About Your Mom Abroad

An American living abroad since 2002, Rebecca has learned how to navigate the ins-and-outs of different cultures.  She knows that small, unfamiliar differences can feel like big challenges in the moment. An expert in bridging cultures, she excels at helping and planning, finding creative solutions, and connecting with people.  
 

Along with her French husband, Rebecca has raised two daughters in three different countries.  One is at university in the UK (currently studying abroad in Amsterdam!) and the other is finishing high school in London.
 

Rebecca’s goal at Your Mom Abroad is to take away some of the stress, anxiety and hassle of sending your child abroad.  While your young person can manage some of the "adulting" on their own, it is always nice to have someone local as a "backup mom" when times get tough.
 

A Midwest native, Rebecca has lived in London for 12 years and in Paris for 11 years before that. She graduated with a BA in psychology and art from the University of Missouri-Columbia and a master's in art therapy from The George Washington University.
