Therapy for Expats by Expats



Mission
At Expat Couch, our mission is to provide compassionate, culturally attuned psychological counseling and psychotherapy for Hamburg’s international community. As a diverse network of multicultural practitioners, we create a warm, inclusive, and supportive space where people from all backgrounds feel seen, understood, and valued.
Offering services in English, Italian, Turkish, Portuguese, Spanish, and German, we embrace the richness of different cultures, languages, and life experiences. We believe that honoring diversity strengthens our ability to understand each individual’s unique story and provide meaningful, personalized support for mental health and wellbeing.
Our Story
Mara Chow, Amanda Hoffmann, and Enrica Sarotto founded Expat Couch in 2024. Our goal is to create a supportive environment for international psychotherapists in building their practices after relocating to Germany.
Based in Hamburg, Germany, Expat Couch focuses on reducing the isolation and complexity often faced when navigating a new professional system. It provides community, guidance, and connection for therapists from abroad. The goal is to help international clinicians establish sustainable psychotherapy practices while feeling supported and integrated.
