Between Languages, Cultures and Ways of Life
Living between different languages and cultures can be enriching, but it can also bring unique challenges.
Moving to a new country, building a life abroad, navigating an intercultural relationship or adapting to a different professional and social environment often raises questions about identity, belonging, communication and personal direction.
Counselling can offer a space to reflect, gain clarity and develop new perspectives.
Stefan has been a trusted companion during several career transitions and important professional decisions. His intercultural perspective, international experience and ability to work in French made our conversations particularly meaningful.
His familiarity with different cultural and professional environments — including French-, English-, Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking contexts — helped me gain clarity and confidence in navigating complex decisions across countries and cultures.
He combines empathy, clarity and cultural understanding in a way that makes his support both insightful and practical.

Counselling in Five Languages
I offer psychosocial counselling in:
- English
- German
- French
- Spanish
- Portuguese
Sessions can take place entirely in one language or move between languages, depending on what feels most natural and supportive.
Many people find it easier to talk about personal experiences in their native language. At the same time, another language in which they feel comfortable and understood can also provide a valuable pathway. What matters most is not whether it is one’s native language, but whether it allows thoughts, emotions and experiences to be expressed as freely and authentically as possible.

- Living and working abroad
- Relocation and cultural adaptation
- Intercultural relationships and partnerships
- Identity and belonging
- Personal transitions and life changes
- Career orientation and decision-making

International Background
My own life has been shaped by different languages, countries and cultural perspectives.
I grew up between Vienna and Paris and have moved between German and French since childhood. Later, I spent many years living and working in Latin America and Portugal and have been involved in projects throughout Europe and Africa.
These experiences have given me first-hand insight into the opportunities and challenges of living across cultures and continue to inform my work as a psychosocial counselor today.
