Welcome to English Therapy Mannheim

Summer Pause --- I will be accepting new clients beginning mid-September. Consultations will still be available throughout the summer. ​

​

Living in a different country can be an exciting opportunity to gain new experiences and to learn more about yourself. On the other hand, living abroad can come with its own set of challenges. As an American-trained therapist living and working in Mannheim, Germany, I understand how relocating to a new country can impact your mental health and emotional well-being. From navigating a different language and cultural expectations, to adapting to a new work and social environment, these experiences can trigger feelings anxiety, stress, grief, and even cause old traumas to resurface.

Perhaps you find yourself asking questions like:
-Why are the coping strategies I’ve always used no longer working for me?
-What do I do if my child is not adjusting to living in a new country?
-How can my partner and I understand and appreciate our cultural differences to grow our relationship together?
-How do I find a sense of belonging while maintaining my identity?
-How can I cope with having a baby away from my social support system I grew up with?

By combining evidence-based treatment with a personalized strengths-based approach, we will work together to empower you to manage your life. ​I believe small changes and strengthening relationships can have a ripple effect your mental well-being and personal growth. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your thoughts, experiences and emotions while gaining new skills and strategies for managing all that life hands you.

​

All are welcome here. I strive to create a therapy space where people of all backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences are treated with respect, curiosity, and compassion.
