Psychological Psychotherapist (CBT) Sally Schulze
It's wonderful that you've found your way to our page for English-speaking psychological support in Ljubljana. I understand what it feels like to be far from home. Life as an expat holds so many wonderful experiences, but it can also be an emotional rollercoaster. The longing for family and friends, the challenge of finding your way in a new culture, and that feeling of having one foot in two worlds – all of this can be quite nerve-wracking. Especially when the silence sets in, homesickness can become overwhelming, creating a feeling of being uprooted. You are not alone. Perhaps you feel this particularly when standing on the banks of the Ljubljanica, admiring the baroque splendor of the city, while simultaneously wondering where you truly belong.
As an online psychologist, I understand the unique difficulties that await you as an expat. It's often not just the obvious things like cultural differences or language barriers. It's the subtle nuances, the small misunderstandings that repeatedly arise in everyday life, and that feeling of identity loss that is so hard to grasp and put into words. I know how draining that can be. Perhaps you sometimes feel like a tourist in your own home, unable to truly arrive in Slovenian culture.
My goal here is to show you both local resources in Ljubljana that can help you and to introduce you to my online counseling. This is specifically designed to support you as an expat – no matter where you are right now and what challenges you face. Because sometimes you simply need someone who truly understands your situation and can support you with advice and practical help.
I always hear the question: Sally, do you take time for yourself? The answer is: Yes! As a speaker, expert, and entrepreneur, I am passionate about women's health. But I don't burn out.
I manage to do that by taking care of myself. Here, for me, the saying applies: Practice what you preach. So you will find me not only at MentalStark, in TED-Talks, or podcasting. No. You will also find me in Frankfurt cafés, by the lake, or on the snowboard. In the picture here on the right, I am enjoying the sun and the fresh sea breeze. That's how I recharge my batteries and then start again full throttle.
As a licensed psychological psychotherapist (CBT) and certified fertility counselor, I bring more than 3,000 hours of experience in online counseling. My approach is based on appreciation and radical acceptance – I create a safe space where you feel understood and accepted.
In our collaboration, a trusting relationship is particularly important to me. Your experiences as an expat deserve special attention and understanding, because life between two cultures brings unique challenges.

As an experienced psychological psychotherapist, I offer you empathetic psychological online counseling. I understand how overwhelming it can be to adapt to a new culture – when the language sounds foreign, the social codes are different, and sometimes you can't even explain why you feel so alien.
In my online counseling, we create a protected space where you can talk about all these feelings in your native language. Whether you feel torn between cultures, identity questions occupy you, or homesickness weighs you down – together we will find ways how you can not only survive in Ljubljana, but lead a fulfilling life.
Even if you are in a relationship crisis – perhaps even with a partner from a different cultural background – my couples counseling is a valuable support to build cultural bridges and find your way back to each other.
The 20-minute introductory conversation with me is free of charge. Check completely without obligation whether the chemistry is right and ask your open questions. You are also welcome to make appointments by e-mail. I look forward to getting to know you and finding a way together how you can not only survive in Ljubljana, but really arrive.
