You don’t have to do this alone.

Whether you’re leading a team, navigating cultural complexity, or simply trying to stay sane in the chaos of change, you deserve clear guidance and thoughtful support. I’m Lee Hopkins—counselling psychologist, expat coach, and leadership consultant based in Đà Lạt. I help professionals across Vietnam (and beyond) find clarity, confidence, and connection—without the fluff.

What I can help you with:

Expat coaching
Personal support for expats who want to adapt, grow, and thrive—without losing themselves in the process.

Leadership mentoring
For professionals managing teams in cross-cultural settings. Communicate better. Lead smarter. Stay grounded.

Counselling psychology
Emotionally intelligent support from someone who understands the professional world. Sometimes it’s not just ‘work stress’.

Communication consulting
Workshops, keynotes, and audits that help teams communicate with more clarity, consistency, and impact.

Why work with me?

I’ve spent 30 years helping leaders, creatives, and changemakers find their voice—and use it wisely. With a background in psychology, business communication, and leadership training, I bring a rare blend of emotional depth and strategic insight.

More importantly, I’ve lived the expat life myself. I know what it’s like to be both at home and out of place. To lead with integrity in unfamiliar terrain. To want to be understood—not just tolerated.

“Lee helped me get my confidence back after relocating for work. His insights were practical, thoughtful, and occasionally hilarious—which made it all easier to take in.”
— Maria, Senior Leader, HCMC

You don’t need more jargon or generic advice. You need tailored guidance, grounded insight, and someone who actually listens.

“Clarity is kind. Calm is power.”
