Mental health coaching for people building a life abroad

A grounded space to reflect, reconnect, and move forward, wherever you are in the journey.

Welcome! I'm glad you are here!
 

You did the hard part. You moved. You sorted the housing, the paperwork, the practical things. But somewhere along the way, quieter questions started to surface. About who you are becoming in this new place. About work, belonging, direction, and what you actually believe. About whether the life you are building here truly feels like yours.

If you are carrying those questions, you are in the right place.

This is a space for people who are already living abroad and navigating the deeper layers that come with it. Through mental health coaching, structured conversations, and community, I support you in making sense of where you are and moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Our Founder

Hello, I’m Adrienn. It's good to connect with you here!

​​

I know this experience from the inside.
 

I first moved abroad to London and lived there for twelve years. Like many people who relocate, I had to begin again in ways I had not expected. I started with temporary jobs, learned how different systems worked, and slowly found my way back into meaningful work, first in consulting, then in education and community projects focused on people navigating important life transitions.


After more than a decade, I hit a wall. The pace, the pressure, and the changes in my community led to burnout. That period became a turning point. I stepped back, reflected deeply, and began building something new. At the end of 2023, I moved again, this time to Spain.


Living through these transitions has shaped how I work. I understand how exciting life abroad can be, and how quietly complex it becomes over time.
My practice is grounded in professional training in mental health coaching and informed by my Christian faith, which shapes how I understand growth, resilience, and direction. I work with people from all backgrounds, including those who are exploring or questioning their beliefs, because these conversations belong to everyone.


Since 2013 I have been mentoring and coaching young people, and since 2020 my work has also focused on supporting women and internationally mobile people in areas of leadership, wellbeing, and career. I have more than 1,800 hours of coaching conversations and have worked with individuals and organisations across Europe, the UK, Latin America, and Asia.

You Might Be in the Right Place if...

🌱 You’ve been living abroad for a while, and it still doesn’t quite feel like home. Something deeper hasn’t settled yet.

🌱 You feel in between who you were and who you are becoming, across cultures, identities, and expectations.

🌱 Your faith feels different now. Questions have come up, and you’re not sure where they belong.

🌱 You’re trying to rebuild something in your life, and it feels heavier doing it away from where you started.

🌱 You need support now, not months from now.

🌱 You’re ready for more than just getting through. You want a life here that feels like yours.

How I Support People

One-to-one coaching

Private sessions to talk through what you are experiencing, reflect on what matters, and move forward with greater clarity.

Workshops

Small group spaces where participants reflect together, share perspectives, and develop practical tools for wellbeing and direction.

Group programmes

Usually four to seven weeks long. A community space to develop tools, reflect together, and reconnect with what matters most.

Our work usually moves around three areas:

Making Sense of Where You Are

Living abroad can leave you feeling off, even when everything looks fine on paper. We slow things down and help you see what is actually going on, so things start to make sense again.


Reconnecting with Direction, Values and Faith

Life abroad can quietly pull you away from what used to ground you. Together, we reflect on what matters to you, what you want to build here, and what you may need to let go of. Your faith, wherever you are with it, is welcome in that process.
 

Moving Forward in a Grounded Way

Once things feel clearer, we focus on action. This might mean making a decision, rebuilding confidence, or taking a first step. We move at your pace, but we keep moving. 

This work is about helping you find your footing in the life you are already living, and building from there.

If you would like to explore working together, you can find the available sessions and programmes below.

What is Mental Health Coaching

Mental health coaching is a space to talk openly about what you are experiencing, make sense of it, and build practical ways to support your wellbeing. Through structured conversations and reflection, you strengthen self-awareness and develop habits that support your mental and emotional health.

It is not therapy or counselling, and it does not diagnose or treat mental health conditions. It can be especially helpful during life transitions, such as moving countries, adjusting to a new culture, or rethinking your direction. It is also a good option if you are on a waiting list for therapy and need support in the meantime.

If at any point deeper therapeutic support is needed, I will say so directly and help you connect with the right person.

