Kalina Hristova Therapy and counseling for internationals

Online therapy in English and Bulgarian

Mental health support for expats in the Netherlands

I am a Bulgarian psychologist (MSc) based in the Netherlands since 2023 and offer online therapy sessions for internationals. I have experience supporting adults in managing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges, including anxiety, burnout, loneliness, and stress.

I provide therapy in English and Bulgarian. My approach is person-centered and individually tailored, integrating evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). These approaches aim to help you develop coping skills, navigate and overcome difficulties, and gain awareness of recurring patterns.

In my work, I strive to be open and patient, creating a safe and supportive space where you can feel comfortable exploring your experiences and challenges.

I combine three evidence-based methods and tailor each session to your needs.

ACT

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Supports you in accepting difficult emotions, clarifying your values, and taking meaningful action toward a more fulfilling life.

MBCT

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy

Combines mindfulness practices with cognitive techniques to help you stay present, reduce stress, and prevent negative thought cycles.
