As therapists, we carry a deep commitment to growth, reflection, and holding space for others. That doesn’t stop when we cross borders — but living and working abroad can shift everything: our sense of home, our clinical instincts, even how we see ourselves in the room.

I’ve been there.

When I moved to Paris, I was overwhelmed — not just by the logistics of international practice, but by the isolation that came with it. I went from walking down the hall to consult with a trusted colleague to sitting alone, several time zones away, trying to make sense of new rhythms, new responsibilities, and what it meant to still “do good work” in this new context.

I had to navigate licensure, legality, and ethics across borders — all while wondering if I was still “doing it right.” I missed peer connection. I missed feeling seen and understood by colleagues who shared similar lived experiences.

But over time, something else emerged:
Living and working abroad challenged my clinical identity in expansive ways. It pushed me to question norms I took for granted, learn from perspectives outside my training, and develop a deeper tolerance for nuance. I’ve become more intentional, more flexible, and more willing to think — and practice — outside the box.

This consultation space is for therapists who are living and working internationally, whether you're just starting out or have been abroad for years. A space where you don’t have to explain what it’s like to be far from home while still showing up for others.

Together, we’ll:

• Reflect on your evolving clinical voice, values, and professional identity

• Connect with others navigating similar terrain

• Normalize the complexity of living and working in two (or more) worlds

• Reclaim a sense of community, clarity, and support

Whether you’re settling in or still sorting through the pieces, this is a space for grounding, reflection, and connection. You’re not alone.

Let’s hold space for what’s hard, honor what’s emerging, and build something steady — together.
