Let’s support diplomatic spouses & partners together

A strong diplomatic service depends on the well-being of the entire family, not just your diplomats. Spouses and partners are critical to the success of every diplomatic posting. Your ministry is trying to help them with the available resources. However, their needs are often bigger before, during or after their posting.

My work bridges that gap, offering evidence-based analysis and practical training for diplomatic spouses & partners to help reduce stress, improve individual & couple resilience, and protect and improve their mental health on a posting or back home.

You can count on me for:

High-quality research on spouses & partners’ mental health, adjustment challenges specific to your ministry's demographics.

RESEARCH PARTNERSHIP

Tailor-made workshops for outgoing spouses & partners and couples covering areas like financial dependency, identity shifts, and couple dynamics.

Pre-departure training

Annual licence for unlimited access to pre-recorded online masterclasses on the key challenges of diplomatic spouses & partners.

Frequently asked questions

  • Because supporting the partner directly impacts the performance, retention, and wellbeing of your diplomats. When the accompanying partner is well, the whole posting runs more smoothly.

  • Most briefings focus on protocol, logistics, and security. My work addresses the personal, relational, and mental health realities of relocation, the factors that often determine whether a posting is sustainable. I bring experiential & scientific expertise to the table.

  • No. I provide complete, ready-to-use training, research reports, and resources. Your task would be to connect me with the spouses & partners who need support and decide how you would like the support delivered.

  • Yes. Every ministry’s demographic, posting structure, and support policy is different. My research and training are customised to your realities so the content resonates with your spouses & partners.

  • Better-prepared couples, fewer mid-posting breakdowns or early returns, and a stronger reputation as an employer who supports the whole family.
