Hello! My name is Dr. Aarti Saxena, and I have over 19 years’ experience in patient care that I can draw upon to help you heal. Here’s a little more about me.
What I do
I’m a qualified psychological counsellor with an MSc in psychology (although I’m also a qualified dental surgeon with an MDS in prosthodontics). As a counsellor, I believe in a holistic approach to well-being, and specialize in helping people deal with grief and loss, relationship issues, anxiety, depression and life transitions. I work mainly with adolescents, adults and couples.
My career
Although I started out as a dental surgeon, I developed a deep interest in psychology over the years, due to many hours of interaction with my dental patients. I finally made the switch to being a full-time psychological counsellor in 2018, and founded Enso Psychological Counselling Centre in 2019.
Besides working at Enso, I’m also a part-time therapist and faculty at the Hyderabad Academy of Psychology. I’m a member of the Telangana Psychologists Association and of the Association for Contextural Behavioural Science, and am an international affiliate of the American Psychological Association. Besides an MSc. in Psychology, I also have a diploma in art therapy and am on my way to completing a diploma in child psychology.
I was presented with the Telangana Psychologists Association’s ‘Inspiring Woman Psychologist Award’ for 2021.