Background & Training

My work sits at the intersection of wellbeing, education, and life transitions. Over more than a decade I have coached and mentored young people, women, and internationally mobile professionals, designing programmes that combine reflection, career development, and community. I have worked with individuals and organisations across Europe, the UK, Latin America, and Asia. 

My coaching practice is informed by training in mental health and trauma informed approaches. My training in mental health coaching was completed through programmes developed within a Christian counselling framework (AACC), and continues to inform my work.

Testimonials

Individual Participant (coaching)

"...By not shying away from difficult conversations, Adrienn helped me focus on what I want, what I am good at and what I want to avoid. Bringing new and different methods and approaches to the sessions when it felt like I was stuck in my own head helped me to look at my applications from a different standpoint. I was able to streamline my applications by really bringing to the forefront my strengths and my passions instead of focusing on my weaknesses after reading all those rejection letters. Maybe more importantly, by helping me focus on what made my profile strong and compelling, Adrienn helped me regain my confidence which had gotten lost in the emotional turmoil that is job applications. In the end, due to my returned confidence, I was able to showcase my strengths and abilities in a set of job interviews, which ultimately scored me my dream job at an NGO. "

Cäcilia

Individual Participant (coaching)

"Working with Adrienn was instrumental in shifting my attitude towards self-compassion, positive thinking and growing clarity. She has a holistic approach that emphasizes intuitive thinking. Since my sessions with Adrienn, I got a remote job (which I was hoping for) but more importantly, I feel more confident in myself and less afraid of what is to come.

Silvana

Individual Participant (coaching)

"I signed up for 1-2-1 sessions with Adrienn, eager to enter the social impact field but feeling lost on how to stand out and secure a job. What I found exceeded my expectations. Adrienn's dynamic sessions not only focused on job-seeking but challenged my approach to the social impact sector, my potential role, and the essence of social impact work. She shared her experiences, offered practical resume advice, and expanded my understanding of the field's diverse roles. Adrienn encouraged me to critically assess my strengths, values, and unique contributions. Her coaching extended beyond the professional realm, deepening my understanding of my passionate social causes.”

Rita

Organisational Support (mentoring youth)

Péter Klausz

Pedagogic Director

Engame Academy

Individual Participant (workshop)

"The [workshop] was outstanding, featuring clear explanations and interactive elements that kept me engaged throughout the session... The topic provided valuable insights into the importance of adaptability, perseverance, and creating a resilient work environment. I now have a clearer understanding of how these traits contribute to effective leadership and intend to incorporate them into my professional life. I would like to express my appreciation for the facilitator's expertise and the thought-provoking discussions that took place."

Organisational Support (youth mentor and youth engagement)

"​Adrienn's support has been transformative for LALA. Her role as a mentor to LALíderes across Latin America has inspired and empowered young leaders, creating a ripple effect that strengthens our community. Through her work on youth engagement programs in Mexico, Adrienn has been instrumental in building stronger, lasting relationships that expand our reach and deepen our influence. Her broad skill set and comprehensive understanding of our organization amplify the value of her contributions, making her an invaluable asset to LALA. I certainly recommend her work."

Ticiane Midori Shiki

Director of Operations

LALA - Latin American Leadership Academy

Individual Participant (coaching)

"I was initially drawn to Adrienn when I felt lost in my career and life. Every session brought remarkable clarity and insight. From the start, I felt a strong connection and genuine support from her. Adrienn had a unique ability for revealing things I couldn't see on my own. Our conversations covered every aspect of my life, showing me how they intertwined. Through thought-provoking questions, she challenged my limiting beliefs and offered constructive feedback. This empowered me to unlock my true potential and make meaningful progress. After each session with Adrienn, I took bold steps towards dormant projects. I realized I didn't need perfect clarity; I could move forward despite fear and uncertainty."

Mojisola 

Individual Participant (coaching)

"Adrienn provided me with an empathetic understanding and created a safe space for me to share. Throughout the sessions, I have been able to reflect on multiple aspects of how I approach and react to situations. It was super helpful to have the support of someone who has experienced similar situations and patiently converses to help us resolve our issues!"
