Sally Schulze

Psychologist & Counselor

It's wonderful that you've found your way to our page for psychological support in Prague. 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 incredibly stressful. Especially when you walk across the Charles Bridge in the evening and see Prague Castle in the evening light, homesickness can become overwhelming and create a feeling of being uprooted. You are not alone.

As an online psychologist, I understand the very specific difficulties that await you as an expatriate. It's often not just the obvious things like cultural differences or language barriers. It's the subtle nuances, the small misunderstandings that keep popping up in everyday life when you try to find the right bread in the Czech supermarket or navigate the complicated public transportation system. That feeling of loss of identity that is so difficult to grasp and put into words. I know how exhausting that can be.

My goal here is to show you both local resources in Prague that can help you and to introduce you to my online counseling. This is specifically designed to support you as an expatriate – no matter where you are or what challenges you face. Because sometimes you just need someone who really understands your situation and can help you with advice and support.

    I am Sally Schulze

    I keep hearing 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 succeed in doing this by taking care of myself. Here, for me, the motto is: Practice 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 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. This is how I recharge my batteries and then get back into full swing.

Online Counseling for Expatriates

As an experienced psychological psychotherapist, I offer you empathetic online psychological 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 issues are bothering you, or homesickness is weighing you down – together we will find ways how you can not only survive in Prague, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) from Expatriates

What specific mental health challenges do expatriates in Prague often experience?

Many expatriates in Prague struggle with finding accommodation, which is often expensive and complicated. Bureaucracy and learning the Czech language can also cause stress. Social isolation is another issue, as it can be difficult to make new friends and integrate into Czech culture.

How can I deal with the challenges of the Prague housing market?

Good preparation is important. Find out in advance about the different districts and their rental prices. Use online platforms and local networks for your apartment search. Don't be afraid to seek help from real estate agents or relocation services. Try to connect with other expats to exchange tips and experiences.

How do I find English-speaking psychological counseling in Prague?

There are several ways to find English-speaking psychological counseling in Prague. You can contact the English-speaking psychologist Dr. Ilona Divacka. Alternatively, my online counseling offers a flexible and location-independent solution. Waiting times for an appointment may vary, so it is advisable to make contact early. The costs of psychological counseling are generally not covered by Czech health insurance, so you should find out about the costs in advance.

How can I cope with culture shock in Prague?

Culture shock is a normal reaction to a new environment. Find out in advance about Czech culture and history. Be open to new experiences and try to actively integrate into local life. Seek contact with other expats and locals. Take time for yourself and pursue your hobbies. If you feel overwhelmed, don't be afraid to seek professional help.

What can I do about homesickness and isolation in Prague?

Homesickness and isolation are common feelings among expats. Try to keep in regular contact with your family and friends back home. Find a community in Prague that shares your interests. There are numerous expat groups, sports clubs and cultural organizations. Volunteer or take language courses. Explore the city and discover new favorite places. Plan regular trips to the surrounding area to experience the beauty of the Czech Republic.

How do language barriers affect my mental health and what resources are available?

Language barriers can lead to frustration, misunderstandings, and social isolation. Take a language course to improve your Czech language skills. Use online translation tools and apps to facilitate communication. Don't be afraid to ask locals for help. Be patient with yourself and celebrate your progress. If you feel overwhelmed, psychological counseling in your native language can help you cope with the challenges.

What are the most common conflicts between expatriates and Czech people, and how can I deal with them?

Differences in the directness of communication can lead to misunderstandings. Expatriates often tend to be direct and open, while Czechs tend to communicate more indirectly and diplomatically. Different views of punctuality and hierarchies can also lead to conflicts. Try to understand Czech culture and adapt your communication accordingly. Be tolerant and respectful of other opinions. Address conflicts openly and honestly, but pay attention to a respectful tone.
