About Iris
Iris Guenther is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to support people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strains. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement. Iris encourages practical steps that fit into everyday life and helps people find what feels most helpful for them.
She also draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment-based ideas. These methods guide short exercises, gentle reflection and practical tasks to tackle worries like panic, social anxiety and low self-esteem. Sessions often focus on noticing patterns and testing small changes outside the session.
Iris has four years of professional experience and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That background informs how she shapes sessions and plans progress with each person.
She works with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, addictions and bipolar-related coping. Additional focus areas include abandonment and attachment issues, panic attacks and social phobia.
Sessions are offered in English, French and German. International clients are not accepted. To begin, people use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.
How Iris uses therapy approaches online
Iris combines client-centred work with focused techniques to help people make small, useful changes. Client-Centred Therapy means the session centres on what matters most to the person, with the counsellor listening and reflecting so people find their own way forward. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses simple exercises to clarify values and to notice unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety and panic. Attachment-Based ideas focus on how past relationships shape current reactions, helping with abandonment worries and closeness difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Iris will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. This is a practical conversation about what feels doable and useful, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in on a lunch break, or avoid travel time. Different approaches translate well to remote sessions through short exercises, text-based reflections between meetings and guided practices that can be tried between appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods so therapy fits everyday life and commitments.
