Possible to layout bokeh y-ticks inside plot

Question

I've got a bunch of bokeh hbar plots in which the y-axis ticks are very long:

Some are even worse than this. Can I layout them inside the plot, or is there any other way in which to handle this?

Expanding on the comment to the question:

from bokeh.io import show
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource
from bokeh.plotting import figure

ds = ColumnDataSource(dict(x=[1, 2, 3],
                           y=['a', 'b', 'c']))
p = figure(y_range=sorted(set(ds.data['y'])))
p.hbar(y='y', height=0.8, left=0, right='x', source=ds)
p.text(y='y', text='y', text_baseline='middle', x=0, x_offset=10, color='white', source=ds)
show(p)
