Hi! I’m Iris Barzen, a German psychologist with clients all around the world.
My passion lies in bridging the gap between coaching science and psychology; developing practical, evidence-based solutions.
I work with clients in English & German, supporting high performers from senior management to C-suite and VP-levels.
I also work with entrepreneurs, developers, and researchers.
My unique approach is science-based, neuro-affirmative, trauma-informed, and rooted in positive psychology.
Relying on over a decade of experience, I support clients on topics like:
“
“Iris listens and invests in your success. Without her, I would not have completed my PhD.”
– N.S., tenured professor
I help driven professionals figure out how to be productive sustainably, without sacrificing their wellbeing.
We do this through in-depth work: Getting to know their unique psychological make-up, neurotype, and tailor-made recommendations to make behavior and lifestyle changes.
The goal? More ease, bigger impact, and waking up with a sense of excitement for their lives.
Have a look at how I approach my work with each unique client in my practice or book a consultation to get an à la carte recommendation right away.
Book a complimentary consultation with Iris. We’ll have a lovely hour to really analyze your situation and if I think I am the right psychologist for you, I will let you know what course of action I recommend.
My style as a psychologist is empathetic and strategic. Read: If you tell me that you didn’t get anything done yesterday, I won’t judge you or tell you to “remember your WHY” and “just be more committed”. Instead, we’ll take a strategic approach, find your procrastination triggers and develop counter habits to increase your productivity day by day.
“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”
- H. Thurman
*Notice how it doesn’t say “the world needs more ambitious people with burnout”
“
The work I have done with Iris has been the most thorough, successful, and lasting self-work that I have ever done.”
