Andrea Hui, Registered Psychotherapist
As a BIPOC immigrant Psychotherapist, I’m ready to work with you to navigate through any life challenges that may arise. I look forward to supporting you through any issues related to everyday life, major life transitions, relationships, self-identity, addictions, loss, career/life goals, motivation, anxiety, depression, and stress management. Having worked with our community’s most vulnerable and marginalized over the past 14 years, I know what it feels like to ask yourself why me? Why does this always happen to me? Why do I feel like I am behind everyone else in life? Why do I feel stuck? Good news, you are not alone!
Working with an evidence-based, trauma-informed lens and a client-centered approach, I have a keen focus on utilizing an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, sex-positive, and non-judgmental framework when working with clients. I tend to gravitate towards an eclectic, holistic and integrative therapy style. Since everyone is unique and different, it is key to be able to adapt accordingly.
Let me help you re-ignite the light that has diminished. Rediscover meaning in your life. Heal from past wounds that haven’t fully recovered. Reconnect with what used to and could potentially feel right or make sense for you. When you’re ready, I look forward to embarking on this journey of self-growth and empowerment with you!
