Expat Counselling and Psychotherapy Vienna
Mag. Grigorijan MariannaExpat Counselling
In my counselling and psychotherapy practice I have been working with expats for a long time and experienced that many of my clients are suffering from diverse issues.
Do you see yourself in one of them below?
- Suffering from loneliness and separation
- Not finding a welcoming and helping community in Vienna
- Missing family and friends
- Exploring the Austrian culture and mentality is exhausting and so different from your own
- Being treated differently by local authorities
- Having the feeling that you don’t quite belong here
- Feeling depressed, sad and insecure
- You left your home country to make a significant change to your life
- Looking for psychotherapy or counselling was crossing your mind before but you kept postponing it because you thought you can deal with all that on your own as you always did.
Facing all those problems listed above can be overwhelming and hard to deal with and in the same way it can be a real chance for a change in your life. Looking for help is the first courageous step.
I want to help you to regain your capabilities and self healing forces to create the conditions of a happy and self-determined life.
Let`s work on profound and lasting changes with psychotherapy and counselling.

A bit about my work as a Psychotherapist and Counsellor
- My clients are central to my work, and my practice for psychotherapy and counselling was born from the desire to help people feel fulfilled, empowered and happy in their lives, wherever they are and whatever they are doing.
- In my private practice in Vienna I provide a quiet, safe, confidential, non-judgmental space where, with my professional help, you can explore and make sense of painful and overwhelming issues.
- As a Gestalttherapist I am able to draw flexibly on theory and techniques from a number of different approaches to personalize our therapy accordance with your needs.
About me
Mag. Marianna GrigorijanI am a qualified and accredited Gestalt Psychotherapist and Counsellor. In my private practice in Vienna I work with individual adults on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully.
Coming from Georgia I am an expat myself and I know how it feels to get adjusted to a new city like Vienna. I know that the life of an expat can sometimes be challenging. Over the years working with expats has become a big part of my work as a therapist and counsellor.
I do enjoy working with people from different parts of the world to help them find their place in a new city- and inside themselves.
I offer consultations in two different practices. That gives you the chance to choose which practice is the easiest for you to reach:

When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

Vienna, the city of my therapy and counselling practice
Over the years Vienna with its growing economy, remarkable history and culture became a city of interest for many people. Vienna has also been called the most livable city in the world for the ninth time in a row by Mercer, a well known consulting firm. The political, social and economic climate as well as medical care, education, air quality restaurants, theaters, sports facilities and the big number of green areas in the city are just a few of the many reasons why Vienna became a very fast growing city. Not only tourists get attracted to Austria`s capital but also expats from all over the world who want to start over and begin a new chapter of their lives by working and living there. It makes me very happy to see that Vienna is becoming a melting pot for many different cultures, languages and mentalities. I am a big Vienna fan and very thankful to be able to live and work in a great and adventurous city like this. I am located in different parts of Vienna to make it easy for you to reach my psychotherapy and counselling practice.
