Meet Your Therapist
Dr. Navvab Tadjvar
I’m Dr. Navvab Tadjvar, a licensed clinical psychologist in Beverly Hills. My background in psychology and philosophy shapes how I approach therapy, not just as a way to relieve symptoms, but as a process of exploring deeper patterns, uncovering meaning, and creating lasting change.
I provide individual therapy for teens and adults working through challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and life transitions. I also provide group therapy for teens on a limited basis.
In our work together, I provide a steady and thoughtful space to bring unconscious dynamics into awareness, so you can feel more grounded and connected in your everyday life.
"What is realized in my history is not the past definitive of what it was, since it is no more, or even the present perfect of what has been in what I am, but the future anterior of what I shall have been for what I am in the process of becoming"
— Jacques Lacan
My Approach to Therapy
Therapy with me is not about quick fixes. It’s about creating a consistent space where you can explore the deeper forces that shape your life.
Much of what drives us lives outside of awareness, our unconscious desires, defenses, and long-standing patterns. Together, we give these hidden dynamics a voice, so you can step into greater clarity and choice. My goal is to help you feel more alive, more connected, and more capable of living with a greater sense of agency.
I practice psychoanalytic therapy, which means the relationship between us is part of the healing itself. The struggles that bring you to therapy often show up in the therapy room, giving us the opportunity to work with them directly.
By paying attention to these patterns in the moment, we can transform them into new ways of relating, to yourself and to others. Over time, this process fosters growth, connection, and a deeper sense of meaning in your everyday life.
