happily here on Bainbridge Island.
