Psychological support for emigrants

Migration is not just a change of country.
It is a shift in your entire world – your relationships, identity, daily life, and the way you see yourself.

A migration-related crisis can appear after just a few weeks abroad, but sometimes it emerges much later, even after many years of living in another country.
It often happens at a moment when, in theory, everything should already feel settled.

I am a psychologist from Kraków and have been living in Spain – in Seville – for many years. I understand migration not just from my clinical work, but also from personal experience. I know what it means to build a sense of self between two countries, two languages, and different versions of who you are.

I support people when they:

  • feel that “this was supposed to look different,”

  • experience frustration, anger or disappointment – with themselves, the country they moved to, their partner, or the decisions they made,

  • notice mood fluctuations, loss of motivation, frequent crying, or a growing sense of helplessness or loneliness,

  • are facing difficult decisions – returning to your country, changing jobs, moving again – and feel confusion rather than clarity.

In our work together, we create space to organise emotions, needs and priorities. Not to rush into a decision, but to help you move forward with greater clarity, inner alignment, and a stronger sense of meaning.

Migration and Identity

Living abroad often brings up questions we may never have asked ourselves before:

Who am I now? Where is my home? Am I still “from here”, or already “from there”? Am I torn between two countries?

In psychological work, we:

  • explore how migration has influenced your sense of identity,

  • learn to make space for the feeling of being “in between” – without pressure to define everything immediately,

  • strengthen your personal story so you can carry it with greater acceptance and pride, rather than shame or a sense of failure.

You do not need to have a “serious problem” to seek support.

It is enough that something feels difficult, unsettling, or confusing – or that you simply feel the need to talk to someone who understands the experience of migration from the inside as well.

This support may be helpful for you if:

  • you would like to experience more calm and clarity instead of constant tension, emotional ups and downs, or inner chaos,

  • you need a safe space where you can speak in Polish, English or Spanish without having to explain or translate your migration experience,

  • you want to understand your emotions more deeply rather than fight them or push them away,

  • you are facing important decisions (returning to your country, changing jobs, moving again) and want to make them in alignment with yourself rather than under pressure,

  • you feel “in between” two countries and would like to find your own place – even if it is not clearly defined,

  • you want to strengthen your sense of identity and self-worth instead of constantly comparing yourself to others or questioning your choices,

  • you are looking for someone who truly understands migration – not just in theory, but also through personal experience of living abroad.

And, in truth, I don’t really know where I belong more.”
