Moving to Berlin

With friends from the UK, the US and Russia, I am painfully aware that some people consider relocating to Berlin to escape discrimination or prosecution in their home country. I have supported people affected by this and set up a supportive Telegram group in spring 2025.

I am happy for every person who moves to my beautiful city because they want to. However, it is heartbreaking to see people moving here because they have no choice. If you are considering leaving your country and/or moving to Berlin, I offer coaching and therapy sessions that can begin online and continue in person after your arrival. Sessions can focus on all the classic coaching/therapy topics, but can also address the specific challenges you are facing.
Should I leave the place I grew up in or stay?
How can I evaluate the safety of my current and future situation?
What risks and challenges might I face after moving?
Where should I move to?

I empathise with anyone facing these questions and am happy to help you find the answers. What is best for you may not be best for others – our goal is to find the solution that best fits you.

Apart from this, sessions can also focus on practical issues, such as organising the steps you need to take and providing practical advice and information about Germany if this is where you would like to relocate.
