What I Offer
I offer one‑to‑one sessions for expats navigating the challenges of moving abroad. Whether thats new routines, a sense of loss, search for purpose, reestablishing identity, or the pressures of modern life.
My work is grounded in professional training, lived experience, and research around the challenges that shape the experiences of expats. How we cope, connect, and make sense of ourselves within different countries and cultures.
How it works
My approach
The focus is always on your experience, your autonomy, and your understanding of yourself.
Sessions offer a space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. The work is led by what feels important to you - whether that's something specific or just the pressures of day to day.
My approach is rooted in person‑centred theory: curiosity, respect, and a belief in your capacity to understand yourself. Its an approach that creates a steady, reflective environment where you can make sense of what’s happening in your life without judgement or pressure.
Using this foundation, I work integratively, drawing on psychological theories and behavioural change principles when they’re helpful. This might involve exploring patterns, clarifying what matters to you, or identifying small, meaningful steps that support the direction you want to move in. These ideas aren’t imposed — they emerge from your sense of what feels right for you.
