The Emotional Challenges of Expat Life Living abroad can be incredibly enriching, but it can also bring loneliness, uncertainty, anxiety and emotional fatigue. Many expats find themselves navigating big life changes (and all the smaller disorientation that come with the new environment and culture) without their usual support systems or a familiar sense of home. Culture shock and the feeling of being "between worlds" is very real and can be destabilizing, at a time when it can feel like the pressure is on to be your very best and do it quickly. As an expat in the Netherlands now and as someone who has experienced life as an international in many countries and cultures across the world, I understand this experience first-hand. So, I speak not only from my decade of experience as a therapist but from personal experience too.

Why Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy is Ideal for Expats What's more, at Clarity Flow Hypnotherapy, we work with solution-focused Hypnotherapy, which is ideal for empowering you to figure things out and navigate transitions smoothly.

I often get approached by worn out expats who have been unsuccessful in getting the help they nead through their local healthcare system. Sometimes they're concerns are not deemed seriously enough to warrent proper support. Some do get a refferal but the waiting lists is dishearteningly long. Some get assigned a therapist but it's not a good match, the the therapist does not understand the context they're coming from and try to stick them in the local mold or they may have a nice therapist but communication is hindered by the English language skills of the therapist. At Clarity Flow Hypnotherapy, we want to make sure you experience understanding and being understood on all possible levels; language, expat and cultural context, experience and the human empathy factor. So you'll always be supported by a therapist who:
