Expats & Internationals
Psychologist for Expats in The Hague and Amsterdam
Relocating to the Netherlands can be exciting — but also emotionally complex.
As a psychologist for expats in The Hague and Amsterdam, I provide evidence-based psychological treatment for internationals navigating the challenges of living abroad.
Therapy is available in English, Spanish, and Catalan, both online and in person.
Whether you recently moved or have been living abroad for years, therapy can help you regain emotional stability, clarity, and a stronger sense of direction.
Common Mental Health Challenges for Expats in the Netherlands
Living in an international environment often brings invisible psychological pressure. Many expats and international professionals in The Hague and Amsterdam seek therapy for:
• Adjustment difficulties and culture shock
• Anxiety and chronic stress
• Loneliness and lack of support network
• Identity changes after relocation
• Relationship strain in international couples
• Work-related burnout in high-demand corporate environments
• Parenting challenges in multicultural families
• Feeling “in between cultures”
• High-functioning anxiety and perfectionism
• Depressive symptoms linked to relocation or isolation
These experiences are common among highly educated, internationally mobile professionals. Seeking psychological support is not a weakness — it is a proactive step toward wellbeing.
English-Speaking Psychologist in The Hague and Amsterdam
Finding a psychologist who understands international life makes a difference.
Working in your native language allows deeper emotional processing and clarity. Many expats prefer therapy in their mother tongue, especially when addressing identity, attachment, or long-standing patterns.
Sessions are available:
• In person in The Hague
• In person in Amsterdam
• Online across the Netherlands
Therapy Tailored to International Professionals
Expat life often includes:
• Dual-career transitions
• Visa and job insecurity
• Distance from family
• Navigating Dutch systems
• Repatriation uncertainty
• High-performance work culture
These stressors accumulate over time and may lead to anxiety, emotional exhaustion, or burnout.
My work integrates structured, evidence-based psychological approaches adapted to the specific needs of internationally mobile clients who value depth, efficiency and professional standards.
Support for International Families and Partners
Relocation affects the entire family system. I also support:
• Partners of expats adjusting to a new identity
• International parents navigating cultural differences
• Mothers experiencing postpartum challenges abroad
Living abroad can intensify existing vulnerabilities. Therapy provides a stable, confidential space to reflect and regain balance.
