Toronto LifeTop 50 Most Influential Torontonians of 2018

Andrea Constand Andrea is the Executive Director and current President of HHT. Heavily experienced and passionate about empowering survivors, Andrea is dedicating her future to helping victims/survivors of sexual assault find hope, recover from trauma, and begin the journey towards healing.

Andrea became interested in helping others after having experienced a very long and arduous road to justice in the public spotlight.  While it has been a long road to justice, she has testified in not one, but two trials as a sexual assault survivor. Andrea knows how important it is to seek help and have a strong support system in place during the recovery process.

Andrea is known for being able to empathize with victims/survivors. She will patiently guide others through the emotional, physical and spiritual healing process in the SAFEAPP™ program with compassion and expertise. She brings over 15 years of experience in the health care industry, actively practices over 20 forms of body work, and continues to reach for new heights in her work as a healer and manual therapist. She is currently spending time volunteering and offering support at Victim Services Toronto, a non-profit located in downtown Toronto. She is an advocate for victims and leads discussions on breaking down the barriers that exist during the reporting and court process.

Outside of HHT, Andrea is interested in leading Healing Retreats, exploring meditation, Kriya yoga, spiritual healing, healthy eating, and keeping up with her two poodles, Chase and Devi. Photo Credit @Derek Shapton.www.derekshapton.com All Rights Reserved
