Mrs Ivana Lukovic

Registered Psychotherapist

Verified

“I am a master psychologist & certified psychotherapist, a member of the national and international professional associations. I have extensive experience working with adults & young people of the international community, but also personal experience living as an expat in different environments.”

About Me

Having lived as an expat, I deeply understand the unique challenges of building a life abroad. My extensive experience supports adults and young people within the international community. We can work together to navigate cultural transitions and make sense of new environments. I offer a grounded space to explore your feelings, helping you find stability and thrive. This shared understanding makes me a good match for those seeking support through change.

Approach

Therapy here blends practical steps with reflective listening so you can steady yourself while adjusting to change. I see clients in Belgrade and online, offering sessions in English, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian to suit your rhythm and schedule. Sessions move at a pace you set—we notice patterns in stress, grief or relationship strain, try small experiments between meetings, and track what helps you feel more anchored. Those facing relocation, burnout or major life shifts often find this collaborative way useful.
