"The paradox of change is that change occurs when one becomes what he is, not when he tries to become what he is not."

— Arnold Beisser, Gestalt Therapy Theory

My practice is dedicated to Expats, Entrepreneurs and Digital Nomads in Valencia who have mastered the external world but seek to restore their internal ground.

Alex Zah - Gestalt Therapist
About Me

From Online Business
to Therapy

I operate an independent private practice in Valencia, serving high-performers, founders, and the international community.

My background is unique: before training as a therapist, I spent a decade in high-performance environments—building businesses and navigating the pressures of entrepreneurship across 20 countries. I understand the specific anxieties of the high-achieving mind—the constant pressure to perform, the isolation of leadership, and the feeling of being "successful on paper but empty inside."

I offer a focused, confidential space where we can slow down and examine the root causes of your burnout, loneliness, or loss of meaning.

My Qualifications
  • Gestalt Institute of Scandinavia (GIS): Advanced therapeutic training (Ongoing, EAGT & EAP accredited program).
  • Escuela Europea de Coaching (Madrid): Certified Executive Coach (ICF Level 2 Program).
  • NeuroLeadership Institute (UK): Brain-Based Coaching Certificate™.
Areas Of Focus

How I can support you

I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore what is really happening beneath the surface. Together, we can uncover aspects of you that are impossible to notice on your own.

Gestalt Therapy in Valencia

In-person therapy for English-speaking expats living in Valencia. A grounded, confidential space to work with anxiety, relationship patterns, identity transitions, and emotional overwhelm — with a practitioner physically based here.

In-Person Appointments

Therapy for Digital Nomads

Therapy for people living a location-independent life. Addressing isolation, constant transitions, loneliness, decision fatigue, and the emotional cost of always being in motion.

Specialized Remote Therapy

High-Performance Therapy

Therapy for founders and high-achieving professionals who feel pressure, anxiety, or inner friction behind performance — successful on the outside, but stretched or disconnected from the inside.

Clients Stories

Shared Experiences

"I was not happy with my life."

"I was constantly under stress, analysing and overthinking everything. Alex guided me to reconnect with myself... making decisions became significantly easier.

Gabriel Zambrano Innovation and creativity advisor

"The result was deep peace."

"One key lesson was learning to say no. As my business grew, I realized saying yes to everything was unsustainable. Alex's supportive approach felt like guidance from a mentor and friend."

Bogdan Danchuk Founder of Easily Global

"In my opinion, his sincerity and experience offer great insights that help me see my future as an entrepreneur more clearly. Additionally, his guidance saves me from making many mistakes, gives me plenty of ideas, and most importantly, he inspires me."

Dalia
Dalia Cornelia Executive Assistant

"I always say that once you become aware of the root cause of your problem (instead of just its symptoms), you have done more than 50% of the work to solve it. Alex's approach is exactly this - to find the root cause, to focus on what lies beneath the symptoms."

Mateo
Mateo Hani Relationship Coach

"Alex really help me evolve as an entrepreneur! He is super supportive and every point he directs you come from experience. I highly recommend working with Alex if you want to grow as an entrepreneur and as a person!"

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Gestalt Therapy and how does it work?
I am training in Gestalt therapy, an integrative approach rooted in humanistic and existential values. Gestalt therapy combines insights from developmental psychology, attachment theory, psychodrama, trauma work, and field theory and focuses on present‑moment awareness and the relational field.
Do you offer therapy in English?
Yes. I offer therapy in English, Hebrew, and Russian. If English isn’t your first language, don’t worry; therapy is about meaning and connection, not perfect grammar. We can find the language that makes you feel most at ease.
How many sessions are needed, and how long does therapy last?
Therapy isn’t a quick fix. Some people work through a specific issue in a few months, while others choose long‑term exploration. Individual sessions last 60 minutes and are usually scheduled weekly or bi‑weekly.
What are your therapy fees and session costs?
My fees are transparent and reflect the costs of supervision, continuous training, and professional practice. My fee is 100 euros per session.
Why is therapy expensive? (Understanding the value)
The session fee reflects more than the hour we spend together. It covers ongoing training and supervision, professional accreditation fees, therapy for the therapist (required to maintain ethical practice), rental of a confidential space, insurance, accounting, and the tools needed to run a compliant practice.
How can I book a session, and is there a waiting list?
You can book a free introductory call via the button above. If there is availability, we can start within two weeks; otherwise, you will be placed on a waiting list and contacted as soon as a space opens. Life happens, so if you need to reschedule, please let me know 48 hours in advance.
Do you work with expats, digital nomads, or locals?
Although my practice is tailored to the challenges that expats, entrepreneurs, and digital nomads face—such as cross‑cultural stress, identity loss, and loneliness—I also work with locals and long‑term residents who resonate with my approach. The core of our work is reconnecting with yourself and living from an authentic place.
Is therapy confidential and private?
The process is strictly confidential. Information is only shared if there is a clear and imminent risk to your safety or the safety of others, in accordance with ethical standards.
