Description

I see you. You moved countries, built a life, and still carry a heaviness that won’t lift. You may be managing on the outside while feeling lonely, exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer fit who you’re becoming. I know how costly it is to keep rebuilding yourself while living between places. Sometimes what you need is a steady companion to help you make sense of what happened, and where to go from here.
Hi, I’m Ivana, a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist. I’ve lived the full expat cycle myself: relocation, reinvention, repatriation, and everything in between. I draw on nearly ten years of international work across the MENA region and beyond, and I also train and supervise clinicians and work as a cultural mediator. 
My practice is trauma‑informed, culturally sensitive, and evidence‑based. I work with people whose sense of identity and belonging has been shaken by migration or cultural transition, with a focus on complex trauma, developmental trauma, and attachment wounds. I offer practical tools for navigating difficult feelings, setting boundaries, and shifting patterns that no longer serve you, all tailored to your pace and needs.
How to start:
1. Send a brief message about what feels most urgent. 
2. We’ll have a 20‑minute call to see if we’re a good fit. 
3. Book an initial session at a pace that feels right.
