Empowerment Through Therapy

Why I Started REVIVE MENTAL HEALTH

I founded Revive Mental Health to offer a dedicated space for expats, especially women, navigating life abroad. Whether you moved overseas to pursue your own career or to support your partner’s, the challenges can be profound and often invisible to others.

Many of the women I work with arrive in a new country driven, successful, and full of ambition, only to find themselves suddenly questioning their identity and self-worth. Work permits are hard to secure, careers get put on hold, and a once clear sense of purpose begins to fade. Left with too much time to think and too little validation, it's easy to lose touch with the confident, grounded version of yourself you used to know.

These transitions can further amplify other struggles, from fertility issues, pregnancy loss, and perimenopause to isolation, loneliness, or even just adjusting to a new climate. And while becoming a mother abroad might seem exciting, it can be deeply overwhelming without family or trusted friends nearby, especially in those long, sleepless nights.

My Journey

Before becoming a mother and reorienting my life toward psychotherapy, I built a corporate career at a well-known global firm in Germany while representing my country in full-contact Taekwondo sparring. After relocating to Singapore, I continued working with another multinational company until I made the decision to step back and care for the first of my two young children.

These transitions reshaped me. I know what it feels like to question your identity, to crave connection and purpose, and to seek support that truly understands the depth of your experience. My own journey through therapy became the turning point, the space where I reconnected with myself and found new clarity. That’s when I decided to pursue what had always been close to my heart: helping others heal and grow.

My Approach

I believe every individual holds unique strength, shaped by their story, background, and goals. In our work together, I offer a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak freely and be met with empathy, not expectations.

I focus on an holistic approach and integrate traditional and modern, evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Hypnotherapy, and Positive Psychology, always tailored to your needs and who you are. I hold a Diploma in Psychology and Psychotherapy as well as a Professional & Postgraduate Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling and I am a registered member of the International Council of Integrative Psychotherapists.

Together, we’ll co-create a therapeutic path that helps you reconnect with your values, build emotional resilience, and move forward with authenticity and confidence.

A few personal things (because therapists are human too)

Coffee is my lifeline. Truly. No deep therapeutic insight there, just facts.

I’m obsessed with poetry, photography, painting and generally everything that is art. And I can get emotional over a really good sunset. But don’t be fooled, I fall asleep (or try to) to Jack Reacher or Mitch Rapp novels and I only watch movies with at least one criminal mastermind.

I’m passionately curious about women’s health, partly because it’s still wildly under-researched, and partly because I was diagnosed with premature ovarian failure. It opened my eyes to a whole range of symptoms I didn’t even know were a thing.

Nothing grounds me like the ocean. Give me crashing waves, a quiet beach, and I’ll come back a whole new woman.

Memes are my love language. No one is safe.
