About Iris

Iris Guenther uses client-centred and evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She writes plainly and listens closely so people feel heard. Iris draws on practical tools alongside reflective conversation to support change.

She has four years of professional experience and works from the United Kingdom. Iris focuses on everyday worries such as sleep problems, anger, and career stress. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, and challenges linked to self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

Her practice includes work around trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, and intimacy-related issues. Iris pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when they affect how people relate to others. She also supports those coping with panic attacks, social anxiety, and ADHD-related struggles.

Iris uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mindfulness and attachment-based ideas. Sessions mix practical exercises, thought work and space to reflect. The aim is to find manageable steps that fit each person’s life.

She offers sessions in English, French and German. People meet by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are arranged from there.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts without getting stuck and to commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for persistent anxiety, stress and when people want clearer direction in life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and short experiments to reduce panic, social anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections. This approach can help when abandonment or attachment issues affect intimacy, trust or family interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques and adjust methods to fit the client’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps pick which tools are most useful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work and family life. Video calls suit deeper conversation and exercises, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. Many people find that the range of formats increases flexibility and keeps therapy practical for day-to-day life.
