Can Living Abroad Harm Your Mental Health? | Ep 46

Jessica Fonzi, a clinician with The Truman Group, a mental health group specializing in expats and internationals discusses the emotional complexities of life abroad. 

 This episode explores the psychological impact of international relocation, the subtle power shifts in relationships that happen, and the challenge of building meaningful connections in transient communities. Jessica explains how The Truman Group offers tailored mental health support for expatriates, providing therapy and psychological assessments designed for the unique needs of globally mobile individuals and families.

We cover:

• The Emotional Toll of Moving – How relocation affects identity, relationships, and mental health in ways many don’t anticipate.
• Power Shifts in Partnerships – The unspoken challenges of being a "trailing spouse" and navigating changing dynamics in relationships.
• Building Resilience for Expat Families – The importance of creating support networks and finding stability amidst frequent transitions.
• How The Truman Group Helps – Providing culturally competent, online mental health care tailored to expatriates’ unique needs.

We learn about the importance of intentionality in expat life—whether in relationships, career transitions, or mental well-being. If you're navigating the complexities of international living, this episode is a must-listen.
