Step-by-Step: How working with me helps people living abroad

Therapy can help you make sense of what you’re carrying, and how to hold it differently.

Free - discovery call

If you’d like, we can start with a free 20-minute call.

This is simply a chance to meet, ask any questions, and get a feel for whether working together feels right for you.

There’s no pressure, just an option if you’d like to connect before booking a session.

Initial session

We’ll begin with a 50-minute session to explore where you’re at right now.

This first session offers space to reflect on what’s been feeling heavy, confusing, or unclear.

We’ll also talk about what you’re hoping to get out of therapy, even if you're not quite sure yet.

Ongoing session

After the first session, we’ll continue with 50-minute online sessions, from wherever you are in the world.

Most clients choose to meet weekly, but we can find a pace that suits your needs.

Together, we make space for the deeper stuff, while also exploring tools and kind changes that can make things feel more manageable day to day.

What is CBT?

CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a practical, evidence-based approach that looks at how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are all connected.

It’s not about “thinking positive” or fixing yourself.

Often, when something feels off or overwhelming, it’s not just the situation itself, it’s the patterns we’ve learned to cope with it.

By slowing things down, we can begin to notice those patterns, understand where they come from, and gently shift them, so you feel less stuck, more grounded, and more able to respond in ways that truly support you.

For example:
Imagine you’ve just moved to a new country, and you find yourself thinking:

“I’ll never make friends here. This culture is just too different for me.”

That thought might lead to feelings of anxiety, self-doubt or loneliness, and when those feelings get loud, it’s easy to start avoiding social situations altogether.

Over time, that pattern can leave you feeling even more disconnected, like you don’t belong, even though part of you wants to.

In therapy, we gently slow that pattern down. We look at what’s happening, the situation, the thoughts that arise, how they make you feel, and what you tend to do in response.

From there, we explore small shifts that can help you respond in a way that feels more supportive and true to you.
