Online therapy for expats and internationals

Living abroad can be exciting and lonely at the same time. I’m Iryna Yefremenko, an English-speaking psychologist, and I offer online therapy for people building a life away from home, wherever you are.

20 minutes on video, free and without obligation.

What expats often bring

  • Self-doubt

Inner balance

Relationships, when home is far away

Abroad, relationships carry extra weight. A partner from another culture, family in a different time zone, friendships that start from scratch: small tensions grow quickly when there’s no familiar support around you.

In our sessions we look at the patterns behind recurring conflicts, how your own story shapes the way you love and argue, and how to express what you feel, using Transactional Analysis and imagery-based methods.

Why people abroad work with me

  • I’ve travelled to more than 30 countries and feel at home in international environments.
  • I’m in an intercultural relationship myself, and fascinated by how culture shapes our stories about love, family and identity.
  • Six years in a corporate IT job taught me the pressure of office life and burnout first-hand.
  • Master’s degree in Psychology, 1000+ hours of client sessions and regular supervision.
  • Online sessions via Zoom, Google Meet or WhatsApp, at a time that works for your time zone.
