Relocation Coaching

Re-establish. Reinvent. Rebuild Your new life.

There is a big difference between surviving and thriving in a new country. Effective relocation coaching assists globally mobile employees and their spouses to re-establish their lives and settle seamlessly into a foreign country so that they thrive

Are you or your spouse anticipating a move? Are you and your family feeling overwhelmed and stressed at the prospect of integrating into a new community, navigating a new culture and customs in a foreign country or having to re-establish your personal and/or professional life? Relocation/expatriate coaching can assist you with the daunting task of relocating to a new country with confidence, ease and success. 

What is relocation coaching? 

Particularly beneficial during times of transition and change, relocation coaching supports you and your expatriate family as you prepare for and adjust to your new circumstances in a new environment/foreign country.

Through a process of powerful, targeted and thought-provoking questioning, I ignite your inner drive and resourcefulness, shift your perspective, raise your self- awareness and empower you to generate new insights, possibilities and solutions. During this stressful transition period in your life, I focus on your personal growth and building your resilience and confidence so that you are able to deal with the practical and emotional challenges of relocating with ease and success.

With me as your coach, you will be able to re-establish, reinvent and rebuild a life you are excited and proud to lead. Successfully plan for your transition and beyond!

Don’t Just Survive Abroad…

Thrive Abroad!

In this interconnected, diverse and ever-changing world, relocation coaching is crucial to support globally mobile individuals and global teams and organizations. As a University of Cambridge certified and cross-cultural professional coach, I am certified to administer the Cultural Orientations Framework (COF), a conceptual framework and primary assessment tool, with individuals, teams and organizations. With this framework tool, I enable clients to become aware of their inevitable biases, (for example, how one manages time or communicates and deals with power and responsibility) so that they are better equip leverage cultural differences and build unity.

With relocation coaching, I support you in identifying new growth opportunities outside of your cultural comfort zone, deciphering cultural differences, effectively bridging cultural gaps and understanding your own cross-cultural orientations in order to sustain high performance, promote creativity and inclusion and address complex inter-cultural, global challenges.


Confidential, trustworthy, and supportive

My relocation coaching enables individuals to take time to reflect, find clarity and discover solutions and strategies to the challenges they face in this ever-changing, culturally diverse world.

By offering a confidential and non-judgemental space, I invite the opportunity for change. For it is my firm believe that when individuals find a way to create environments where they are preforming at their absolute best, they will be empowered to contribute significantly, maximize their own unlimited potential and achieve the unimaginable.

It describes our philosophy of leveraging cultural diversity in the broadest sense, and most of all, how we apply it in practice to have a real impact.
