Ashwin

Dr Ashwin Navsaria, MA

Clinical Psychologist

Evidence-based psychotherapy coupled with a warm approach to mental healthcare.

About Me

I am a clinical psychologist with experience working with adults experiencing a range of emotional and psychological difficulties. My approach to psychotherapy is integrative, drawing particularly on psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural and schema-based approaches, and is tailored to the needs of each person. I have a particular interest in helping people understand longstanding patterns in how they experience themselves, their relationships and the world around them. I aim to provide a thoughtful, collaborative and non-judgemental therapeutic space in which difficulties can be explored and meaningful, lasting change can develop.
