If this feels familiar
Going abroad can be exciting, but there is a side to it people don’t really say out loud. You can meet people, make plans, and stay busy, yet still feel lonely. Not because you’re alone, but because those connections don’t feel deep or steady yet.
You enjoy the freedom, but the highs and lows feel more intense than you expected. You might notice yourself feeling more anxious, low, or overwhelmed than you did back home, while also feeling guilty toward people there for not being as present.
You catch yourself thinking, why is this so hard? Because moving countries doesn’t change what’s underneath. The overthinking, the pressure, and the relationship patterns you had back home don’t stay behind. They show up here, too.
Meet your therapist
I’m Sophie Bezemer, an experienced Dutch-trained psychologist supporting those living abroad or between countries.
I grew up in the Netherlands, lived in Southeast Asia, and am now based in Mexico City. I’ve moved countries, solo traveled, and built a life from scratch more than once. I know how good it can look on the outside and how different it can feel on the inside.
Most people I work with have a life that looks good on paper, but feel anxious, overwhelmed, low, or stuck in familiar patterns. Perhaps you’ve been feeling more on edge than you used to, feeling lonely, overwhelmed, or you keep running into the same patterns in relationships. Or something just feels… off, even if you can’t fully explain it. This is exactly the work we do.
My approach is empathetic, practical and depth-oriented. We don’t just talk about what’s going on, we look at why it is happening, so we can actually make lasting changes.
Just because you can do it alone, doesn’t mean you have to. Asking for help is the first step toward the life you want.
