Service: Expat-focused life and career coaching via Zoom sessions
I worked with Virginia when I was moving countries and couldn’t work because of my visa, and I was feeling very low and overwhelmed. We met on Zoom and it was instant love. She’s very warm and empathetic, but also about objectives and real steps, and she really got me working on me. Over months she helped me think deeply, feel understood, and I left sessions with energy like "yes, I’m going to do it", and I did. We did once-a-week sessions, but if I could afford it, I would have done sessions with her every single day. The price went up later and it’s not cheap for me, but she’s worth it and I recommend her others all the time.

Service: Psychotherapy sessions with follow-up support and assigned homework
I hired Vaida for psychotherapy and the service was great, like amazing. I have a high bar; I don’t want just someone to listen to me, I want results, and she goes beyond that with key questions, clear after-session resources, and homework that keeps me working between sessions. There are follow ups if you need them and the way she talks to you, her empathy, makes you feel like she gets you. Price felt fair and overall it went beyond what I expected.

Service: Psychotherapy for expat adjustment difficulties and anxiety
I moved abroad and was finding it hard to readjust - I was getting quite anxious and kind of lost my identity, so I got a referral to speak to Brent at Pathfinder Therapy. The plan was very structured, and he spent a lot of time getting to know me and my background, which helped me become very steady and feel relaxed. Previously I felt under the microscope with therapists who wanted to stick labels on everything, but with Brent it felt very natural and I felt secure and safe. He was there on time, maintained boundaries really well, and wrote back when he promised - price felt more than fair.
