Irina Sadakova is a therapist, educator, and facilitator with a deep passion for supporting personal transformation. She is a Compassionate Inquiry practitioner, Qigong practitioner, energy therapist, and a dedicated guide in the field of somatic awareness. Based in Sweden and originally from Russia, Irina’s work is shaped by her own healing journey, including the experience of overcoming early trauma, which informs her compassionate, intuitive, and deeply attuned approach.
Irina works one-to-one with individuals seeking change in their lives and relationships. Many of her clients come with experiences of emotional overwhelm, stress, burnout, recurring patterns, or the impact of past experiences that make it difficult to feel safe, trust, or stay connected to themselves. Rooted in curiosity, presence, and deep listening, she offers a warm and supportive space where you are invited to gently explore what lies beneath the surface, reconnect with your inner resilience, and release what no longer serves you.
Alongside her therapeutic work, Irina is deeply committed to bringing embodiment into educational systems. With a strong background in leadership, project management, and adult education, she leads groups of teachers and offers international trainings focused on somatic awareness, nervous system regulation, and sustainable, trauma-informed approaches to learning and teaching.
Her work integrates Compassionate Inquiry, Qigong, and embodied practices to support emotional and physical balance, presence, and meaningful integration into everyday life. She also offers workshops and group spaces that combine movement, awareness, and reflection as pathways to wellbeing.
Irina warmly welcomes you to connect with her—whether you are seeking therapeutic support, greater balance, or a compassionate space to be met—online or in person in Stockholm. Irina works in three languages: English, Swedish, and Russian.
