If this
is you...
-
You live abroad but struggle to find your footing & feel the expat blues
-
You’ve returned after an expatriation & can’t seem to find your place
-
You’ve lost your bearings, your network, your sense of status — and you feel alone.
-
You find it hard to feel at home, here or anywhere else.
-
You’ve come back, yet you’re already thinking about leaving again because it feels “too hard.”
-
You feel misunderstood by the loved ones who stayed behind.
then you're in the right place !
That's me, back in 2017.
I was 27 years old when I left for what was supposed to be six months — months that eventually turned into seven years spent traveling the world and trying on other lives: New Zealand, Norway, Patagonia, Canada.
I experienced the thrill of departure, the adrenaline of arrival, the challenges of integration, the pain of returning, the loss of a loved one from afar, and the constant desire to leave again—over and over..
​​​
In 2024, however, I decided to come home. Despite my mental preparation, the shock was brutal. I felt alone, lost, unable to find my place again in a setting that was supposed to be familiar. It was then, in the middle of my psychotherapy training, that I chose to make this “reverse culture shock” the subject of my thesis. I needed to understand why what I was going through felt so difficult.
What I discovered through my research and personal journey is that this feeling of disconnection is not a dead end, but a profound stage of identity transformation. I came to understand how the loss of reference points, the grieving of expatriate life, and the mismatch with one’s original environment create what I call an “inner exile.”.
Our journey together
Today, drawing on both my expertise and lived experience, I help you transform uncertainty and inner exile into grounding and growth.
Through individual sessions or workshops, we navigate the emotional challenges of transition—grief, loneliness, anxiety—and co-create a life that feels truly yours, so you can feel at home wherever you are.​ Because I truly believe we never fully return “home”—we learn to create our own place in the world, aligned, meaningful, and rooted within ourselves.

Your inner Compass
Over the course of our sessions, you will gain the autonomy, tools, and confidence you need to move forward. You will build your own internal compass, until the day you no longer need our meetings and can navigate life’s transitions on your own. You can, of course, always book a 'tune-up' session whenever you feel the need
Coaching programs
If therapy feels intimidating, there might be a program that’s right for you. Unlike On-Demand Therapy, which is completely flexible and focused on your immediate needs, my coaching programs offer a steady, reassuring framework designed to keep you on track
& progressing over time.
