Description

In this heart-opening episode of The Soul Call with Kelly B, I’m joined by the inspiring Satinder Panesar — Author, Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor, Executive Coach, and a passionate advocate for supporting psychological prosperity.

We explore Satinder’s deeply personal journey from a previous career into the world of counselling, driven by a calling to make a difference from the heart. Starting out with evening counselling classes while still working full-time, Satinder has since become a leading voice in trauma-informed therapy, particularly in the field of sexual trauma.

Satinder shares powerful insights from her early work on sexual trauma helplines in the 1990s, and reflects on the privilege of hearing women's life stories — and the deep fulfilment she feels when clients tell her that working with her has changed their lives.

We also explore how her Sikh heritage, her experiences within small community settings, and her cultural understanding have profoundly shaped her work. At one point, she was the only Punjabi-speaking counsellor in Scotland, and she speaks to the urgent need for more culturally-sensitive therapy and supervision.

Satinder is a proud supporter of the Scottish Asian Counselling Services, and sees every interaction — even a simple smile or kind word — as an opportunity to make a difference. Her beautiful book, When Therapy Goes Wrong, is a collaborative project with her clinical supervisees and an honest exploration of the human side of therapy and growth.

✨ Whether you’re a therapist, a leader, or someone navigating healing and identity, this episode offers insight, depth, and soul.
