As a group of independent counselors and therapists, we collectively offer many diverse skills and resources for the Expat community in Munich (and Heidelberg!). We have backgrounds from the U.S.A., U.K., Australia, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Romania and Armenia. In addition to English-speaking therapy, we offer services in German, Spanish, Italian, French, Dutch, Armenian, Ukrainian and Russian. Many newcomers to Munich navigating significant transitions come to our counselors for support. Jennelle has been working with Expats in Munich since 2016, and in 2020 invited other clinicians to share her office spaces to build an english-speaking “Praxisgemeinschaft” or shared practice space.
