Sometimes your therapist may not be able to diagnose or you were told conflicting opinions by different providers. Assessments can help clarify what is really going and what to do about it.
Meet Lisa Hua,
Registered Psychologist
My passion for therapy is the opportunity it allows us to redefine how we engage in our relationships and the world around us. I take the time to understand my clients and what might be hard to even put into words at times. I listen for how you came to be and where you want to go.
In my practice, I believe in creating meaningful, heart-felt, lasting change.
I have kept my practice small to focus on delivering services that are impactful to my clients. I also believe in treating core issues that drive symptoms.
Therapy with me is...
Experiential
Goes beyond just sitting and ranting. Meaningful change happens when we gain new perspectives, have more capacity, and discover new insights. You feel the different, not just know it.
Transparent
I lay out what you can expect so there's no surprises of what we're doing and how we're doing it.
Honest
I can tell you what I can and can't do from the start. Say the hard stuff too.
Collaborative
We co-create the change you want to see in your life. You define it, I guide it. It's not just 'one' way.
