HOW WE CAN HELP
Why You Should Work with an International Psychologist
therapy by expat psychologists for expats

We ‘Get’ the Expat Experience

We’ve either lived abroad ourselves or worked closely with people who have. We know what it feels like to juggle new languages, social norms, and the stress of being away from home.
Culturally sensitive therapy for expats, honoring values, identity, and beliefs

Respect for Other Cultures

We understand that culture shapes who you are—your values, beliefs, and how you relate to others. Our approach isn’t “one-size-fits-all,” because we know you have a unique story and experiences.
Support for expat struggles: homesickness, identity, visa issues, and relationships.

Focus on Unique Expat Struggles

Through real-world strategies, we'll help you handle challenges like homesickness and identity questions to visa hurdles while keeping your personal and family relationships strong.
Empathetic expat therapy for loneliness, stress, and emotional overwhelm.

Personal Empathy & Understanding

Living abroad can feel like a rollercoaster. We’ve seen or experienced the highs and lows, so we’re ready to guide you through feelings of loneliness, stress, or overwhelm with empathy that goes beyond textbook knowledge.
Therapeutic support for building belonging, stability, and a sense of home abroad.

Finding a Sense of ‘Home’

Our goal is to help you feel settled and grounded, no matter where you are in the world. When you work with us, you’ll learn how to build a sense of belonging from within, so you can truly enjoy your international journey.

TESTIMONIALS
Happy Words from Clients
“Life abroad can be tricky. Things can go wrong, people that used to be next to you are far away and changes in your life can take place fast. For me, my AntiLoneliness therapist supported me in a very difficult period of my life as an expat when my anxiety and stress was peaking and I was feeling very lonely. I am at a completely different phase now and enjoying my life in a way I couldn't have imagined."
"I've recently joined a new group. I didn't know what to expect but each time I have been, I've noticed that there is a healing 'energy' in the room. People share their stories and situations in a safe way. It's a small intimate group, it feels good to have a window to share with others travelling a similarly difficult journey. Vassia who facilitates holds the group in a very talented way. She gives home exercises that are really causing me to be brave and deepen the process of acceptance."
"I am very happy with my therapy sessions with Alexandra and I have seen a tremendous change in the overall quality of my life and my relationships, mainly due to the work we have done together! After hearing from many friends about their struggles in finding a therapist that they trust and can connect with, I also feel very lucky to have found Alexandra and matched with her so well from the beginning!"
"Before coming to AntiLoneliness, our marriage was on the brink of collapse. Constant arguments, communication breakdowns, and unresolved issues left us feeling hopeless. With the support and expertise of our couples therapist, we learned to communicate effectively, resolve conflicts constructively, and rebuild trust. Now, our relationship is stronger than ever, and we're grateful for the guidance that helped us rediscover love and understanding."
