“I offer online counseling for expats and people thinking about moving abroad.”

About Vladica

I offer online counseling for adults in English and Serbian, with a particular focus on expats.

I’ve thought a lot about moving away from Serbia myself. When a close friend moved to Slovenia, hearing about her everyday life made me think more about what happens after the move. You leave for reasons that matter to you. But then there is the life you actually have to get used to: work, relationships, unfamiliar routines, and missing parts of what you had before.

I’m interested in how you experience all of that. Who do you feel you are after moving? How is it when you visit your old home? And how close is your life now to the one you hoped to build?

How Vladica works

My approach is integrative, with an emphasis on our relationship and how we work together. I ask questions, share what I’ve noticed, and check whether I’ve understood you correctly. We can also talk about how our conversations feel for you, including anything I’ve misunderstood or anything you need more of from me. You can tell me when you need us to slow down.

We decide together what to work on. Before suggesting something to try, I want to understand what happens for you in that situation and what you’ve already tried. Sometimes we work through a difficult conversation: what was said, how you felt, and what you wanted to say. We can also practise how you could respond.

We talk about whether our conversations are helping, and what we need to do differently. When we try an exercise or a practical tool, we discuss whether it actually helps you.

Approaches

General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Vladica works.

Person-centred therapy

Person-centred therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, starts from the idea that you are the expert on your own life. The therapist offers warmth, empathy and genuine attention without steering the conversation, so you can explore what matters to you at your own pace. Many people find it helps them feel heard and grow in confidence and self-understanding.

Gestalt therapy

Gestalt therapy focuses on what you are experiencing here and now: thoughts, feelings, body sensations and the way you relate to others in the moment. Through conversation and sometimes small experiments, you become more aware of your patterns and can try new ways of responding. It is used for a wide range of personal and relationship difficulties.

Integrative therapy

Integrative therapy combines ideas and methods from different therapeutic approaches, chosen to suit you and what you bring. Rather than following one model, the therapist adapts the work as it goes along. This flexibility can help when needs change over time.

Psychodynamic therapy

Psychodynamic therapy explores how earlier experiences, and feelings you may not be fully aware of, shape your life today. Patterns that show up in your relationships, and sometimes in the relationship with the therapist, become something to understand together. It is often used for recurring difficulties with mood, relationships and self-esteem.

Transactional analysis

Transactional analysis looks at how we communicate and relate, using the idea of three “ego states”: parent, adult and child. It helps you recognise recurring patterns in your relationships and the life scripts behind them. It offers clear, practical ideas for change.

Questions and answers

Who is online counseling with you for?

I work with adults who are living abroad or preparing to move. We can talk about missing home, finding it hard to settle, loneliness, relationship difficulties, anxiety, and stress or burnout at work.

Are sessions available in English?

Yes. Sessions are available in English and Serbian.

What happens in the first session?

We talk about what brought you here and what you would like help with. You don’t need to know exactly where to start. I’ll also explain confidentiality, supervision, and how the sessions work. Toward the end, we’ll discuss what we could focus on first.

How long are sessions and how often do we meet?

Sessions last 60 minutes. We usually meet weekly at the beginning and agree on the pace together. We discuss any changes to the frequency as we go.

What time zones can you accommodate?

I generally work in the CET/CEST time zone, but I am flexible with scheduling. If you are living in another time zone, we can look for a time that works for both of us.

Do you work with individuals or couples?

I currently work with individual adults only.
