About Andre Pai, LCSW

Hi there, I am Andre Pai (he/they). I am a Taiwanese-American therapist that grew up in Brasil and provides therapeutic services in both English and Portuguese. I have been a therapist for 5 years, working with adults and children, and have worked with complex trauma and healing in diverse settings for almost a decade. Mixing a relational psychodynamic approach with art and play therapy, I work to co-create a space with clients that is affirmative, supportive, and safe. In my work with clients, I have seen people rewrite the stories that we were taught to live by and reclaim their narrative.
Clients who tend to find their home with me are youth and adults who are processing their immigration stories, navigating acculturation, and exploring their queerness. I welcome youth, parents, and adults who are seeking emotional connection, authenticity, and a social justice lens in their therapeutic experience.
As a multiracial therapist, I think it is important to honor all of the stories we have heard about ourselves and that our families have carried from one generation to the next. I am excited to hear your story and help you re-write it from your own lens. Guided by social justice and a strong sense of ethics, I am excited to help you reclaim your narrative.
