Online Therapy for Professionals and Expats
It’s been
too stressful
for far too long
A warm, personal space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the stress and make changes before burnout takes over.
You carry a lot
You may be the person others depend on — at work, at home, and everywhere in between. From the outside, you seem capable and in control. Inside, you may feel exhausted, anxious, disconnected from yourself, or simply tired of carrying so much.
Your body may be tired, but your mind is still at work. You think about what was left unfinished, what is waiting for you tomorrow, and the workload that never seems to become smaller. You may find yourself answering one more email or washing your clothes at midnight, wondering: Am I the only one living like this?

You know you need to slow down. Perhaps your body has already started telling you - through a racing heart, difficulty sleeping, or a feeling that you are reaching your limit.
But you do not know how to stop.
Because you care. Because if you don’t do it, you believe no one else will. Because asking for help can feel more difficult than doing it yourself. And because being the strong and capable one has become such a familiar part of who you are.

There must be another way
We haven’t met yet but I guess if you’re here and you’re still reading, there is a small quiet voice within you that has been telling you for a while - there must be different way to live your busy life and… that you can’t carry on like this for much longer.
There must be another way.
The good news is that you already have everything inside you that you need to move forward with more peace, clarity and fulfillment.
We all get stuck sometimes and it’s ok to get support in these times of life.

I know you can do a lot.
But you don’t have to do everything alone.
This isn’t simply about learning to relax
I will not tell you just to relax or meditate more.
Together, we will slow things down enough to understand what keeps you racing. We will notice the responsibilities you automatically take on, the needs you put aside, and the emotions that have had no space to be felt.
This is not about giving up your ambition or becoming someone who cares less.
It is about finding a way to continue caring without carrying everything alone - and creating a life in which you are enjoying too.

Hi, I’m Baiba
Before becoming a Gestalt Therapist and Qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Teacher, I spent more than ten years working in banking and insurance, so I know high-pressure environments from the inside.
I also know what it is like to carry too much for too long—I have been there myself. Having lived in Latvia, Texas, the Netherlands, and now Spain, I understand the challenges of moving countries. That’s why working with expats is close to my heart.
My approach is warm, non-judgmental and holistic. At the heart of my work is a simple belief: stress doesn’t have to lead to burnout and that feeling joy is part of a healthy mind, body and soul.

What mindfulness taught me about happiness
It is well known that happiness is an inside job, but we all struggle with it sometimes. In this talk, I show how you can use mindfulness to shape your brain for greater happiness and reveal exactly what my 10 years of meditation experience has taught me about training the mind for greater well-being, calm and joy.
