For Companies
Helping expat employees avoid or change the negative effects of relocation on their families by preparing the partners, parents, children to smooth migration process, better adaptation, with less stress and more fun, enthusiasm, happiness.
Different areas of cooperation with companies
Individual support
For each relocated employee the company offers preparation to the new position abroad.
But regarding spouses or the whole family – there is almost no support.
Relocation companies mostly take care of all technical and legal matters, but there is no mental support. Family has no support before and during relocation. They are going through difficult decisions, face challenging situations – culture shock, transition, school issues and new relation matters, and are left alone.
As an expat spouse and mom, I went through all the processes and crisis.
I met hundreds of women facing all the expat challenges, trying by themselves to cope with all the stress, and most of them went through it with wounds.
The whole family had difficult moments, what also was affecting the relocated employees. Moral dilemma, relationship issues, effectiveness and fulfillment at work…
I am offering such families individual coaching sessions, and also crisis consultation and support.
Adaptation workshops
Before changing the country, we meet with spouses and families in order to prepare them mentally to intense changes, new life, culture, life challenges.
I am there for them to make the transition smoother and to explain all concerns, what helps them make a decision and support even their relocated partners.
Relocation process starts with less stress, more confidence and energy.
Workshops for parents
Workshops have main goal to prepare parents & children to transition before and after the relocation.
Workshops are also a great chance to acknowledge the Third Culture theory.
They also prepare parents and children to next relocation decisions and also to come back to country of origin.
Understanding the process of relocation, psychical challenges and crisis, supporting mental health ad wellbeing affect positively the whole family and the expat employees, in everyday life and at work as well.
Support groups
For the company having more expat families I offer support groups as an alternative to individual support.
We use the energy and wisdom of the group, the real community nd belonging forms.
Cooperation with HR departments, international schools, relocation companies
Working many years in an international company, meeting expat families and their challenges, I saw how the stress impact their partners, in the same our employees.
Basing on my corporation and expat life experience, I know that a company can only benefit offering own employees such mental support.
So I invite you, your HR department, or relocation company to contact me.
The relocation process can turn into crisis but it has a great potential of growth for the whole family. It builds a wellbeing of the family but also of the employees.
For every company I prepare tailor made offer, I treat my clients and partners individually and with a professional approach.
Reasons for supporting the expat family by the company
They are not alone

Relocationg companies and HR departments mostly take care of legal and technical issues of relocation. Such help is very important, but when the relocated family starts a new life, they are forced to face lot of psychological challenges and are left alone. In some countries such support in their own language is almost impossible. Loneliness and the loss of closst people around is for epxat families one of the biggest stressor (due to Aetna International Expat Experience Survey 2020).
Company taking care of mental comfort of the expat family is in fact supporting more effective work of own employee.

Transition process can be as long and difficult as every process of change. In companies every bigger change is planned carefully and employees are prepared to it. Most companies are aware also that any change that was not supported and properly conucted can direct toward conflicts and less benefits.
The same with the transition to new life of the expat family. Offering such support can significantly change the transition into faster and smoother process. From such process will benefit family, employee and the whole company.
