Hello, I’m Iris. I’m an integrative counsellor and therapist working with adults who feel overwhelmed, emotionally stretched, or worn down from holding things together. Many people I work with appear to cope on the outside while feeling anxious, unsettled, or stuck beneath the surface. Therapy can offer a place to slow down, feel supported, and begin to make sense of what you’re carrying.
My approach is calm, steady, and down-to-earth. I’m not here to fix you or tell you how to be, but to offer a safe, non-judgemental space where you don’t have to perform or hold things together. Each session is 50 minutes set aside just for you — uninterrupted and focused on your experience.
As an integrative counsellor and therapist, I adapt my work to suit your needs, whether that’s short-term support or longer-term exploration. You don’t need to be in crisis to seek help — sometimes it’s enough to know something doesn’t feel right. We can go at your pace, talking only when you're ready.
