🌍 Coaching for Expats & International Professionals

From Culture Shock to Confident Success

Living between cultures means continuously re-aligning yourself – personally, professionally and in how you relate to others. This coaching offers space to find orientation, make confident decisions and feel grounded in your new surroundings.

Who it’s for

For expats, returnees and international professionals who want to

  • find their footing in a new environment
  • navigate between cultural expectations
  • strengthen their sense of belonging and inner stability
  • gain deeper insight into German culture - its unspoken rules, nuances and everyday dynamics.

Approach & Background

I am a licensed therapist (Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie) and intercultural coach with over 15 years of experience in international education and cross-cultural coaching.

My approach is calm, reflective and solution-oriented - with an understanding of the inner tensions that can arise when living between cultures.
Mein Zugang ist ruhig, reflektiert und lösungsorientiert – mit Verständnis für die inneren Spannungen, die ein Leben zwischen Kulturen mit sich bringt.

What I offer is not classic coaching. And it’s not traditional therapy either.
It’s a unique blend of methods drawn from:

✔️ intercultural training
✔️ systemic coaching
✔️ narrative therapy
✔️ solution-focused counselling

In other words:

You benefit from intercultural expertise and profound psychological methods.
