About Govinda

With over twenty years of diverse professional experience, I bring a unique blend of business acumen and psychological insight to my work as an IFS Executive Coach.

Govinda Bader, IFS Executive Coach and Therapist

After earning my Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, I honed my leadership skills as the Director of Operations for several startups in the San Francisco tech scene during the late 90s and early 2000s. This hands-on experience in the fast-paced, high-stakes world of entrepreneurship gave me a deep understanding of the challenges executives face - from navigating complex team dynamics to making tough strategic decisions under pressure.

Inspired by the power of personal growth, I later pursued a Master's degree in Integral Counseling Psychology and became an IFS therapist and coach. I took my Level 1 IFS training in 2011 and have completed the Level 3 IFS training, the highest level of training available. I'm also a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) in the state of California, bringing additional clinical expertise to my coaching practice. I now have the privilege of guiding executives from top companies like Google, Apple, Facebook, Uber, Square, and Airbnb through a journey of profound self-discovery and empowerment.

By seamlessly bridging the worlds of business and psychology, I'm able to speak your language, understand your struggles, and provide tailored IFS-based tools to help you unlock your full potential as a leader. With a warm, humorous approach and a commitment to delivering tangible results, I create a safe space for you to explore the nuances of your inner landscape - and emerge as the most authentic, resilient, and impactful version of yourself.

Whether you're seeking to improve team dynamics, navigate difficult decisions, or simply find more joy and fulfillment in your work, I'm here to be your guide on the path to lasting, positive change. With over a decade of experience in IFS and the highest level of training available, I offer a depth of expertise that can help you transform both your leadership style and your personal life.
