A place to slow down,
listen in,
and come home to yourself.
Gestalt therapy for adults living in Lithuania — internationals, expats, returnees. Sessions in fluent English, in person or remote. The first conversation is free and takes 15 minutes — we use it to see if we fit.
„Let us first meet what is."
— Frederick PerlsLiving abroad changes the terrain of self
Many of my clients are internationals — relocated for work, partnered into a new country, or returned home after years away. The themes that bring people in often share a shape:
Cultural in-betweenness
Feeling not quite at home anywhere — neither here nor there.
Career under pressure
Tech, finance, NGO — high responsibility, thinning identity.
Relationships at distance
Long-distance, blended cultures, partnership across languages.
Loss of community
The friendships you built somewhere else; the ones you haven't built yet.
Anxiety, burnout
Body holding tension that the mind keeps trying to outrun.
Existential questions
Mid-life, post-pandemic, post-relocation — what now?
What is gestalt?
Gestalt is a humanistic, present-focused therapy. Instead of digging through the past as story, we pay attention to how it lives in you now — in your body, your tone, in what you avoid.
The therapeutic relationship itself is part of the work. What happens between us — how we meet, where we don't — is often the most direct path into what happens elsewhere in your life.

People hesitate to book what they haven't seen. Here's the shape of one session — minute by minute, no mystique.

Settling
We sit. We breathe. Nothing is urgent.

Contact
You start with what feels alive — even if you don't know yet what to say.
- 0:30 – 0:45
Experiment
Sometimes we pause on what's happening between us. We notice; we don't analyse.
- 0:45 – 0:50
Closing
We find what you carry forward. We agree on the next time.

Before you book
How many sessions will I need?
Gestalt isn't a course with a fixed length. First shifts usually surface in 4–6 meetings; deeper work takes 6–18 months. You can stop whenever it feels right.
I've never been to therapy. Is that ok?
Yes — most of my clients haven't. You don't need to prepare anything. We start from "I don't know where to start" if that's where you are.
Is everything I say confidential?
Yes. Confidentiality is the ethical and legal baseline. The only exceptions involve real risk to your or someone else's life — we cover this in the first session.
Online or in person — does it matter?
For most work, no. In-person can feel different in body-focused experiments; online is fine for the rest. Many clients mix the two.
Do you accept insurance?
Direct billing isn't available for most international insurance. I provide an itemised invoice (in EN or LT) you can submit for reimbursement.
