U-center Expat Treatment | U-center

Being an expat can be quite a challenge

Getting your expat life up and running in the Netherlands can be a fantastic experience, but you face many challenges. In addition to settling into a busy job, you have to deal with a different culture, an unknown language and unfamiliar customs. You have to process many of these changes on your own, and that eventually takes a toll. But you're not the only one: expats in general run a risk of psychiatric problems that is twice as high as people who never move to another country. What’s more, almost 90% experience a feeling of isolation after moving abroad. Is this familiar to you? Then U-center is here to help you.

Life as an expat can be overpowering, overwhelming you with feelings of loneliness and isolation. Having tried several times, you just can't seem to regain control of your life.

We offer an intensive programme to give you a new perspective on life. Our goal? To achieve your U-turn together in 7 weeks: the point in your life where real change takes place.
