I'm Gayathri — a counselling psychologist and reiki practitioner. I bring together the rigour of clinical psychology and the depth of holistic healing so you can move through pain, not around it.
You are already on your way.
I know what it feels like to sit with anxiety you can't explain, to search for a therapist who truly sees you, and to find healing in the most unexpected places — a crystal shop in Guildford taught me as much as my MSc at the University of Surrey.
That's why I built Fully Embody. Because real healing needs both the science and the soul. And because no one should have to choose between them.
There's a gap between clinical therapy and spiritual healing. I live in that gap — and I built this practice to fill it.
My work is rooted in evidence-based psychological frameworks built through 5 years of practice across India and the UK.
Reiki, crystal healing and tarot aren't extras — they're part of how I help you access healing that talk alone sometimes can't reach.
Every session is built around you. I bring curiosity, warmth and full presence — because you deserve more than a textbook answer.
Whether navigating a personal crisis, relationship challenges, or seeking deeper self-understanding — there is a space here for you.
One-on-one sessions tailored to your unique experience — anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, relationships, or simply a desire to know yourself better.
Relationships take work, and asking for help is a sign of strength. I work with couples navigating conflict, trust and deeper emotional connection.
Families are systems — when one part struggles, all parts feel it. I create a safe space for families to hear each other and find a way forward.
Crystal energy is subtle but real. I guide you toward the stones that align with your current needs, intentions and energetic state.
Tarot is a mirror, not a fortune-teller. I use it as a reflective tool to help you access insight and clarity when the path feels uncertain.

When I attend the session I feel very energetic and my behaviour also changed.— A.M, Individual Therapy
I felt heard. The fact that she understood my feelings and what I'm going through. She understood me without judgement.— A.A, Individual Therapy
By these sessions, my fear and tension went out.— R.I, Individual Therapy
Gayathri was able to listen patiently to everything I wanted to say. Her feedbacks and inputs were very helpful and her conversations made me realise more about myself.— E.O, Individual Therapy
The healthy space which was provided. The satisfaction of being heard and not judged. I could feel I was working with a professional who took her job very seriously and brought her A game every session. The psycho education helped a lot.— D.A, Individual Therapy
Helped me identify the things holding me back. Encouraged me to try out art therapy. I used to look at hobbies as something that we need to master rather than enjoying the process. After the therapy, my perspective has changed significantly.— N.J, Individual Therapy
Got so many insights. Made me reminisce events and taught to take the right decisions. Sessions helped me discover so many aspects of myself.— A.M, Individual Therapy
The way you helped me to change my negative thoughts and to become confident in myself.— D.A, Individual Therapy
Gayathri provides scientific explanations for why certain things happen. She also helped me understand why we tend to overeat — often due to stress or boredom. Gayathri encouraged me to start journaling and shared prompts. Reflecting on those prompts daily has helped me understand myself better and become more self-aware.— A.A, Individual Therapy
The fact that you're here — reading this, considering reaching out — is courage. I don't take that lightly.
My discovery call is completely free, completely confidential and completely without pressure. Let's see if we're a good fit.
I work with clients across India and internationally, entirely online — wherever you are, there's a space here for you.

That search is what built me into the psychologist and healer I am today. I didn't arrive here through textbooks alone — I arrived here through living.
"Healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about becoming — fully — who you already are."— Gayathri BK, Founder, Fully Embody
When I began my BA at Jain University, Bangalore — juggling English Literature, Psychology and Journalism — my plan was clear. I loved words. I wanted to tell stories, to report, to write.
Then in my second year, everything shifted. The psychology practical labs felt different from any classroom I'd sat in. My professor saw it before I did. She told me I had a rare quality: deep empathy. That I had a future as a psychologist, if I chose it.
That one conversation — from a woman who believed in me before I believed in myself — became the seed of everything you see here today.
After my MSc in Occupational and Organisational Psychology at the University of Surrey, I joined the NHS. I was grateful — it felt like the life I'd worked toward.
But behind closed doors, I was struggling. A discriminatory manager, a toxic team environment, and the quiet isolation of living alone in a foreign country accumulated slowly, then all at once. I was diagnosed with severe anxiety and mild depression.
I sought help — as I tell my clients to do. But finding a good therapist, a truly non-judgemental one, was harder than I expected. Until a psychologist was assigned to me who truly helped. I will always be grateful to him.
That gap — between clinical healing and something deeper — is what set me on the path I walk today.
I was walking through Guildford one afternoon when I noticed a small shop — light catching the stones in the window, the air carrying the most beautiful scent. Something made me walk in.
That day, I met my master. I began learning crystal healing, and it was as though a door opened inside me that I hadn't known existed. For the first time, I felt myself returning to myself — fully, not partially.
I returned to India with 5 years of experience — 2 years in the UK and 3 more here — and a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling Psychology from the University of Kerala.
In 2024, I founded Fully Embody. Not as a business, but as a commitment: that no one should have to choose between their mind and their spirit.
I work with clients across India and internationally, entirely online — because the space for healing should never be limited by geography.
It means being yourself — fully. Not a curated version, not a comparison to someone else, not the person you think you should be.
It means accepting your flaws and your beauty. Your sorrows and your blessings. Your hardships and your gifts. All of it, together, as you.
All of it is you. All of it is enough. All of it is where healing begins.
The healing I offer isn't passive. It isn't about nodding through sessions and returning unchanged. It's about something deeper — and it requires your willingness.
If you're ready to face your fear, to cry it out and find that softness is not weakness — you're exactly who I'm here for.

My discovery call is free, confidential and completely without pressure. Let's simply talk.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship pain, grief or a sense that something deeper needs to shift — I offer a space where science and soul work together.
I don't believe healing lives only in the mind. My approach integrates the best of both worlds.
In our sessions, you can expect warmth, honesty and full presence. I won't nod and send you home unchanged. I'll challenge you, gently and firmly, towards the version of yourself you're reaching for.
"I'm not here to fix you. You are not broken. I'm here to help you find your own way back to yourself — with both science and soul as your guides."— Gayathri BK

I work with clients across India and internationally. Wherever you are, there is a space here for you.
No commitment. No pressure. Just a conversation.
I'm always happy to hear from you — WhatsApp or email, whichever feels easier.
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Yes — research consistently shows that online therapy is just as effective for most concerns. Many clients find that being in their own environment helps them feel safer and more open.
Do I need to be open to holistic healing to work with you?
Not at all. If you're seeking purely psychological support, I provide that. The holistic modalities are separate services. I never impose them — you choose what feels right for you.
How long does therapy take?
There's no single answer — it depends on you, your goals and what you're working through. We review regularly so you're always in control.
Is everything I share confidential?
Absolutely. Confidentiality is the foundation of good therapy. Everything shared in our sessions remains private, with very limited legal exceptions. I'll explain this fully in our first session.
What if I'm not sure which service is right for me?
That's exactly what the free discovery call is for. Book a 10-minute conversation and I'll help you understand what would serve you best. No pressure, no commitment.
I write about the things that come up in my work — the patterns, the breakthroughs and the quiet moments where healing happens.
Exploring anxiety, emotions, patterns and the inner life — through a clinical and compassionate lens.
Anxiety isn't your enemy. It's a signal. Understanding what it's communicating is the first step toward healing.
