Therapy

Update 4th Sep ’24: I currently have a space for one new therapy client, do get in touch to see what times are possible. I also have space for one supervisee.

You can also find other IFS therapists here in the UK. My spouse Kaspa (who also has Level 3 IFS) currently has one or two spaces. If you’ve found it hard to find an IFS therapist do keep trying – it’s popular at the moment and rightly so! If you want to enquire about starting work, or if you have any other questions my email is:

About Satya (she/her)

I am human and so in my work as a therapist you will meet me as an ordinary human alongside the particular experience and expertise that I bring. It’s a privilege for me to accompany clients on their journeys, and my work is satisfying and meaningful to me.

I have been working as a psychotherapist in private practice for more than twenty years. For many years now I have mainly been using Internal Family Systems (IFS) – a gentle and powerful way of working which has revolutionised the way I practice. You can read my introduction to IFS (with puppies) here. I also offer supervision to fellow therapist or any practitioners who work with people, and am available for spiritual mentorship.

Qualifications and experience

I first trained as a person-centred counsellor in 2001. I subsequently completed a two year Buddhist psychotherapy training with the Amida Trust, and have been BACP accredited since 2005. I initially worked at Employee Assistance Programmes and in charities, and since 2003 I have been in private practice alongside my other work.

I completed Level 1, 2 and 3 of IFS training several years ago and have worked with several experienced IFS therapists and supervisors. I have co-run a Buddhist temple with my spouse Kaspa (they/them) since 2013, and am also a writer.

My work with clients tends to be weekly or fortnightly and tends to be longer term.

Spaces

See ‘update’ for whether I have any available slots and do get in touch for more information. I mostly work online using Zoom or Googlemeet but can also see clients face to face in my office in Malvern, the UK.

Session fee

My current fees are £80 for each 50 minute session. I charge a little more for non-UK clients to cover the fees. Sorry, my low cost places are currently full.
