Psychological Psychotherapist (CBT) Sally Schulze
It’s wonderful that you've found your way to our page for psychological support in Paris tailored for English speakers. I truly understand what it feels like to be far from home. Expat life holds so many incredible experiences, but it can also be an emotional rollercoaster. The longing for family and friends, the challenge of navigating a new culture – caught between the elegant charm of Paris and the familiar comfort of home – and that feeling of straddling two worlds can really take a toll. Especially when the silence settles in as you gaze at the Seine, homesickness can become overwhelming, leaving you feeling uprooted. Please know that you're not alone in this.
As an online psychologist, I deeply understand the unique challenges that await you as an English speaker abroad. It's often not just the obvious things like cultural differences or language barriers. It's the subtle nuances, the little misunderstandings while buying a baguette, that keep cropping up in everyday life and that feeling of identity loss that's so hard to grasp and put into words. I know how draining that can be.
My goal here is to show you both local resources in Paris that can help you, and to introduce you to my online counseling services. This is specifically designed to support you as an English speaker abroad – no matter where you are right now and what challenges you're facing, whether it's finding the perfect apartment or dealing with French bureaucracy. Because sometimes you just need someone who really understands your situation and can support you with advice and action.
I constantly hear the question: Sally, do you ever take time for yourself? The answer is: Yes! As a speaker, expert, and entrepreneur, I'm passionate about women's health. But I don't burn out.
I manage this by taking care of myself. Here, I practice what I preach. So, you'll find me not only at MentalStark, in TED-Talks, or podcasting. No. You'll also find me in Frankfurt cafés, by the lake, or on the snowboard. In the picture to the right, I'm enjoying the sun and the fresh sea breeze. That's how I recharge and then dive back in full force.
As a licensed Psychological Psychotherapist (CBT) and certified fertility counselor (BKiD), 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.
A trusting relationship is particularly important to me in our collaboration. Your experiences as an English speaker abroad deserve special attention and understanding, because life between two cultures brings unique challenges.
For in-person appointments in Paris, there are several english-speaking psychologists who can provide you with professional support:

Diplompsychologin (deutschsprachig)
121 av. Victor Hugo
92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, Frankreich
As an experienced Psychological Psychotherapist, I offer you empathetic psychological online counseling. I understand how overwhelming adapting to a new culture can be – when the language sometimes sounds clunky, the social codes are different, and you sometimes can't even explain why you feel so foreign while walking through the streets of Paris.
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 issues are bothering you, or homesickness is weighing you down – together we will find ways how you can not only survive in Paris, 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 call 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 email. I look forward to getting to know you and finding a way together how you can not only survive in Paris, but really arrive.
