English-speaking Therapist in Switzerland

English-speaking Counselling in Switzerland

I Speak Your Language So You Can Speak Your Truth

Finding the right therapist is hard enough — let alone in a language that doesn’t feel fully yours.

I offer therapy in English for internationals across Switzerland — online, and in person in Nyon and Lausanne. This work is for anyone who wants more honesty, clarity, and connection in their life — without having to translate what’s already difficult enough to find good words for.

Finding a therapist is hard enough — harder still in a language that isn’t yours. I offer therapy in English, online and in person (Nyon, Lausanne), for anyone seeking honesty, clarity, and connection without the struggle of translation.

What It Means to Work in English

Fluency isn’t just about vocabulary — it’s about being able to speak your truth without translating your soul. Many of my clients speak French or German well enough to function, but still feel emotionally muted in sessions with local therapists.

🎧 English Counselling — 0:52

A reflection on why working in English matters when living abroad.

In English, the defences drop. The body relaxes. Words come closer to what’s actually being felt. Whether you’re navigating grief, stress, shame, disconnection, or burnout — being met in your own language makes a difference.

Many clients find me by searching for an English-speaking therapist in Lausanne or Nyon — because even fluent French or German can feel too blunt when it comes to emotions.

Therapy for Expats and Internationals in Switzerland

Living abroad changes us. You lose old anchors. You adapt fast. Sometimes too fast. That dislocation — even in beautiful places — can spark loneliness, anxiety, identity confusion, or relational tension.

I work with:

People navigating life transitions, cultural shifts, or invisible grief
Couples trying to stay connected while managing multiple languages, careers, and parenting
Men facing burnout, pressure, shame, or emotional isolation

Whether you’ve lived in Switzerland for a decade or just arrived, the challenges are real. And sometimes, they’re hard to name — especially when the world expects you to be grateful.

Therapy That’s Direct, Honest and Human

You don’t need someone who smiles and nods. You need someone who can hold what’s real — without judgement, and without fluff. I don’t do platitudes. I don’t pathologise. I meet you as a person, not a diagnosis.

Whether it’s stress counselling, support for burnout, or navigating relationship strain, I don’t offer platitudes — I work with you directly, as a person.

My work is rooted in direct conversation, relational honesty, and emotional truth. We’ll explore what’s stuck, what’s hurting, and what’s calling to be reclaimed. You can bring your story in fragments. We’ll piece it together as we go along.
