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.”
