Psychological Psychotherapist (CBT) Sally Schulze
It's wonderful that you've found your way to our page for English-speaking psychological support in Phoenix. I truly understand what it feels like to be far from home. Life as an expat holds so many amazing experiences, but it can also be an emotional rollercoaster. The longing for family and friends, the challenge of navigating a new culture—somewhere between the Arizona desert and big city life—and that feeling of straddling two worlds—all of this can really test your nerves. Especially when the sun sets and the cacti cast long shadows, homesickness can become overwhelming, leaving you feeling uprooted. You are not alone.
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 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, especially when you're trying to find your place in the bustling atmosphere of Phoenix.
My goal here is to show you both local resources in Phoenix 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 or what challenges you face. Because sometimes you just need someone who truly understands your situation and can help you with advice and support.
I constantly hear the question: Sally, do you also 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 to do this by taking care of myself. For me, it's important to practise what you preach. So you can find me not only at MentalStark, in TED-Talks, or podcasting. No. You can also find me in Frankfurt cafes, by the lake, or on a snowboard. In the picture here on the right, I am enjoying the sun and the fresh sea breeze. This is how I recharge my batteries and then go full throttle again.
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.
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 adapting to a new culture can be – when the language sounds foreign, the social codes are different, and sometimes you can't even explain why you feel so out of place.
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 concern you, or homesickness burdens you – together we will find ways how you can not only survive in Phoenix, but lead a fulfilling life.
Even if you are in a relationship crisis – perhaps even with a partner from another 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 e-mail. I look forward to getting to know you and working together to find a way for you to not only survive in Phoenix, but really arrive.
