Personalized Care

The Expat Life Isn’t Easy

What is Personalized Care?

Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone seasoned to walk with you, someone to help you process and navigate life overseas? Having someone journey alongside you on this cross-cultural road can make a huge difference—especially when that “someone” knows first-hand what cross-cultural life in your region of the world is like. Personalized Care is an ongoing, intentional relationship that is designed to help you stay healthy and “Do Better, Stay Longer.”

How Does It Work?

Personalized Care is an ongoing professional relationship designed to help you reflect on and navigate your cross-cultural journey.

1

Enjoy a Discovery Session

Discovery Sessions are 30-minute, free discussions to meet your potential Personalized Care Provider. You’ll get to know them a bit and talk about what you hope Personalized Care will do for you. Then, together you’ll consider next steps.

2

Choose Your Package

Whether you want to meet often or just occasionally, we can accommodate your individual needs for Personalized Care. You can choose one-off sessions or purchase multiple sessions at a discount, then spread those out as you wish.

3

Pair with Your Provider

This is the best part—meeting with someone whose focus is on you! Our providers live, or have lived, in North Africa, the Middle East, or the Sahel and are trained to help you learn and grow. Over time, you’ll have a growing sense of being known by someone who is there for you.

Personalized Care Approaches

We have 4 basic approaches of care to choose from. Just let us know your current thinking about what you desire when you sign up for your Discovery Session. We are pleased to offer Personalized Care in English, French, and Spanish.

DEBRIEFING

Debriefing helps you process what has already occurred. It’s a time to tell your story and find meaning through guided, reflection that will help you untangle the threads of your story.

COACHING

Would you enjoy looking ahead to what changes you want to see happen in the future? Coaching facilitates new awareness to accelerate learning and growth.

SPRITUAL DIRECTION

Spiritual Direction offers you space to explore God's will and your responses to it. Increasing self-awareness in your relationship with Him aids in growth and transformation.

MENTORING

Mentoring is for those who want more input or ideas to help them make progress in a new environment. We’ll help you explore on your own before giving you our thoughts.

Any two or more approaches can be combined to meet your unique desires. When you sign up for your Discovery Session, let us know what approach you think might be a good fit. We can make adjustments later if needed.
