Relocated

Have you recently relocated and things are not going as you expected?

Most people undertaking a relocation halfway around the globe or across the country will carefully plan logistics such as transportation, accommodation and schooling, but will often overlook the associated emotional aspects.

During the time just before and just after the move everything was new and exciting, energy and enthusiasm were high and it felt, for the most part, like a holiday.  It isn’t until you’ve had some time to settle in to your new surroundings that you may suddenly begin to feel the effects of having forgotten to take yourself into account.

You can find yourself faced with career, family, social and even language transitions.

• Are you feeling overwhelmed at your new responsibility of building a new social network for your family?
• Are you feeling homesick because you miss the great friends and family you’ve left behind?
• Do you feel unhappy and demotivated because you’ve given up so much for your family, all to start life over?
• Do you want to give up on trying to meet anyone since no one compares to the best friends you moved away from?
• Are you shy and unsure how to start a conversation?
• Are you struggling to figure out which resources to use to meet new people?
• Do you feel alone, like no one understands what you’re going through?
• Are you bored and lonely because your spouse works most of the time, leaving you alone ?
• Are changes in your roles put your relationships to the test?

I can help you to accept and build a new life, to create and keep strong relationships over the process of encountering a new you.
