The Hidden Loneliness of Expat Life: The Therapy Journey
Life as an expat is exciting but can often feel isolating. You're navigating cross-cultural contexts and creating new connections but still feel not fully seen. In this blog, Asian American expat therapist Samuel Kim, LMFT 141541 sheds light into expat mental health, exploring themes of identity confusion, loss, and belonging. You don't have to feel like you have to suppress yourself in order to belong. At Oak and Stone Therapy, we support expats navigating cross-cultural stress, loneliness, and culture shock.
